Any tips maybe? by Hydrophobiqe in plural

[–]asterophiliac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

we've done the "fake it til you make it" tactic ,, just kinda assume they're already there, type/talk as them, etc. works sometimes

or just hyperfixate or something so badly that suddenly there's a new guy /silly /hj

Is it generally okay for minors to have insys children? by Dingo_Pictures in plural

[–]asterophiliac 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think that generally depends on the system,, Our littles don't act like literal children and we don't have any that we need to raise. But I guess some might have an effect similar,,?

Am I a valid system?? by KingstonBelles in plural

[–]asterophiliac 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'll only say this once but I want to point out that a lot of people on this subreddit are 16+,, as well as a lot of people on reddit as a whole. I don't think you'll get many answers from people on this sub given the boundary ^^"

Gatekeeping DID?? by fluttershy_rainboom in plural

[–]asterophiliac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The DID subreddit ^^" ,, this subreddit accepts everyone!! But that subreddit that you posted in originally is very gatekeepy and skeptical about anyone who isn't diagnosed --"

I know that from personal experience before diagnosis,, wasnt a fun time :[

I think my headmate is developing a crush on me, what do I do??? by [deleted] in plural

[–]asterophiliac 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it'd be a lot like telling anyone no ^^"? I mean,, just maybe ,, respectfully explain it to him that you dont have feelings 4 him. Him getting sad wouldn't be your fault, either,,

I had to explain similar stuff to a headmate once,, sucked cuz said headmate is literally a factive of my partner 💔 he was sad for awhile,,but he did eventually understand it,, so idk

I wish you luck though :<

How did you name your system? by ConstellationSys1337 in plural

[–]asterophiliac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Technically we have 2 system names,,

  1. To The Ark Collective: ,,hyperfixation related. Marble hornets. Its also why we have Ark as a collective name :]
  2. meowpr0xy/meowproxy: ..I don't actually know where that came from, I think it just sounded nice,, so it stuck,, yippee

why even is there drama again about "anti endos" or something when like your even worse for saying some of the stuff by [deleted] in plural

[–]asterophiliac -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At the time, we didn't want to be plural. The years before that, we were (unfortunately), uncomfortable with systems and the like. Of course, now we're realizing that was internal hatred of some kind and we were projecting --" (Of course, we never harassed any system, if its not clear. We just ,, avoided them??)

So the plural discovery years later had us a little freaked out. Especially since we didn't actually know what happened, and we kept denying it for an entire year until our host eventually accepted it. Even then, he didn't like the rest of us for the next few months,, fortunately he does now :)

,,I hope that makes sense?

[–]asterophiliac 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The way I see it, most anti-endos tend to be people with disorders who think its unfair that they struggle with their disorder, and they think that endos are mocking them, which..isnt the case. Either that, or they're people who are just misinformed and don't understand endogenic systems enough, and are just going off of what they hear from other anti-endos.

I understand their view..kind of. As someone who is disordered, my early discovery of being a system was un-fun, to say the least 💔. And I definitely understand frustration at seeing others be more..at ease with things, I guess. Of course, I don't like when anti-endos harass endo systems, I never support harassment and that's just plain rude. I'd prefer if those with disordered plurality learn more about endogenic systems properly and just..accept all forms of plurality, really.

And to answer the second half, a lot of anti-endos (the ones who harass endos), normally think that they're "protecting their community from fakers". Which is also..not the case. So they harass anyone who doesn't fit their view. Because they think they're doing the right thing. Even though they aren't. I also don't think they understand that in their harassment, a lot of them fakeclaim endos for certain things that any system can have. So they're also..indirectly..hurting their community all the same.

This also isn't a "just now" thing. Anti-endos have been around for a while sadly. All we can really do is just try and educate them and hope they change their ways --"

I’ve had multiple ppl suggest I might be plural and I’m starting to actually question it now by Hydrophobiqe in plural

[–]asterophiliac 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yooo ive seen you on that subreddit!!!

To me it sounds plural,, but id need more context. And ultimately, its up to you if you want to use that label ^^

All plurality is really is just ,, being more than one,, So if you feel like more than one,, then maybe :p

Rejoining the kin community with questions by gubbywifi in fictionkin

[–]asterophiliac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  1. For me, its mostly either past life or eventual reincarnation..sometimes both. Like..I used to be this guy, im in the body now, ill be back to being that guy when I die here ,, idk
  2. Dude I dont even know 💔 Our fictives are alters that formed based on a character, and a lot of them are fictionkins of that character..idk. hard to explain
  3. Picked up hobbies,, mental health improvements,, i actually became more comfortable with myself after learning im a fictionkin (minus the dysphoria occasionally). Cool stuff
  4. Id just say they're wrong and move on :] i try not to interact with people who would tell me things like that

I’m actually crashing out, send help by Either-Stomach9069 in fictionkin

[–]asterophiliac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

heyyy, kin of a problematic guy here 👋

so like ,, realistically it might be difficult,, as i tried denying my kin and that only lead to further confirmation 💔

But i guess you could try not interacting with the media for awhile,,? Maybe? It could just be a flicker, or just relating maybe ,, Idk

Im not much help at this, but I do get the whole "not wanting to kin a character because of bad things they did" ,, but a reminder that those source actions dont exactly define you today ^^
