#fictional introjects

[zakeno]

Do you know a fictive alter? Learn a little more about fictional interjects this System Saturday- er, I mean, Sunday! 🖤

[alters-journal]

Okay I got a question for systems who were programmed.

Don't feel pressured to RB this AT ALL for your own safety.

Introjects being factives, fictives, mixes, songtives, etc. (dont like those terms but for a wider understanding)

Hey, all you Les Misérables fictives; yes, you. It’s gonna be okay. We know these next few days are gonna be so hard. But, it’ll be okay. We’ll make it through. And, if you all need something, you can talk to us, okay? You can message us or send us an ask if you want. We’re here for you, and while we may not know exactly what you went through, or remember, or feel, we know what it’s like to go through Barricade Days. It’s gonna be okay. Okay? :)

Sincerely, Two Les Mis Fictives

tw for local child trafficking

i don't know if i actually was programmed or not. i believe that i was programmed to be a certain figure who committed suicide after betraying their master, and have had that belief since i, as an alter, manifested. i was trafficked locally starting after the age of 4 and lasting 4 or so years. is it possible that local people who were paying my mom's ex-boyfriend to use my body for sexual intent to have programmed me? or for him himself to have? i can't find any sources and it's causing me significant challenges in my day to day life.

i'm sorry this ask is all over the place, i just need some answers if you're willing/able to give any

Your question is perfect. No worries.

I can’t say if you were programmed. That is something you will need to take your time in discovering if you were or weren't.

I can say there are types of alters that fit your description. Introjects are alters that are based on outside people or characters.

Fictional introjects are based on fictional characters. These characters can be from television shows, movies, books, fantasy, and other forms of fiction.

I love you fictives with problematic or hated sources. I love you fictives that're terrified of showing up and existing around others because of terrible things that your sourceselves, source content, or creators have done. I love you whether or not the hate toward that fiction is justified because you're not your exact fictional source. You're real. I love you fictives that desperately try to explain yourselves and your situation because it was so different from the inside and you're trying so hard to be better. I love you fictives whose identity and experiences still mean a lot to you, and you're working every single day to balance that with the reality of media either harmful or perceived as harmful.

You're real. You're people. Your existence is not inherently terrible or amoral- only you decide your impact on this world.

[mynameis-a]

reading fanfic and being all like “he would not fucking say that” is even worse when you literally are one of the characters

Can't believe my toddler brain got traumatized so hard that 20 years later a part of me broke off and morphed into a goddamn cartoon man because I consumed some trash media while my life was hell

[a-system-of-nerds]

It’s really weird having multiple introjects of one character. Like, there’s similarities between them but also they can be so different from each other but come from the same/similar source material. Wild.

alternatives to some system terms!

brainmade - headmade

fictive - fictroject, fictional introject

factive - factroject, non-fiction introject

octive - octroject, oc introject

mixtive - mixtroject, mixed introject

headspace - brainspace, mindspace

made cause ik some systems don't like using these terms, if you have any others that aren't endo coined please tell and I'll add them!

[chaos-in-one]

introject culture is knowing damn well people would be weird about me if I started being open about what my sources are again

Fictionfolk

"Fictionfolk is an umbrella term for many sorts of identities that come partly or wholly from fiction. Fictionkin identify as characters or species from fiction, and their community started in the early 2000s. A plural system member with origins from fiction is a fictive, which psychologists call a fictional introject. When someone has the brief experience of becoming someone or something from fiction, that’s a fictionflicker, which psychologists call experience-taking."
