I have just made a horrible discovery. I share my birthday with Vladimir Putin
At least, we were not born the same year. I feel like moving to a different planet so that the dates would be different.
Can I self-identify as someone a couple of days older or younger?

I think that would be fine and I refer you to the case of Donald Findlay QC https://www.thefreelibrary.com/Findlay+swaps+birthday+to+beat+blues.-a060570043

Of course he might not want to swap a birthday with Donald Findlay. I might not, but then I am born on the Double Tenth. If you are a Chinese Nationalist, that is important.

Re: Discovery
I feel a lot happier now.
I have found out that I also share my birthday with Desmond Tutu.

When Covid first hit the headlines, and they told us being male or old were risk factors, I thought I should identify as a young woman so I'd be immune.
It worked. When I eventually got it (March this year), it wasn't serious.

I tried that, but the police came around and started asking me awkward questions about my social media activities.
