Here’s my metaphor for systemhood that I tell my singlet friends.

Imagine you’re playing a first person video game. You have the controller, you control your character. It’s a normal first person game. You are an alter, the character is the body. This is fronting.

Other people live with you. Sometimes, they come into the room and sit and watch while you play. They sometimes try to guide you, give you advice on what to do next. They don’t always agree, and they can argue with each other. Other times they scream at you that you’re doing everything wrong and you suck at this game. This is co-consciousness.

Imagine how distracting it would be for people around you to tell you what to do, or to scream at each other or at you, even if they have good intentions. It wouldn’t be easy to focus on your game, would it?

Then sometimes, something happens in the game that prompts you to hand off the controller to someone else so they can play and you get a break. This is (some types of) switching. This can be good.

Other times, someone rips the controller out of your hand or fights you for it. This is (other types of) switching. And sometimes, six other players hook up their controllers, but there’s only one character to play as. So all of you have your controllers, but you’re all trying to play the same character. This is cofronting.

Imagine how difficult that would be. Imagine how hard it would be to try and play a game while someone is trying to take the controller from you, or while six other people are trying to play too.

There are also times that nobody is playing, or you can’t decide who should play. What’s happening to the character in the game? What are they doing if no one is playing? This is dissociation. The character is doing nothing. They’re stuck.

This is the best metaphor I have come up with for being a system. It’s something a lot of people get because they’ve played games before.

Some reminders for systems out there:

- you do not have to fit stereotypes, even if they are formed by the community

- small systems are still systems

- large systems are valid and real

- switching a lot is valid

- switching only a little is valid

- not noticing when switches occur is normal

- being a headmate who is almost always in front or co-con is normal

- being a headmate that almost never fronts is normal

- having many fictives/factives is normal

- having few to no fictives/factives is normal

- having communication issues is normal

- having amazing communication from the start is normal

- hearing voices is normal

- hearing them only with focus or not at all is normal

- understanding headmates through different means, such as feeling what they feel, or having them write things to you is valid

- not fitting coined system roles is normal

- enjoying and fitting coined roles is normal

- almost fitting a term and using it to describe your role is valid

- having no name for your system is valid

- having multiple names for your system is valid

- having stretches of silence from your headmates is normal

- having moments of extreme activity from your headmates is normal

- being frontstuck happens! just do your best, you’re awesome.

- what you see online is not every experience a system has, and they are likely just as varied from other systems as you are, just in different ways <3

being a system is varied and complex for every single system, nobody and no system has to fit into a box to be real, don’t fakeclaim yourself based off of other systems experiences.

Sometimes you do gotta do that thing that is detrimental to your health. Self care is sometimes harmful, and yes it’s confusing, but needed.

It’s helped me to think of juggling balls, only some are rubber and some are glass. I can let the rubber ones fall — I’d prefer not to, because they bounce everywhere and make a mess, but they’re harmless, but they can fall. The glass ones can’t — they’ll shatter and break, and that’ll hurt me a lot more than rubber.

Remember: you can let the rubber ball fall. You can go one day without brushing your teeth. You can go one night with a bad sleep schedule. You can do something that means you “dropped the ball.”

Especially if it means preventing a glass ball from falling.

-User boxes about us-

[dissociativediscourse]

ID: A userbox with a black-and-white scale-patterned background. There is a black-and-white image on the left, which is a kaleidoscope-style pattern resembling a Rorschach ink blot. On the right, there is purple text stating: “This user doesn’t care about discourse around the validity of endogenics and would rather address misinformation about DID and issues within the DID community.” End ID

Made a userbox for myself and anyone else who feels like it fits. :) Please reblog and credit @dissociativediscourse if you use!

Why I ( as a Romani person) Hate the Labrys flag.

This info graphic describes the following; the meaning of the flag and incorrect use of symbols, use of facist symbols, the flags resemblance to Ordine Nuovos flag, The harm and commodifying of the death of Romani, Sinti, and Jewing people( heavy focused on the Romani aspect thought) and why its an issue.

Thank you for reading, reblogs encouraged!

[doomsdayradio]

anyways as a DID system who used to think they were mixed origins, ANPs are not "endogenic alters" and having them doesn't make you mixed origins😭

[equalsys]

Many pro-endo systems have begun saying that anti-endos should be considered a hate group. I am curious syscoursers thoughts on this.

[hc-did-culture-is]

Welcome

Welcome to hc-did-culture-is version two. 

Long story short, the main account this blog was run out of got deleted, so here we are making this blog a second time! 

Sorry to everyone that was following us before, we hope you managed to find us again.

We noticed a number of plural culture blogs, but none for hc-did, so here this is!

Blanket trigger warning for tbmc/dbmc, ramcoa, torture, and programming

This account is syscourse neutral.

Asks that regard/involve syscourse will be tagged with #syscourse.

Asks that are pro endo will be tagged with #pro endo

Asks that are anti endo will be tagged with #anti endo

This is so that people can block content they don’t wish to see, but also ensures no one feels silenced or censored. 

non hc-did/programmed systems and singlets are welcome to interact, but please do not send culture-is asks. 

for those that *do* send in asks, feel free to get more specific than just ‘hc did culture is’

EG ‘questioning hc did culture is’ or ‘hc did gatekeeper culture is’

you can also submit more alter or program specific asks if you wish.

EG ‘beta alter culture is’ or ‘[name of script] script programmed system culture is’

if something is labelled as a vent, or clearly a vent we will tag it as #vent for filtering purposes.

#highly complex answers is for not-culture asks that want information and/or advice. We are not an expert or a professional, please take all our responses with a grain of salt.

#highly complex mapping is for descriptions of how different systems map their innerworlds and alters

this blog runs on a queue, so please be patient, nothing except hate will be intentionally deleted.

No set DNI or BYF, other than above mentioned blanket TWs

Today’s out of context fictive quote:

“YOU’RE TELLING ME I COULD’VE BEEN BARBIE?”

[pos-syscourse]

You never need to respond to that person. In fact, you owe it to yourself not to.

It’s easy to feel like you need to defend yourself; that you “owe it” to people, somehow, because of their demands. It’s a common trauma response as well — fawning to people who are often absolute strangers due to that fear of an unsafe situation, even when you’re perfectly safe.

You owe these people nothing!

You’re a user on a tumblr blog. You are not an idol or a martyr or up on a pedestal; you’re just you. Don’t force others to make you something else.

If someone is demanding a response from you, remember: you do not owe them anything.

[artisticdysfunction]

syscourse reminder!

just because you don't like a certain side, doesn't mean that it's a cult.

please be respectful to the cult survivors in our communities. please.
