Welcome 🖔

Image: Apollo Justice's face cropped at the eye line, imposed over a dpd flag which has five (5) stripes, starting as a semi-indigo blue and transitioning in color to a golden yellow. End.

There's a distinct lack of DPD-focused blogs, so was the birth of this one. Hoping to encourage at least a small community and some pride, in much the same way many other PDs have gathered their own.

Apollo Justice from Ace Attorney is our blog's mascot! He doesn't fit perfectly, exactly, but he's a character that can be looked up to as loved even though he has dependent traits.

The flag in our avatar and banner was made by @revenant-coining. [ Original Post - PDs Archive - Reblog - Archive.Today ]

For the sake of keeping the blog inclusive to as many people as possible, there is no set DNI or much stated at all about opinions on certain topics. Our belief is that resources should not be gated from people for reasons that are unrelated to the resource itself. Someone with DPD could be absolutely abhorrent, but they sill have DPD.

Self-diagnosed DPD, people with a dependent personality type, and those who don't meet the full criteria for the disorder, are all welcome.

i think rapunzel has dpd

Depends on which Rapunzel honestly. I'm pretty cautious about headcanoning characters as DPD, as it implies a lot about them and the way they interact with others. Many people actively in abusive situations (such as many versions of Rapunzel) don't have DPD, but rather haven't learned how to take care of themselves yet - and are being encouraged not to - and could learn with time.

hi do you have any info on depended persons in dpd??

I think I tried answering this at some point but got distracted. Unfortunately I do not, mostly because there isn't much out there I've found and I don't really experience it myself. Sorry for neglecting this for so long!

MILLON'S SUBTYPES [ DPD EDITION ]

Note: all definitions are taken directly from Millon's writings, which are quite old, with only a few edits and rephrasings to make things more digestible to a modern audience.

📃 The Disquieted Dependent — Restlessly perturbed; disconcerted and fretful; feels dread and foreboding; apprehensively vulnerable to abandonment; lonely unless near supportive figures.

▐ has avoidant traits

📃 The Selfless Dependent — Often merges with and is immersed into another person. They become engulfed, enshrouded, absorbed, and incorporated, into others, willingly giving up their own identity. They will try to become one with or an extension of another person.

▐ has self-defeating traits

📃 The Immature Dependent — characterized by being socially or psychologically stunted, unversed, and childlike. Act undeveloped, inexperienced, and gullible. Often feel or truly are incapable of assuming adult responsibilities.

▐ variant of the "standard" dependent

📃 The Accommodating Dependent — appears gracious, neighborly, eager, benevolent, compliant, obliging, and generally agreeable. Tends to deny any and all disturbing feelings. Readily adopts a submissive and inferior role in most situations.

▐ has histrionic traits

📃 The Ineffectual Dependent — often appear unproductive, gainless, incompetent, and meritless. They typically seek an untroubled life. Often refuses to deal with difficulties. Generally untroubled by shortcomings.

▐ has schizoid traits

Woosh , , and new flags [ three !? ] arrive

Cluster A, B, and C flags !!

[ no ID, help appreciated !! - A, B, and C in order ]

I tried thinking of colours that were considered odd, paranoia-related, or eccentric, and that's how we came up with the first flag !! We wanted one slightly bright colour to really represent the word "eccentric" in the definition, and thought that fit best.

For the second flag, we tried thinking of colours more associated with love, hate, egocentrism, nervousness, and sadness !! The burgundy, we mostly thought of NPD, ASPD, and BPD for. The yellow, Histrionic. I feel like the blue comes from all of the PDs in this category , , considering lack of attention, insults, or slight things we deem wrong tends to make us sad or angry , , or things similar.

For the third flag, we thought of anxiety, obsession, anger, loneliness, and irrationality. I came up with yellow, green, and blue. The colours aren't for particular disorders in the group, but if I had to describe it, I'd say the blue fits AVPD, the yellow fits DPD, and the green fits OCD.

The white for all of them represents the ability to grow, the hope we could have, the love that is very possible no matter the PD.

I hope the flags aren't too complex '^^ , ,

To simplify them, the very bottom and top band could be removed, along with the white if wanted.

tagging for , , yeah @mogai-sunflowers - @kirby-in-wonderland - @hypnosiacon - @cupidcoining (it won't let me tag for some reason 😭😭.) I tried tagging those who might be interested or I know have PDs , , reblogging to tag others who you'd think would like it is appreciated !!

Prophedepense - Prophet DPD Archetype

no id provided for spoons' sake, if someone else has time I will add any that are made

Depense are labels that describe one's relation to DPD and their dependent identity. It may be a gender experience, orientation experience, or any other identification: even its own category altogether.

Prophedepense, or the prophet dependent archetype, is a dependent identity related to prophets, considering oneself prophetlike, and/or being seen as a prophet.

The modifier symbols are: 🌟🌷

The tulip as a symbol for DPD is representative of how gardens are dependent on their gardeners and often lovingly tended to in turn.

Depense coined by @epikulupu. Also tagging @cupidcoining and @revenant-coining.

there is a dpd type of attraction ! i can't find the coining of it but this is the definition:

Deattraction / Dependattraction: a form of attraction for those with DPD. This can be used to describe any kind of attraction felt solely within the context of dependent personality disorder experiences.

@revenant-coining

This looks like an attraction modifier (think aplatonic, homosexual, abroromantic), based on Google Cache for its definition listing dependplatonic as a term under it.

[dependencypersonality]

cedural attraction was once labeled as dependent attraction, it was renamed because it was originally translated into English as submissive attraction (remembering sub from D/S) and I believe queerflagswithbenton recoined as dependent. there could be a DPD-specific form of attraction. what do you think? does the definition fit?

For Cedural attraction being it? Not really.

Cedural attraction is about feeling vulnerable, protected, and taught. While this can be relatable to those with DPD, I don't feel as though they capture DPD-exclusive feelings very well. Cedural is like a student in a mentor/student dynamic, the charge in a guardian/charge dynamic, the patient in a doctor/patient dynamic, etc. It's an attraction to someone where you want them to take care of and bolster you. Which can be relevant to DPD, but certainly not exclusive.

I don't think there is currently a DPD attraction type (I may be forgetting, though), but check out our attraction tag if you want to see terms related to DPD and a specific attraction type.
