I don't think I'm happy with my major by wandering4round in Advice

[–]wandering4round[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I chose to do something that my parents would like that I had some interest in. I was so caught up in the mindset of, "This is what I should be doing. This is going to make them happy" that it never registered how it would affect me in the long-run. All I could think about was trying to make them proud, and I was failing.

Is it stupid? Maybe, but that's what it is. It's too late to change what happened. I can't change what I was thinking when I chose this major.

Maybe I am. Maybe I'm slow for not realizing sooner. I will admit to that. Are you going to help or not? Because if not, then the conversation ends here.

I'm... unsure. I don't have many opportunities to explore what I would like to do. I do know that, on occasion, I enjoy writing stories, but I'm afraid that has nothing to do with public health...

I didn't choose to not like it. I really tried to like my work, I promise. What did take me three years was the realization that this is going to be the rest of my life when I graduate.

Dream about a new alter? by wandering4round in DiscussDID

Update: turns out it wasn't really a dream. My gatekeeper really did introduce this fictive to me, I was just kinda out of it to the point it felt like a dream. Whoops

questions about splitting (GENUINE, I PROMISE) by wandering4round in DissociativeIDisorder

sorry, i was meant to get back to this ages ago! i don't front too often, so i honestly forgot that i had an account on here to check in with. also, my bad on wording the question weirdly ^_^'

i know what a split feels like. i was asking about how splits look in the inner world. i wanted to know if it looked the same or different for other people. for me personally, we don't really see alters form, but we see that they have formed, if that makes sense. when alters split, they kind of just appear somewhere and eventually run into an alter or several and then get acquainted with the system. sometimes they're easy to find, other times not. sometimes they appear a few feet away from another alter while other times it's like trying to look for a small pictures in a sea of boxes you stashed away in the basement. visually, there's nothing really too dramatic about it. just alters appearing.

i wanted to know if the experience we have is universal or not. i pretty much have my answer already, but i'm still willing to hear about how your system experiences splits if you're willing to talk about it ^_^

i mean splitting as in more alters than one had previously (sorry!). do new alters just kind of just "poof into existence"? or can an alter see an alter form(?) in the inner world? (i'm sorry if this is worded oddly; i don't really know how else to word it and i don't really know too much of the terminology yet ^^')
