#system problems

[dreamers-collective]

Reminder that you can wholeheartedly love your system and sysmates and still have days where you feel tired of being a system. Sometimes being a system makes hard days easier, but sometimes it makes them harder, and that’s okay too.

syscord did serious damage to my perceival of things, discussions, and people's lives/identities. it forced me into condenscendingly correcting and brutally "educating" people who weren't aware of every little thing. it made me a much more abrasive and cold individual on the basis that i should always be correcting everyone on everything at all times and enforcing the same one-size-fits-all mold of "morality" onto them. it made me angry, aggressive, frustrated, isolated, scared, and it was absolutely not worth it.

with this post, i hope to help other people realize how a lot of syscord spaces manage to radicalize people into being aggressive, extremely demeaning and bitter people, by default. this doesn't apply to every system-based discord server, but the big ones where you get dogpiled and then shittalked for anything wrong you do — instead of, you know, being properly talked to like you're a person

it is a terrible place to be in for anyone, let alone people struggling with their mental health. do not force yourselves to stay in syscords for templates or decor, its genuinely not worth it. extremely harsh environment; namely the syscords where its filled with exclusionist 15 year olds who constantly pick at everything and anything to make you problematic. do not stay in these spaces, its not worth it. i promise you there are many resource servers where you won't feel like you're in a killing game with five hundred people at your neck

My question isn't "how chill are your parents?" It is infact "what kind of chill are your parents?"

Example:

My parents let me get whatever haircut, watch whatever shows, listen to any music, have any hobbies, and discuss any kind of career...

BUT the idea that their perfect, amazing, totally not traumatized (thanks bio father) child could ever be disabled, neurodivergent, mentally ill, etc. NO WAY IN HELL! HOW DARE YOU EVEN THINK THAT! YOU'RE PERFECTLY NORMAL! NEVER TALK TO ME ABOUT THAT AGAIN OR YOU'RE GROUNDED! DO YOU WANT TO GO BACK TO IN PATIENT?!

(Yes, they've actually threatened me with this)

Not to be taking syscourse jokingly, because its real issues within the community and it is causing a lot of harm...

But if endos and other nontraums can "choose to one day be a system"

Does that mean actual systems get to choose to be singlet?

I wonder if systems know that engaging in syscourse or in discourse in general can be a form of self harm

Subjecting yourself to ableists, racists, ect. knowing that you won't change their mind can really fuck you up

Stay safe x

When you switch several times during a conversation and you just have no idea what's going on anymore or what you're even taking about

BABY'S FIRST SYSTEM CRINGE!!! <3

Okay but I'm actually really upset about this. DID has been severely affecting my life for a long, long time and just because I make one joke suddenly I'm fake? I question if I'm real or fake all the time and this doesn't help!!! I just started opening up to letting myself be system positive and I'm scared I'm going to go back to painfully hiding everyone and my symptoms in an unhealthy manner. Why. Why do people do this

I'm about to start dragging people to front by the legs so they can explain to me why they left their SP profiles HALF FINISHED

Chronic illness culture is trying to not overdo it but because of all the mental stress going on, you don't notice any symptoms, so you're wondering when you'll crash; because the flare-up just isn't showing up...

Our hair is a choppy chin length type of cut right now. Half of us want to grow our hair back out to their length. The other half wants to chop it off to match their hair.

Instead, we all suffer

Me: I have no amnesia, I must not be a system

Also me, while watching a video on DID: why are all these comments liked I've never seen this youtube is broken

Being a system with BPD is such a trip cause wdym I have a favorite person? Who is that? Why do I hate everyone else they speak to? Why do the other alters get so obsessed with them? Why am I angry? Am I angry? When did I start liking all the things this other person likes? Who's emotions are these? Do I dislike my body due to the DID or is my BPD acting extra weird today? Wait now I'm crying? When did I go to my room? What day is it? What time is it? Who am I? Why am I dressed like this? Who is screaming? Where did this headache come from?

Made the mistake of trying to drink coffee while a regressor was cofronting.

She's now dramatically pouting in the corner.

I'd say that the people with a DNI have the right idea but I watch them get shit from endos anyways so it seems pointless

if anything it looks like it encourages them, knowing they're not welcome.
