I'm unsure if this is the right place to ask a question like this, but I think I need advice
We are a P-DID system, or at least we think we are. We have began to question polyfragmented / complex DID because we have a lot of the signs / symptoms (most of our alters are level 4 fragments / not developed too much past their role, we have a large innerworld with multiple layers, we have around 11 known subsystems, some group some alter-in-alter, we have complex splitting structures / we split tons of alters from even the tiniest amount of stress and stuff like that). But we're unsure if we're actually polyfragmented because we're pretty sure we're P-DID and many people have been saying you can't be complex / polyfragmented while being P-DID. (We're pretty sure we have P-DID because our host acts as a dominant alter and is always in front, hes never left front to our knowledge, and we don't really have too much amnesia other than greyouts and emotional amnesia)
its ok! things are a bit chaotic right now but i will try to answer as diligently as i can.
we can relate to this actually. we also thought we had P-DID but then discovered that we have alters of varying degrees of dissociation/amnesia/elaboration. thats not all to it but i will explain that in a bit.
you are right with OSDD/P-DID not being able to be polyfragmented. the theory of structural dissociation explains that well and its basically impossible to have a less dissociated system structure but still be polyfragmented since its not just "a lot of alters".
what helped us with these things is trying to keep an open mind and keeping in mind that labels arent an absolute. we really wanted to find our label too and that can help at first but dont get stuck on finding it or get stuck on putting yourself into a box. that can have more of a negative effect than you might think.
second off, its ok to have grey-outs and emotional amnesia even if you are a polyfragmented system. the varying levels of dissociation mean that there wont just be one huge blackout, because the system was built on maintaining covertness. blackout amnesia isnt by far the norm and not necessary for a complex structure.
if you believe that you have multiple levels of alters, layers, subsystems, a complex inner world, a lower splitting tolerance or other splitting patterns, complex fronting patterns, a lot of fragments, etc (ik you mentioned some of those), then its perfectly reasonable to assume you have a complex/polyfragmented structure and say you are a complex/polyfragmented system and taking the label. in the end if you feel comfortable with things then thats what counts.
also you can have the switching style of a P-DID System because of how your system had to develop in terms of covertness, but that doesnt mean that P-DID is all there is, yknow. like i said before, we can relate because we once thought the same thing. but non-possessive switching is a thing and its just as valid as full on possessive switching. its way more common too and especially for polyfrag systems not to have full/entire switches also due to the number of fragments we often have.
i hope i answered everything. if you have more questions or need a clearer answer then please dont hesitate to ask! i am a bit out of order and very dissociated so things might read a bit weird but ill try my best to answer stuff!!

So I heard about dilf Alan-
...but i couldn't find any references or art of him tho, weird. Damn, dilfs aren't my soup, but i decided to give it a try anyway lol
Y'all can't imagine how WEIRD it feels to draw after a year of total stagnation. I forgot how to use liner, and forgot ALL THE SHAPES AND MY OWN STYLE, FOR FUCK SAKE--
Someday... i will re-learn 🎇

OK SO HERE IT GOES
Ok so story time: This was commissioned by the lovely (not to mention patient and supportive) @greypistacchio for her monumental fic Pieces of Paper we Hold, and it’s going to be the cover for the printed version she’s going to sell to raise money for SA survivors. It’s a great initiative and it comes with loads of merch from super talented artists so go.check.it.out. cuz it’s all kinds of awesome! (For real, the art for the merch is superb 😍)
Also it was my first commission ever 🤯 Nearly crapped my pants with nerves, but Gee was crazy enough to entrust it to me and I couldn’t be more grateful cause I’m kinda proud of the result and to be part of a project like this.
Some progress shots under the cut just for fun

Riddle with 17 (spring clothes) or 18 (fall clothes) please!! (I can't decide lmao) Thank you and have a wonderful day!!!
17. Spring Clothes (i guess?)
ironically despite being part of the wonderland wackos, this dorm rings to me as the most “i am just normal.” Which makes no sense but call it an excuse for un-remarkability on my end
