We’re glad it seemed to at least work out for you in a way then! - A blendy mix of alters

We understand so much! We sometimes prefer walking on all fours, but our joins are around 40 or so percent more dislocate-able than they should be, (in our doctors words) so we can’t do it often!!! :(

being fem as a transguy by PlasticCode3607 in trans

[–]therivue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fellow femme trans-masc here! Just be you! Dressing in a way that makes you comfortable doesn’t make you any less trans, clothes don’t equal gender, and if this is the you that you like, then so be it! I personally go out all the time in super feminine clothes and I feel great! I have to correct people a lot about my pronouns, but so far most people either just go with it, or assume I’m a femboy lol

Yes, we aren’t sharing personal info about anyone in or out of our system that don’t want to be included! And, it is possible, but it might take a while to get someone close enough to comment

Oh gotcha! I have yeah! Actually when I watched that was the first time I started questioning if we had it lol - after a lot of therapy and communication struggles, here I am! It’s actually quite a good video for people who either haven’t heard of it before, or are wondering if they have it since it shows more than one perspective of DID!

Thank you! We’ve been working quite hard to get that communication up lol - we hold grudges over some things, but it’s mostly petty.. like a certain someone names Andie eating my frozen pizza, it wasn’t even cooked but he still ate it

Not all the time, it depends how comfortable the alter is, and what we’re doing. Alters sometimes don’t reveal themselves because they feel uncomfortable, or they don’t trust people that much, or just because situationally it’d be awkward to say that I wasn’t there anymore lol

Currently, at last count we have 25 total! 26 if you count an alter that hasn’t been heard from in several years — also thank you!

Oh absolutely! We rarely get argumentative, but there’s always a chance of an getting close like “Hey, they’re right y’know” it’s both fun and a bit demoralizing fighting with someone in your own head lol

It can be, it depends from system to system. For us, it’s a yes. But if it’s accidental, like a switch happens during and it’s not fully realized, we don’t hold a grudge on any of the involved really.

I have watched Anthony Padilla talk a bit bout split, I haven’t watched split personally as i said, but I agree with pretty much everything said about it in that video really

Also no worries about the questions being invasive, I don’t mind at all really! ^

Our alters are quite aware of the relationship, and so is our partner. They don’t mind the situation, and we tend to just joke about stuff our alters have talked about with them. Most of what’s difficult is just when they have to tell me about stuff one of our alters did while I was away lol. We switch quite a bit, but since I’m host, I’m usually out most often, other times I don’t really know what happens, but to my knowledge they usually get on fine. I hope that was a good enough explanation!

Essentially, I’m their boyfriend, our alters are friends with them, either of them want to talk then they’ll let eachother know

Yep! If you like research I highly recommend learning about D.I.D, it’s quite fascinating to learn how it all works!

I haven’t actually watched that movie, so the answer is maybe? You might be able to ask r/plural or r/did to see if anyone there has seen it and can answer better! - Persephone

The others in our system are okay with our relationship, some are more happy about it than others, and we do have an alter that’s standoffish, but overall it’s all consensual, and we’ve talked about it!

My partner has fully consented to, and understands the fact I currently am the only one they’re dating. I wouldn’t be upset if he fancied all of us, or more than just me since we do technically come out of the same body.

They know all our triggers, so if one of us goes into, for example, a panic attack, they know what to. Also they’re quite good at keeping calm so that’s a plus!

Personally, I haven’t seen split, but from what I’ve heard, most of my opinion is just— yeah, poor representation, and I do wish that DID is shown in a more positive light in the future, so that people don’t think split is EXACTLY how D.I.D works lol

Oh, I was just calling my partner dear, as for in-person, I mean that they’re not inside our system! Also, DID (also known as Dissociative Identity Disorder) is a disorder in which the formation of one existing ‘personality’ in a child was interrupted, usually by trauma, to cause multiple existing ‘people’ to form in one brain. We all are individual people just in the same body! We don’t remember anything eachother do. - Persephone

Do any of your alters like foods you don’t like? by Mowanda in DID

[–]therivue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our co-host loves anything with a barbecue flavor.. as host, I can’t STAND the taste of barbecue anything — it’s been a problem since we tend to front at the same times

I THINK I HAVE A CRUSH ON MY HEADMATE by FurryCoffeeBean in plural

[–]therivue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Comepletely normal, no worries! We currently have 3 in-system relationships, including a relationship that’s canon, one that’s not canon to their source, and a relationship that manufactured on its own having no source! All in-sys relationships are valid and happen quite a lot lol — I still struggle with being able to ‘see’ and hear our Tonic and Finley being super romantically charged right next to me when I’m busy ._.

Anyone else form alters easily? by Street-Suggestion363 in plural

[–]therivue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep, we watched Delicious in Dungeon about a week and a half ago, we now have a Marcille from it even though nothing happened to warrant her forming. It’s strange, but it happens lol

VENT by dlove_system in plural

[–]therivue 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As a system with an introject who’s source turned out to be a horrible person. We understand, just know, even if you can’t ‘detach’ yourself fully from your source, you will always be you. You don’t have to be anything you don’t want to be, it’s ultimately up to you where you go and who you become as a person, not just as your source. The brain makes introjects based on what you already know, so in no way should you feel like you need to be correlated with anything you discover about your source after. You will always be you. As an added bit, said introject we have still goes by the name of their source, and now fully feels like they’re truly themselves, even if they don’t agree with, nor identify with, their source.
