Let's see

Dissociative Identity Disorder (2018)

Dissociative identity disorder is increasingly understood as a complex and chronic posttraumatic psychopathology closely related to severe, particularly early, child abuse.

Speaking of Psychology: What is dissociative identity disorder? With Bethany Brand, PhD (2022)

It doesn't mean that then trauma is not traumatic, because of course it still is, but over time, if that happens again and again and again, the child—because DID is a developmentally based trauma disorder, it starts in very early childhood.

Dissociative Identity Disorder: Etiology, Media, and Stigma (2020) PDF

With all the evidence, one can conclude that the posttraumatic model of Dissociative Identity Disorder is the one that accurately describes the etiology of this complex disorder.

Disorganized Attachment and the Orbitofrontal Cortex as the Basis for the Development of Dissociative Identity Disorder

One particularly promising theory posits that, in addition to traumagenic origins, infant disorganized attachment may be a significant contributor to the development of DID. Neuroimaging studies have identified areas of the brain, the orbitofrontal cortex in particular, that function differently in DID patients, thus providing a neurobiological basis for the disorder. By examining the effects of trauma on neurodevelopment, some of the differences between the normal and the DID brain can be accounted for. Attachment theory allows the cause of DID to be traced even further back to neurodevelopment that occurs during infancy. The combination of disorganized attachment with later childhood trauma provides a strong basis for the development of DID.

The entire goddamn paper--- just read it

Revisiting the etiological aspects of dissociative identity disorder: a biopsychosocial perspective (2014) PDF

Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is a chronic post-traumatic disorder where developmentally stressful events in childhood, including abuse, emotional neglect, disturbed attachment, and boundary violations are central and typical etiological factors.

Trauma-Related Dissociation and the Dissociative Disorders (2022)

Again, just the entire paper

Childhood trauma in patients with Dissociative Identity Disorder: A systematic review of data from 1990 to 2022 (2023)

Overall, those with DID and dissociative disorders reported more emotional and physical neglect, emotional abuse, physical abuse, and sexual abuse than those with PTSD, schizophrenic disorders, panic disorders, and complex partial epilepsy or control. Only two studies stressed early reported age as a factor in trauma exposition among the DID population. Reinders et al. (2018) established reported childhood traumas between 0 and 6 years, whereas Scroppo et al. (1998) estimated averages of 3 years for physical abuse and sexual abuse.

The ISSTD (obviously)

Sleep, trauma, fantasy and cognition in dissociative identity disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder and healthy controls: a replication and extension study (2020)

The current study shows that traumatization is the most important predictor of dissociation in individuals with DID and we assume that sleep disturbances are likely to be related to nightmares due to traumatic childhood experiences.

A Model of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorders and Dissociative Identity Disorder from the perspective of Social Emotions (2022)

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Dissociative Identity Disorder are conditions caused by exposure to one or more stressful events of extraordinary magnitude and/or repeated over many years. The traumatic experience(s) may have different outcomes in different persons: some people fully recover within a short time, while others go on to develop one of these three disorders, whose interdependencies are still poorly understood.

Demonology and the Tri-Phasic Model of Trauma.

The Tri-Phasic model of trauma consists of three healing phases:

1. Safety & Stability

3. Reconnecting & Integration

“She would sit here, with Crowley. She would sit, in compassionate honesty, with him. She would sit with him, for as long as he needed, as long as it took for him to feel safe enough to emerge from his cocoon.”

Inspired by the same name fanfic by Nnm on ao3, you can read it here:

Words cannot describe how much impact this beautiful fan-fiction has on me. It gave me the courage to pick up my own tree, one day it’ll become a forest too, just like Aubrey’s. Thank you.

Demonology and the Tri-Phasic Model of Trauma

As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following: --His clothing was expensive and stylish; --He wore very strange but noticeable cologne; --His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;” --He looked angry; --He was wearing sunglasses. What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

Angel-Centered Therapy Through A Multicultural Lens

“I’d love to meet with you,” Davey said, apologetically, when he had been called up by a fellow looking to initiate therapy, “but I’m all booked up for months.” “Are you sure?” The fellow said, through a poor connection that crackled. Davey had been sure. And yet. Right there in his calendar was a blank spot, just a few days away, which he had somehow completely overlooked before. “How about that…I’ve got Wednesday at eleven, if you can make that work.” “What a miracle,” the fellow said, “that would be just the perfect time.”

Everyone else but Murderbot looks really good, but the voiceover is giving way too much Ryan Gosling.

Murderbot is not funny because it's glib, it's funny because it's dry and deadpan and stressed. It feels to me like it should sound less, "Hey, that's me! >( well, it's true, though, LOL" and more "All SecUnits are pieces of shit". The contrast between Murderbot relentless do-gooding and gentleness and its annoyed, cynical, "fuck all of this, I want to watch TV" internal dialogue is where the fun and the heart is.

I used to have a really hard time bringing up the fact that I graduated from high school a year late without feeling the need to explain why and insisting that it wasn't my fault while simultaneously kicking myself for how much I sounded like I was just making excuses for something I should take responsibility for.

Then I watched Dimension 20's "The Seven" and suddenly I could simply say that I was a super senior.

The first time I heard the phrase "super senior" was in reference to Antiope Jones, a Black girl who had been held back a year after getting kidnapped and imprisoned by members of a fundamentalist cult, and like, girl, same.

So, since then, instead of anxiously spinning out any time I tried to tell a personal high school anecdote, I could just say I was a super senior, and then my brain would auto complete that statement with "like Antiope Jones" and I'd feel good about myself because Antiope Jones Is That Bitch.

That's what the problem had been the whole time. I wasn't worried about how other people would perceive me; I had been struggling with how I perceived myself.

Thanks, Aabria.

I think it says a lot about good omens as a fandom that our most popular fic is 100k words of "Crowley goes to therapy". Like we all took one look at this sadwetpathetic demon and went "he's so mecore fr. Fix him"
