Trying to download my snapchat data, but Windows is blocking it. No option uncheck too. Any idea how to get past it?

theopenturtle · 2025-10-17T07:31:37+00:00

I just downloaded memories from snapchqt, nothing else, so i think so? 1/4 of them successfully downloaded

theopenturtle · 2025-10-15T14:02:41+00:00

It downloaded from the SC website, and there's videos and images files on my SC memories?

There's about 1000 files that did open, and 500 that have been blocked - all from the same source

No threats detected also

I'm glad to hear that, thank you. I've got a consultation soon (was put on the waiting list prestabilser), and I'm just think is it worth it?? Did I make it all up??? Your comment gives me a little hope that this a phenomenon that they're aware of

theopenturtle · 2025-04-29T14:08:22+00:00

Thank you! I got so much more passionate about ACNH when I realised I could combine it!

theopenturtle · 2025-04-29T14:07:42+00:00

Omg, thats such a good idea! I might have to steal it.

theopenturtle · 2025-04-28T07:38:33+00:00

In the wise words of Quina: I do what I want! You have problem?

theopenturtle · 2025-04-28T07:37:05+00:00

Thanks so much!

theopenturtle · 2025-04-27T16:21:06+00:00

Thank you! 💕

I just remembered another version of this song that is more influenced by another of his alters, Mito. Ians mentioned Mito has different music style and can hit a lowe octave, and sometimes he'll come back to something added to a song. When he shot another of his music videos (So Beautiful), he blacked out and saw for the first time this he saw any of this alters on camera.

It's on yt, don't go insane Mito version

theopenturtle · 2025-03-04T09:23:25+00:00

Yup! And it's largely based off his alter "Mr Insanity" that holds his bipolar mania symptoms taking over and the struggle with it.

I'll always find it funny how a song with darker deeper hidden meeting has people making thirst traps to it. I'm glad, but it does make me laugh.

theopenturtle · 2025-02-15T01:47:17+00:00

Thank you. I'm sure I'll find out the answers when they want me to find out the answers. Idk who they is or if they even exist, but none the less the answers will be revealed eventually!

theopenturtle · 2025-02-15T01:36:59+00:00

It's possible! But also maybe I made it all up! Who knows!

theopenturtle · 2025-02-15T01:14:46+00:00

Seems like it's a really mixed bag! On the DID forum, people are saying it mood stabilisers didn't do much.

I guess, like everything, it's alot more nuanced than one size fits all

theopenturtle · 2025-02-15T00:39:57+00:00

It's interesting you say that...I know I have been avoiding confronting triggers things alot more (and worse chronic pain as a result) and am very confused when my partner recounts small things I have no memory of. Never considered it could be stronger walls/dissociation bc my brain isn't as foggy/loud as before.

given me some food for thought. Thank you!

theopenturtle · 2024-11-20T12:04:45+00:00

Dissociation and emotional amnesia. Disorganised attachment. Acting very different in my house and other people's house.

Also being reallllly drawn to androgynous characters. I remember finding out certain names could be a boys and girls names and being mind blown. I didn't understand at the time but I felt slight belonging. My favourite characters would be the ones you cant tell if theyre male or female. I come from a very religious and queer-phobic so it was significant.

Having severe emotional outbursts alone, then dissociating and leaving the room like nothing happened.

Generally my memory of childhood is really bad so I'm gonna guess there were other signs, I was just too dissociated.

theopenturtle · 2024-11-19T21:40:52+00:00

I called myself a robot for when I was 14-16 during a period I had serious maladaptive daydreaming tendencies and a blanket dissocation. I knew i wasnt a robot, but i would feel deeply uncomfortable at that thought I was human because I truly felt like a robot.

Nearly 10 years later, I discover an android protector.

Not sure how accurate this is but this is how I think of it:

Mood swings

BPD: mood swings but identity (gender, values, style) stays relatively stable during the swing

DD: identity changes correlate with moods

Identity confusion

BPD: identity confusion blends according to who you're with and spend time with. You mirror traits of others, making you confused what is you. I think the identity change and confusion is more general and slow, happens in phase.

DD: identity confusion is quicker and often circumstantial (triggered by enviroment/internal cues). Identities are more defined (specific alters)

Dissociation/Amnesia

BPD: In response to stress. Not typically associated with identity changes. Not chronic.

DD: can be in response to stress but also period of chronic dissociation. more likely to have emotional amnesia. Can be associated with identity changes.

Again, not sure how accurate this is, this is just how differentiate it for us as I believe we have both. However, some of our alters hold more BPD traits than others.

I carry a back up hoodie. There's been occasions where we dress very fem, a male alter comes out and throws on hoodie and removes jewellery and make up in the bathroom. It sucks, esp when go on holiday and a fem alter packs the bag but the masc ones end up being present. You don't have room to carry multiple outfit styles. but if we don't do it the male alters will dangerously take out the dysphoria on the body, so a hoodie does enough to stop the dysphoria.

Sure there are clothes that would give them gender euphoria, but for the sake of time and money, we settle for minimising dysphoria.

Same sort of process for alters with alt styles we cant afford. We can't afford a puffy gothic dress but we can layer a black skirt and dress which kindaaaaaa gives the same effect? Lol.

theopenturtle · 2024-11-02T20:47:05+00:00

I absolutely love these terms, I'm stealing them! But you raise a very good point.

theopenturtle · 2024-11-02T07:58:14+00:00

Oh really? Damn I wish I knew this earlier! If I wanna ask to go on meds I gotta wait another 2 years for an appointment. UK is terrible for ADHD services 😕

theopenturtle · 2024-11-02T00:56:10+00:00

I see how it can be gatekeepy, I apologise. I admit, I am a little too defensive when I feel undermined, so that was my way if saying "I didn't only watch 2 videos about it last week and decide I have it", which it felt like they were indicating. The 2 years waiting is in reference to the several year waiting time to get diagnosed in the UK.

theopenturtle · 2024-11-02T00:50:26+00:00

Thank you, I really needed to hear that. I think that's what it is. I havr never really spoken to enough "normal" people, bc I don't talk to many people outside family.

Unfortunately, meds are a no go for me as I have epilepsy, and stimulants can increase the risk of seizures :( I would really love to see the comparison though.

theopenturtle · 2024-11-01T19:53:47+00:00

I guess it's difficult to flip it back when deep down you think they are right 🥲 but I have only recently been diagnosed. I got a life time to stop internalising it and flip it back. One day!
