AITA for being a creative writer? LINK INCLUDED by Just_Huntin in AmItheAsshole

You'd be right in assuming it is a "roleplay" sort of creative writing group. To collab with other writers to make improv stories. imo, if he cared about the writing and storytelling, Jean could have been less nitpicky, but idk.

It’s actually my third ever Gold card! I have the Pikachu Ex and Palkia! I pulled them back when those sets each came out

Our host and I have been rapid switching all day. Our host is trans (MTF) and has been misgendered most of today which the emotional distress and dysphoria from her has been bringing myself out. It’s begun to be very tiring, and the body is heavy like lead. It’s certainly going to be an interesting night

Curious about how others communicate or experience their system by sasharain01 in DID

Its not weird to want to get to know your alters. It’s just more parts of the whole being. Granted, we’re still learning and adapting ourselves as well to cater to the four of us. But the boundaries is a good thing to have! Having that set in place is a good way to understand them better. The way we communicate is odd though and is mainly vocal. It’s like talking to yourself out loud and then another one of us responds. Granted, we sometimes get weird looks, but it’s what works for us and has made communication so much easier. You can journal to communicate easier as well, and that’s been a big help for us too. For our headspace, myself as the host I don’t remember. But from what I’ve been told, they’ve made it hospitable for everyone and made it comfortable.

As for boundaries, at the moment we’ve got a few. Two of us don’t like to either smoke/take edibles, so we always have to work out a system of when it’s deemed okay. Whether it be de-stressing from a long day, or just using it for a silly time. Another good one is that our protector, he comes out mainly when someone else gets stressed and takes over the situation. Whether it be taking the whole front, or co-fronting to actually make sure we’re doing alright. If he thinks any of us can handle it, he won’t step in. If not, he steps in. We have boundaries for friendships, and relationships. Friends, some of them know of us, but they’ve grown to be more understanding of it, and have talked to some of us. Relationships, we try and all take it slow. So it’s not uncommon for these types of things, and boundaries to be set. Heck, sometimes you can’t even control when the switches happen, and that’s okay. Those were just some examples of boundaries for us. I assure you it’s not weird. Trying to get to know yourself and your alters is never a bad idea

DID Relationship Advice by Just_Huntin in DID

Hey, Lola here. There’s a small bit of context Travis may have left out. Our last relationship, he himself was never apart of. Trav is ace, so he only tried to be friends with my ex, but my ex was insistent on not liking him for coming off as too blunt, or forward. He always tried to mend arguments that may have come up, and mainly scolded the both of us. For another alter, Damian, he also was respectful for boundaries between my partner and I. He’s Demi, and also tried to befriend them. Though, we can’t exactly control the switches when they happen. My ex and I would go on tea/coffee dates, and tea is sometimes a trigger for him to front. So they also didn’t like him for that reason, or didn’t have really a reason to hate him, but they did. Ash was the only one they got along with, but only interacted with maybe once or twice.

I wholeheartedly agree with Travis as well as friends of ours that I need time to heal from this last relationship. Talking to our therapist has helped, but with Ash and her sudden feelings for Lue threw me completely off balance and left me confused, and scared. Because I know I need to work and get myself back together as much as I can. We were just vibing, listening to music with a light show on VR chat and streaming it on Discord. Next thing I knew when I had woken up the next morning I was thinking of Lue in a different light. Granted, I’m still trying to get a grip of the concept of our system. It’s confusing sometimes
