another question.. grah.. you don’t hav to answer if you ont wanna..
about your headspace, I remember a post being made about Bat-Cat showing up which got me thinking Does that just happen? Like, what is headspace like— whenever I research DID or OSDD I can’t really figure out just what headspace is like. Can someone hear headspace while fronting, see it? Or is it more like just somewhere you go when not fronting?
a headspace is basically just a little world inside our head for all of our alters to exist with each other! some systems have them and some do not! usually when we say "someone showed up in headspace" it just means theyve formed solidly as an alter enough to be visualized there. ours is a big haunted house! sometimes the fronter can hear headspace and sometimes they cannot (also this all varies from system to system, as some do not even have headspaces and some do not have any inner communication at all, this is all just about our experiences in particular)
like i said our headspace is a big haunted house and we all just kinda live there and exist with each other, alters who are fronting are still inside the headspace but they tend to kinda zone out so they focus more on the real world, but people with a lot of practice (like licorice) can better exist within both spaces at the same time and switch back and forth between what theyre focusing on (he usually uses this to give messages from the real world to alters who arent fronting)
sorry this is kinda rambly and confusing, if u need me to clarify on anything do not be afraid to ask but please note we are not a dissociative disorder professional so we're just speaking from our own experiences :]

#hehe sorry if this is confusing im not too good at explaining !#i should try to draw locations in our headspace sometime#its a very pretty place#weve had multiple different headspaces over the years they tend to change when we make a large transition in our life#i believe the haunted house change occurred from us more properly beginning a healing journey#our very first headspace is from when we were maybe 9 or 10! we remember it very well it was a large hallway lined with doors for all#our different alter rooms#surprisingly weve always been aware of our alters we have documented evidence of them dating back to around 2017 or 2018 i believe! which#was when we were a 7th grader! but thats just when we started writing diaries weve always known about them#one of our oldest known alters was back when we were in elementary school (around 4th or 5th grade) and is a winged cat introject of a#lisa frank illistration (im not sure how to spell that word) and she was our host for several years!#the mind is a facinating thing isnt it
