#Multiself

[sage-thee-herbmaster]

Fiction Self

A multiself term where you have such a deep connection to fictional character that this fictional character becomes a self (basically an alternate term for fictionkin)

[maggotz-in-my-heart]

Transmultiself

A transID when one identifies as/feels as though they should be multiself

I could have sworn that at some point I saw a transmultiself flag, I don't know if it's just lost somewhere and I couldn't find it, or if my brain just made up that I saw one lol

Either way, I went ahead and made myself a flag for it :b

Coining Post!! 🔗👥 Multiself / Multiselves !!

Definition ::

Multiself is an umbrella term for any singlet/singlet adjacent being that experiences multiple identities/selves. The term also applies to individual sysmates that share the experience, provided the sysmate/s in question identify as multiself independently from the rest of the collective.

Mulitself beings may or may not "switch" between selves, though multiself is explicitly separate from the plurality spectrum and does not describe multiple consciousnesses/distinct people. However it's important to note that SOME parasian/plurallet experiences may fall under the multiself umbrella

• You can identify as both transplural/transmedian and multiself at the same time, in the same way that you can identify as a both a boy and a girl at the same time. Trans identity is very complex, and often paradoxical in nature

• Generally switches are amnesia free and voluntary, but this is definitely more of a guideline than a hard and fast rule. (I myself have light amnesia, and experience "switches" more as kinshifts rather than a conscious choice.)

• Multiself is inherently tied to transid, in the sense that selves have their own distinct sets of transids. Though notably, the amount in which the selves differentiate depends on the individual. On one end of the spectrum, one's selves may be extremely different in name, appearance, age, race, gender etc. On the other end of the spectrum, one's selves may be entirely identical except for each selves trans/trispersonality ids

Language ::

(Note: this is general language for the umbrella term, and may not be applicable to more specific labels that fall underneath it)

Shift (verb): The experience of changing selves

"I'm shifting into Mallory"

Form (verb): The experience of forming new selves

"I formed Riley yesterday"

Mindset (noun): The term used to describe which self you currently identify as

"I'm in Monty and Jamie's mindset right now"

Primary self (noun): The self you most commonly identify as

"I'm in Darce's mindset most often, they're my primary self"

Selves are not separate consciousnesses, though we/us language is also acceptable if you feel more comfortable using it. If you wish to refer to all your selves at once, but want to avoid being mistaken for a system, you could simply say "my selves", or "my cluster"

Flag colours ::

Those that choose to have multiselves: dark pink

Those that do not choose to have multiselves: light pink

Those that experience their selves as being "alter egos" for the main self: grey

Those that are at their core consciousness, experiencing selves that are all equally them: white

Those that have fluid selves, in any sense: lilac

Those that have static selves: light blue

Distinction from plurality: dark blue

Why was this coined?

This label was a reaction to segreID. At first glance the two terms seem very similar, but there are some key differences such as my far laxer approach to including those that identify with some form of plurality. This label is not meant to act as a recoin, nor is it meant to "out-inclusive" the segreID coiner, vampi-rq.

I wanted to create a less specific term that would include me, and anyone else that shared the majority of my experiences

While there is conflict between me and vampi-rq, I still have a lot of appreciation and respect their term and how it was intended to be used. The multiself label is personal to me, and it was born out of respect for the segreID definition rather than in spite of it. SegreID exists to describe a much more specific experience, and it's one that simply doesn't apply to me, which I'm fine with

All thumbs are fingers, but not all fingers are thumbs

While by definition segreID does happen to fall under the multiself umbrella, that does not mean that 100% of the things described here apply to it. Vampi-rq has been explicit about what is and is not segreID. I encourage you to do your research and pick the appropriate label for what you're experiencing. The multiself label is intentionally very vague and nonspecific

This term is made to be a replacement for the now retired term! The definition's are different and should be accounted as such! This is just made to make talking about any/all the terms together easier.

This most likely is not the complete list, but I don’t plan to edit this post for it. Terms under this are up to those who choose to use it. I will not force anyone too and will only truly do so for my own products, if you choose too have fun!

alt multiself flag since zi dont fully like the original one and zi dont want to use one thats super tied to discourse (plus it seems like all the alt flags completely ignored the meaning behind the original flag and just made flags that mean nothing). stripe meanings are the same as the original, the only major change is that zi made the light blue purple instead and made the gray a warmer gray. this is a discourse-free flag woohoo

Aspect self

A multiself term for a character, person or even a persona that represents a specific aspect of yourself like a single personality trait, a disability that you have, a part of your queer identity, your interests etc.

This is different from a projection self, as a projection self is usually a preexisting character/person that you attach an aspect of yourself to, while an aspect self is a character/persona that is a visual representation of that specific trait (or aspect).

[piratesparrotdraconian]

i did not know that polymind has so much anti-endo history/connotation in it. i'm sorry if any endogenic systems have felt uncomfortable or think i'm anti-endo. but i genuinely do not know of a different term i can use for myself?

idk, I'm just wondering if I'm a regular singlet that gets intense mental shifts or not, but I've always resonated with the plural community in some way without actually feeling like a system and being uncomfortable with seeing my two minds as separate individuals.

what made me feel polyminded is the fact that I get nonhuman mental shifts that are extremely intense and sometimes they talk to each other, but in the subpersonality way, not in the system headmate way. yk??

main reason I feel uncomfortable being seen as 2 instead of 1 and being called a system is because of BPD-related symptoms and identity issues. i do feel like one being... just a being who's torn between two worlds. DIFFERENT FLAVORS, you could say.

thinking if I should go back to calling myself multipysche but idk if that fits :( help and advice are deeply encouraged pls
