Forest of the Felled

A collective blog for The Forest of the Felled Collective. Features OG posts and comics

[forestofthefelled]

Hello! Welcome to the start of our comic series.

We don't have any sort of " reference " for how each alter appears in our comics, as our system is large and constantly growing.

This comic will stay mostly lighthearted, sharing experiences of our every day life and how we interact with one another, and the outside world.

This blog is a safe space for any and all system origins, as long as you are not harming yourself or others, we could not care less what you do. Do not bring discourse or negativity to this blog.

We dont have a DNI, but block freely.

We do not disclose full member counts, ages, or otherwise. We are bodily an adult.

Vents or more serious posts will be tagged accordingly with triggers and anything deemed necessary!

~ Tags ~

On this account, we will have a tagging system. (hah)

#(Name)(Emoji) : The alter that is fronting when the post is made, or what alters a comic contains. (First tag in the list is the one fronting/making the post.)

#creatures rambles : Text posts

#creature comics : Comics and art

#the evergreens : Alter intros

Differences.

[journal-factory-exploded]

My/Our unreadable comics against the world. Not really sure how to explain it other than it's close to how I think in general. But hey this is our blog so I post how I want.

Anyways.. shout out to any duos that are always together.. yeah.

[plurapony]

can we shed some light on the amnesia in DID that literally doesn't matter? the amnesia that isn't about anything important or anything it's just really fucking annoying to forget! examples:

"oh that reminds me of my favorite movie! ...which now, i conveniently cannot remember the name to"

[introducing yourself to someone] "oh shit what are my hobbies? what do i like to do?? fuck i can't remember!!"

"oh my god im literally obsessed with this thing!! its always on my mind... AND I HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA WHAT IT'S CALLED RN!!!!"

like it's the type of amnesia that doesn't necessarily negatively impact every daily life but you know it's really fucking bothersome to not be able to remember! i literally forgot that i liked movies, or the fact that i liked movies so much i went to film school I FORGOT I WENT TO FILM SCHOOL???

What Jermey taketh away he also giveth in having access to all the memories and weird and random facts

[lifeafterpsychiatry]

Stop just asking "is it normal?" and start asking "is it harming anyone?" Lots of harmful things are normalized in this society and lots of things considered weird or rare are completely harmless. Whether something is considered normal or common shouldn't be the deciding factor in whether it's okay

[alteredpanel]

[semiplural]

Outside of situations where masking plurality is necessary (e.g. where someone may use known memory problems as an abuse tool), you probably need to mask yourselves less than you think.

Very, very few people will notice overt plurality without being directly told about it. The few that might notice tend to be plural themselves or have plural friends, and they tend to be safe to be spotted by anyway because they're familiar with plurality and how to handle it respectfully.

The average person doesn't have plurality on their radar in the first place. Heck, they barely know what DID is, assuming that they live somewhere it's a diagnosis option, and they've never heard of anything beyond that. Most people will see overt plurality and think "oh, they're moody, or genderfluid, or just use a lot of names, or do a lot of things, or..." if they notice anything different at all.

Seriously, people are oblivious. You can introduce yourself by three different names, have wildly different preferences and modes of expression, and even toss in an accent. The most you might get in response is "are you okay?" (to which the non-disclosure answer is something like "yeah, just feeling different today" or "yeah, I'm just like this sometimes, it's normal". They'll usually let it go if you don't make a fuss about it).

In any case, people are probably not looking for signs of plurality when talking to you- they're more focused on the conversation. The odds of them noticing something different in the first place and bringing it up are low. They have other things to talk about.

Syscourse is really funny if you try to imagine people saying the same things about any other mental phenomenon.

"DNI if you claim to be 'sad' without an MDD diagnosis"

"You're 'proud' of being 'self-confident'? Stop romanticizing NPD, it's a debilitating disorder for people who really have it, faker."

"Trauma is the only valid origin for psychosis, people who claim to have 'hallucinated' because of drugs or sleep deprivation are either lying or they just don't know how traumatized they are"

"Well, I developed my agoraphobia from being kidnapped and tortured THREE TIMES at the age of six, so anyone who claims they developed it later in life or from less severe trauma is faking."

[multiple-octopods]

internal communication is easier when you don't make everyone talk in words

[multiple-octopods]

we have to remind ourselves of this periodically

[pluralsoupcomics]

If you were a soup what would you be?

[forestofthefelled]

unironically chicken noodle

not just bc its our favorite soup but also bc it relates alot to our system functioning. avery, our core, is the noodles his influence spreads throughout all of us, touching us in intrinsic ways. the soup wouldnt be the same without him. then the chicken chunks and vegetables, the fully formed alters. they have unique flavor and add alot to the soup, all with their own texture and consistency. then the gatekeepers and fragments are the broth, still an important backbone to the soup but maintaining a more " background " flavor.

this is a neat metaphor actually this is fun lawl :>

BEFORE INTERACTING:

this blog is 18+!! i check every blog and block freely. ageless blogs will be blocked.

this blog may mention topics of self harm, bdsm, and glorification of those topics. be warned. if you want to avoid these topics, you can block the tag #knifes edge

onto other little things about me:

- im an alter in a system! my name is Vixen. she/it. our system blog is @forestofthefelled. this blog is just for me though.

- im a proud persecutor. alot of those discussions will be brought up on this blog. im a big advocate for persecutor autonomy. if that makes you uncomfortable you can fuck off. please don't try to 'fix me'.

stances and other important info below

when it comes to like. the majority of stupid online discourse(syscourse, proship/antiship, etc) we are anti harassment anti censorship. who gaf what people do in their free time aslong as theyre not hurting other people. let people live their lives without other freaks policing it.

but if its a deal breaker/you cant be respectful then we'd prefer if anti endos didnt interact. thanks<3

wild card (n.)

a headmate who acts out of line and/or erratically compared to the rest of the system.

term coined by us (The Rainforest Collective). feel free to create flags for it, just credit us for the original definition.

if this term has already been coined, consider this an alt!

hot take but emotional holder roles are kinda restricting asf. obvi if you like it i can't stop you but for us we find that if we identify as holding an emotion/state we'll find ourselves not allowing us to feel anything else. so shit like " mania holder " or " instability holder " (both terms i used to identify with) have just made me feel like those parts of me Defined me. yk????
