eugh me with my anxiety meds :(

they make me go to the doctor every 3 months or so just to make sure im still able to take the meds THAT IVE BEEN TAKING FOR YEARS???

and theyre like yeah ill give you three motnhs and then they only give you one month and RAFAFAFGAG

and three months on its own is barely anything. Give me a six month supply. Please

i dont really identify with anti-psych but i definitely identify with some of their messages. like why do i have to fight to have my adderal refilled. why do i have to have a doctor go “yeah you need this medication. heres enough for three months except im gonna write the prescription wrong so you get less than you actually need and if you run out just suffer ig” and why does the fucking pharmacy force me to call them because this drug is Worse than the others and i cant refill it online

And i shot up and was like "OH!! ACTUALLY-" And he cut me off with "no like yknow without trauma" And i had to force myself not to infodump tumblr plural culture and to just say "yeah theres a whole community around that, its a thing lol" and another friend told me after class that they saw me start VIBRATING cause i got so excited 😭

Sorry if this seems rude, I'm simply uneducated on the subject

I'm a DID system and have a theory on endogenic systems, which you seem to either be or know quite a bit about

Please tell me if there are any aspects of this you might agree/disagree on

(pls say if you agree/disagree, I'm not trying to invalidate or anything it's just a theory 😅)

Soo my current theory is that tulpas, willogenics and any kind of 'created' system are some form of maladaptive daydreaming

So, maladaptive daydreaming is a disorder (currently not medically recognised last time I checked) where one has a complex world in their head that they are actively making, imagining, with characters, a plot/plots etc. it impairs the ability to function because beings with the disorder want to always daydream/may act out the daydreams

So what if 'created systems' was a form of maladaptive daydreaming where instead of daydreaming and the plot/world, the main focus is the CHARACTERS

So consciously or subconsciously the maladaptive daydreamer or 'created system' 'switches' into the different characters and the characters all have their own identity and the 'core' of the 'created system' consciously or subconsciously acts like the characters made, thus thinking that they are multiple/plural

Idk I get the feeling I might be onto something, but who knows

Might just be my yapyapyapyapyapative AHH spitting utter nonsense

PLEASE TELL ME YOUR OPINION ON THIS IM NOT TRYING TO BE RUDE ITS A GENUINE THEORY IM NOT BEING HATEFUL IM SORRY IF I CAME ACROSS THAT WAY :[

-R

no, you dont sound hateful, and this may be controversial but in some cases, and without other coping mechanisms for stressful situations, this could be the case in some instances

i dont think this applies to all created systems obv but i do agree you may be onto something, that in some cases esp in cases where systems are created on purpose as a coping mechanism. not all systems but i do think many who identify as having intentionally fostered the creation of a system likely did so as a means of companionship, stress relief, or aid in daily activites. and like all things, that can become maladaptive. the key is that maladaptive daydreaming is inherantly HARMFUL, so this only applies if their systemhood becomes a detriment to their life.

in my opinion, it could be possible for someone to develop a system as a result of maladaptive daydreaming, and also for the maladaptive daydreaming to BE the systemhood/members if that makes sense. Caused by the thing (and still present once the daydreaming subsides) versus being a part of the thing (and going away once the daydreaming is treated)

DISCLAIMER, however, i want to emphasize that you not fall into the trap of trying to go for people and specifically suggest that they might be a maladaptive daydreamer. that just seems all too similar to going into someones acc and saying "youre delusional" and feels hurtful and devalidating to many. this information is useful, but it is not your place to claim that specific systems are experiencing this, unless they say so publicly themselves first.

rei isnt fronting right now so apologies if i sound a little different, but i havent opened tumblr in a hot second and this has been marinating in the askbox for a while so im just going to answer it (also!! i see you are anon and i do not want to blast you publicly if you dont want to bc this community can be hateful at times, but if youre comfy, dm me!! You seem like a very interesting person to talk to or at least follow, i wanna know who you are 🙏)

no friendship like a New Guy going through The Horrors™️ for the first time and the alter who’s experienced it all

[reisspecialcorner]

mundane plurality is guys. guys I'm trying to count. guys please stop shouting random numbers at the front room it's not funny anymore plea

Real. It's like "chat please..."

