I might come back to this blog, cause although I’ve processed through all the traumas, I’ve still got DID/OSDD and I’m finding out just how much that counteracts me trying to be as honest, real and authentic as possible. My brother’s girlfriend suggested I should go back to therapy and is helping me look for a therapist, and whether she finds the right one or not, it’s inching me in a good direction.

Getting functional with DID can feel like...
- I probably have a subsystem, but I'm applying for jobs so I don't really care about that right now
- Some of us have never experienced a long-term psychotic episode before because they were inactive before our symptoms started manifesting. It's alright, we'll give them the spark notes now and the full rundown when we feel better.
- "THIS IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD THIS IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD THIS IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD."
- I'm not quite sure who I am, but we're *all* [name] and that's enough to pick up our prescriptions
- Someone's co-conscious and IDK who, but let's go get coffee together because we're *going* to get along, god damn it
- All of the scariest parts look like adults (or monsters), but they're kids. We have to talk to them like they're scared children, and they scream a little quieter.
- "THE WORST THINGS THAT COULD'VE HAPPENED TO US HAVE ALREADY HAPPENED. WE CAN DO THIS."
- I don't need to know how everything works. We're all strong and smart: we can figure it out as we go and be ok.

Having survived abuse from people with mental illnesses, I know the urge to warn others to be wary of those mental illnesses. I know how often it can feel like that is your only power in life…the only action you can take against what you went through. But listen. Just because a mentally ill person caused you complex trauma, doesn’t mean you get to generalize and slander and malign every person with that mental illness.
You do not have to forgive your abusers. but you do have to heal without spreading stigma and misinformation. you do have to heal without antagonizing or dehumanizing others who are also just trying to heal. you have to help break the cycle. because nobody can heal alone.

Are you really a terrible person, or are you reacting to a toxic environment the only way you know how?

"Delayed triggers" happen. Sometimes, you might not notice your trigger and get triggered later when you do. Brains work in mysterious ways. It's okay. You're not faking or being attention-seeking for it.

DO and DON'T about somebody with any kind of DID or OSDD
✅ask about pronound
✅ask if person want to make phisical contact
✅respect boundaries
✅wait if alter is rude or harmful for u. They will leave and another alter will get to front
✅be patient with littles and and animal-acting alters. It is hard and boring sometimes, but it happend
❌try to switch alter for somebody who you need
❌ask to switch
❌trigger person to see a flashback. It's painful
❌say that an alter is evil, even if another alter said that. Sometimes alters are really evil, but most of the time they just need some care
❌ask about trauma. If person wants, they will tell you about that.
❌try to be persons psycotherapist. It's not your job, and you can cause harm

I always feel so out of place even in system communities. Does anyone else relate at all??
Like, idk some system memes are cool and relatable bc obviously not everything is gonna line up, but so much of it doesn't click with us.
We've almost never been put off by the voices, we all wanna communicate, we don't think less of each other or think 1 deserves more front time than anyone else, etc. Idk, there's so many memes about denial and eating each other's food and all this distress. Which is i know, a major part of many system's lives. Part of what makes a meme is the repeatability and a lot of systemhood IS struggles in that area.
But what about systems who do everything right (in the sense that we have healthy coping and such)? What about systems who unconditionally love each other and dissociative barriers are something we work around instead of fighting? What about the systems who love the voices?

If your advocacy for truama/abuse survivors isn't inclusive of
Survivors who are not women
Survivors who developed hypersexuality
Survivors with personality disorders
Survivors with anger issues
Survivors with did/osdd
Survivors with substance abuse issues
Then maybe you should start making an effort to make it. I'm not asking anyone to shift focus to a topic they don't understand, but you dont have to become an expert in hypersexuality or personality disorders to not actively exclude or demonize them

survivors of abuse, you’re valid now matter who knows your story
you’re valid if you don’t know your story
you’re valid if your headmates know your story, but you don’t/only know parts (for systems)
you’re valid if other people seem to know your story, but you don’t/only know parts
you’re valid if you only know parts of your story
you’re valid if you’re the only one who knows your story
you’re valid if the only other people who know your story is your abuser(s)
you’re valid if you thought you knew your story, but are slowly discovering more
you’re valid if you know you know your story but keep quiet about it
you’re valid if you know your story but only tell a few people
you’re valid if you openly share your story, or if you go out of your way to share your story
you’re valid if you don’t have any support and aren’t seeking it
you’re valid if you don’t have support and are seeking it
you’re valid if you do have support
you are valid, everyone heals at a different pace
endos may interact with this post, but our blog is anti endo

If you were faking, you wouldn't keep finding more stuff to be upset about!
If it was all fake, you wouldn't lie in a pool of your own tears, unable to stop derealizing/depersonalizing because of flashbacks.
If it was all fake it wouldn't hurt like this.
