One of the worst parts (of many) of admitting that you're a system is realizing that you were traumatized, that you were a child who went through things that a child should never have to go through.

oh sure when actors playing a character with DID or otherwise acting as multiple people in one body switch between alters on screen they're "such a talented actor" and you "get chills" but when I, actual diagnosed DID system, switch in front of you, it's "scary and unnerving" and you "no longer know how to talk to me".

When you're dissociating and someone asks you if you're okay

i can’t believe this apparently needs to be said but y’all. cult jokes are not funny. things like calling yourself a cult leader, calling a friend group or a fandom a cult, joking about starting a cult, ARE NEVER FUNNY. jokes like these diminish the seriousness of cults and spit in the faces of actual survivors. the only time making cult-related jokes is okay is if you are a cult survivor joking about your own trauma.

sincerely, an exhausted cult survivor

friendly reminder that plurality is caused by trauma. trauma is defined as an event that has a severe negative impact on oneself. there are going to be dark parts of plurality that no one wants to talk about. the brain created you to cope with what it went through. it's okay to have parts (or wholes) that have “twisted” desires, attractions, innerworld or external relationships, sexual or emotional needs, etc. other people might call you disgusting, evil, immoral, but it's just part of being traumatized. it's going to be unpleasant or unsightly.

Don't out people as systems. Ever. Not unless you have their explicit permission.

We were out at the mall with the hosts partner, who is also apart of a system. And while talking to a worker, the worker did something and said "oh I'm so stupid, my bad"

And the hosts partner just responds so casually with "oh we're both alter systems, so we've got plenty of stupidity to go around don't worry about it" and gestures between us and them.

It seems so small but it scared us so badly that we ended up in a very painful dissociative state the rest of the day.

If you can be casual about your system to strangers that's great. But never assume that other systems are the same way, regardless of how open they are with you about it.

This is just a reminder that

Systems that don't fit into a box are valid

Agere / petre people are doing no harm and they deserve every drop of love anyone can give

Therians are so amazing and I hope you guys keep being yourselves!

Singlets who respect, even if they don't understand something, deserve love

Neopronoun users are so valid, and you guys should totally share your pronouns in the comments so I don't steal them /j

Fictives from problematic sources are not their source and will always be valid and accepted to me

Those who practice witchcraft should interact with me so I can find some super cool friends

You guys should all be our friends because you all seem suppperrr cool, and I want to brag to people that my friends are so cool and amazing

reading fanfic and going "they would not fucking say that" every 5 minutes because you know those fuckers personally

[quoigenicfromhell]

I think more of you guys need to be in mixed origin servers for old fucks only. I think it would probably help. Talk to systems in their late 30s and realize that the origincourse doesn't matter and strictly dividing people into boxes just does not fuckin work

Cupid the Heart Pup!!! This was so much fun, inspired by @rileys-castle amazing art!!

Working on my coloring journal and hope to post more soon!

"you have a lot of introjects" you say that to me in a bad way because apparently it bothers you more that I am a system with several introjects than that I was (and i am) traumatized

[inkdollie]

OKAY SO WE’RE PLAYING ACE ATTORNEY AND OUR EDGEWORTH AND PHOENIX ARE TAKING TURNS, COMPETING OVER WHO PRESSES THE RIGHT THING THE MOST TIMES

BUT THE THING IS THEY BOTH FUCKING SUCK AT THIS AND IT’S THE FUNNIEST THING EVER

[gremmything]

Hanging out with friends who are also autistic/systems/have adhd is so fucking wonderful. Wdym you know I'm listening without me sitting perfectly still and corcing myself to make eye contact?? Wdym I can stim when I feel the need and not suppress it??? Wdym I can multitask and let someone else doodle while I listen and engage in a convo???? Crazy. Insane, even. /pos

[dark-full-moon-system]

So, we're looking for traumagenic systems/collectives who would like to be our friends

You know who we have in our system, it's only a list but I hope that's okay for now, and we'd love to learn about your alters!

We don't have anyone irl to talk to about the system or about the alters and we know some of us have the need to do so

So, don't hesitate to hit us up!

me: ohhh I feel so fake I’m not a real sys :/ we all just act the same…. not very DID of us :(

my friend: no actually the littles talk so fast over call and Vaz has a very deep voice but also Eshe or Moira have a brighter bubbly voice, you guys even look different in the pics you send me, I can see it in your pose and your smiles, also you laugh so different which is so interesting and-
