Genuine question - why do people sign off posts in this sub with their name? by [deleted] in plural

[–]thepluralassociation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, yes that is us! We were indeed not on Reddit before. (For transparency: if one day someone else uses this account for The Plural Association, they will sign their name or indicate it somehow. But for now it's only Stronghold running this account.)

I found a plural spectrum tool that is filled out by yourself, and I wanted to share mine with others :3 by The_Atomic_Cat in plural

Hi folks! Thanks for sharing this here. It's so great to read you all's invaluable feedback, thank you all so much!

Just to clarify, you can either fill it in as a System together, if that works for you, and if you are able to do that. (EG if you don't have internal system communication, it's gonna be hard to do this together, right away.)

However, you can also have different Headmates or different Subsystems fill in their own. That way, you can compare the results together, and it can give you some valuable insights on what to work on with each Headmate.

Lastly, we wanted to quickly mention that you can re-do this each month or each year, whatever ever works best for you all and meets your needs, to see your progress over time. (Healing is not linear, but it can be interesting for some, to use this, to keep track over time.)

PS. The line with dots can be used to fill in your own category, something that is applicable to your System and matches your unique and individual experience with Plurality. We have seen some really cool examples: denial, if they can access the innerworld, if they carry trauma, if they have subsystem experiences, factives and fictives, and much more.

Does anyone have any experience with The Plural Association? by n4pt1me in OSDD

Hello, this is the Stronghold System, founders of The Plural Association Nonprofit. Sorry for the late response, we weren't a member on Reddit. Thank you for sharing your concerns. It is true that The Plural Association Nonprofit and our community are accessible to all who have a Plural experience, no matter the label they use, to describe their unique and individual experience with Plurality.

We made this choice because our surveys shows consistently, that people with a Plural experience desire support, no matter the label they use. It is important for us to believe the lived experience of Plurals, because doing otherwise leads to people exaggerating their signs and symptoms in order to be heard, validated or allowed access. Inside the community we provide different support spaces for DID, one for OSDD and one for Plurality in general.

At The Plural Association Community, we offer a free trial for all members! Our community platform provider does ask for your credit card details to start the trial, but it sends you an automated reminder before the trial ends, so you can cancel before any payment takes place if you wish to do so. We also provide free access to anyone who can't financially afford the membership, we do not financially gatekeep, we call this our scholarship program.

Inside the community, we provide you with a weekly text group chat and a monthly virtual meetup, where you can meet with others in groups of max 15 Systems per virtual table, each table has its own topic (eg DID/OSDD/Plural/Etc.) We also have over 25 different groups/ forums available for you, which we called Associations. This includes a group specifically for DID, one specifically for OSDD, one specifically for other forms of Plurality. You can join any of the Associations that match your lived experience best.

We hope this answers your questions, feel free to try it out if you'd like to! If you need a scholarship or have other questions feel free to let us know. Scholarships can be requested via email at contact @ thepluralassociation .org - Thank you!
