Reading a paper on synesthesia of all things would be like discovering a whole new level of disappointment and boredom in one.

Not saying you should write your paper on it, just food for thought.

Gender Dysphoria and DID aren't really similar disorders. A closer relative to Gender Dysphoria is Body Dysmorphic Disorder.

Go for BPD, IMHO. It's literally one of the interesting ones out there. An individual confusing obsession for love-- false thoughts of abandonment. Emotionally unstable and some other sh, but yeah. I would do a research on BPD. I would like to understand it more myself.

I don't know, if I do that I would just do DID and talk about branches of it, like Gender Dysphoria

but i stil really like synesthesia

Every day I take prescription pills which are covered by my medical insurance that alter my brain & body chemistry.

Sounds like a disorder to me.

A lot of people get offended by it because it's classified as a mental disorder

Also I am really really liking and considering synesthesia

The mere existence of DID is widely debated among clinical psychologists. Though that could actually make for a decent paper topic.
