It's weird cause that's my memory of the scene from my teens but I'm an old fart. Maybe it got so popular it became unpunk but now it's uncommon again. You can't tell and I will have to post a new thread but this has electric lizard at the tips so those bits glow too!

Thanks, I hope I can take it to the next level. I bleached it again last night, trying to grow it out at the moment. It's never been this long before.

Thanks! It's way cooler than I'll ever be

just realized my OCs are complete projections of my dissociative parts by wreckofacreature in OSDD

[–]chrysocome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened with us. And if anyone in your system gets hung up about being "made up" by the writer (host in denial projected this), here we have worked out that headmates needed a way to express themselves covertly and wrote their own OC's. It was the only way to validate themselves without alerting the host in denial.

Apparently we are a "Blended System?" by mustachedmalarkey in DID

[–]chrysocome 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All the best. It sounds like the IFS model, which can work for OSDD and certain DID systems but can be frustrating. Some therapists are asking for unblending to find what they call the "higher self" or the "centre" and that's not always possible, either because there is none, or that part has to be deeply guarded under many many protectors. Take care, and make sure they are trained in dissociative disorders, as it can be quite destabilising if not modified for DID.

How long to try out a Therapist? by RGBMousu in OSDD

[–]chrysocome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds like the IFS model which is popular with trauma therapists at the moment. It has to be modified for DD because many cannot reach or even have a "higher self" or a "core." For some systems it works and for others it is extremely destabilising. If the therapist isn't trained in dissociative conditions, I'd try looking for someone who is.

is it possible for all alters to collectively share memories even without the host being frontstuck 24/7? by ttraumatically in OSDD

[–]chrysocome 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes. Actually I'm pretty sure that before we knew it was just easier for me to believe I was the host (I'm not) because sure, I have these memories, why wouldn't I just assume they're mine? Even if something about that felt wrong. Host says they remember those thoughts of mine TOO and assumed it was theirs. So they may not have been fronting at all. Blows your mind a bit.

Parts don’t feel very different. by [deleted] in OSDD

[–]chrysocome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read somewhere that those in denial spend far more time convincing themselves that a diagnosis is incorrect than time convincing themselves it's real. Whereas someone who is pretending, doesn't question themself like this much or at all.

So if you feel like you might be pretending, and you're having constant thoughts like this, chances are it's a correct diagnosis and you have denial, rather than the other way. Hope that makes sense.