[reisspecialcorner]

Idk, art???

Art is pretty rad, yeah.

- 🎶🔪 + ?

ofc!! ive been waiting for an excuse to draw my headmates, thx for giving me the idea!!

[reisspecialcorner]

DID rooted in childhood trauma = not endo

DID without presence of childhood trauma = piece of shit

hey, thanks for asking about how i identify!! i dont claim to have DID. hope this helps <3

[reisspecialcorner]

Endos stop pretending to have severe trauma on the internet for cool points challange

um???? sorry, not only is this fakeclaiming endos, but ALSO traumagenics, do your fucking research.

yes i have trauma, no i do not think i have DID. the two things can coexist. yes i am plural. that is a symptom, not a whole disorder :) i do not experience other symptoms of DID, therefore i do not have it. i am not claiming to, thx

also when have i ever bragged about having trauma??? give me an example.

(/gen, if i actually have pls correct me bc i never intended to and im willing to admit im wrong)

having trauma does not inherently mean i 100% link it to being plural. there are many factors which influenced my syscovery. yes i identify as traumagenic, but that does not mean i have DID. theyre not the same, most endos are not claiming it is

also does it look like i care about gaining cool points?? i have 2020 style edited pinkie pie as my pfp man take a guess lol i am fully aware im not a cool kid :P its giving insecure.

esp considering youre too much of a coward to confront someone off anon. if youre not doing anything wrong, why hide your identity hmm?

[reisspecialcorner]

So glad nevergonnagiveyouupbyhitsingerickastleygenic and nevergonnaletyoudownbyhitsingerrickastley systems are finally getting some representation <333

...Also yes?

Well there you have it folks, all systems are NeverGonnaGiveYouUpbyhitsingerRickAstleygenic.

And if you have never heard of this song before, you are FAKING. GET OUT.

i wish -genic labels weren’t such an important thing in the plural community

like yeah our system formed bc of trauma. it maybe also formed because of neurodivergence because being autistic is, imo, inherently traumatizing in modern society

yes we are traumagenic but are we multigenic? autigenic?

…BUT not all of our headmates were created because of trauma. some were just created bc we needed a guy for a job. some were also created on purpose- ex, forming someone’s sourcemates/partners???? and some also just showed up!! for no reason!!!!

are those specific headmates endogenic? willowgenic??? one of our sidesystems calls themselves traumawillow because they like the term, what does that make the other ones??

it’s so odd and complex and i wish the community wasn’t so label oriented :/ like obviously use the labels you like!!! but i wish we could just be plural without people, other plurals even, asking why, yk?

Hey — you all do know there’s a difference between saying “This is how it works” and “In my experience, this is how it works,” right?

“Endos are fighting to demedicalize systemhood.” No, they aren’t, not how it works. “In my experience, endos have often been fighting to demedicalize systemhood.” Fuck man, I’m sorry you’ve experienced that.

“Anti-endos are all monstrous and hate all endos.” Factually untrue. “In my experience, anti-endos have hated all endos and were monstrous.” I’m sorry, that’s horrific, you didn’t deserve those experiences.

“I feel like every mixed origin system is actually just being groomed.” Cool! Your feelings are completely factually incorrect and it’s wrong to assume others experiences, especially about something so serious. “Based on my experiences, many mixed origin systems were just being groomed.” Shit, I’m sorry, that’s a lot to deal with.

Once we started shifting to the latter rather than the former, it became easier for people to understand what we were suggesting was fact, and what we were venting about as our own personal experiences. We also then could gain perspective on how often I defaulted to absolute language, and realize it’s not always the case of what I experienced. That helped me have more hope for the world, which in turn helped me be less depressed.

”I want to know your headcount” “I want to know who’s fronting” so do I, get in line

[reisspecialcorner]

imagine how much of a fucking horrible person you have to be that on the first day your elected into office the crisis calls of a Suicide Prevention Project Go Up 33%. The Trevor Project Received over 1,400 Call By Early Monday Afternoon. Most of those calls, if not all, are coming from children. Children scared of you and what you will do. Imagine how much power and how horrible you have to be to do that.
