☠️ yep!! I'd say we're generally drawn to the same type of things cause our brain associates those things with comfort and safety, but there are definitely differences. like for example my interests are always related to anime/cartoons/video games/manga, but maple likes Kdramas and romance shows! and she's also interested in cooking I'd say :3 and ry especially has interests that are completely different, he likes nature and photography and animals!! and leil is super interested in music and music making! and sunny is really into mlp since she's a little that holds our positive childhood memories and at the time mlp was our biggest interest that helped us cope the most! and i do like mlp but . more so in a nostalgia way, for sunny it's her whole world!! so I'd say everyone has their own interests but they can overlap or be in a similar territory if that makes sense?
⚰️ our autism for sure!! I'm %100 sure we're fictive heavy and only split fictives all the time because of our autism...it's our autism that makes our brain latch onto fictional characters for comfort to cope and escape from reality through, so it absolutely affects the way our system functions
🪦 yep! so there's the fronting room that's pretty much just a blank white space with couches in it, and whoever is fronting or near the front just sits on those couches. it makes it easier to interact with alters that are close to the front too! funnily enough my friend who's also a system told me their headspace is a blank black space so we're matching....and our brains work in a scarily similar way so ikcghg
but anyways we do have a proper headspace that u can get to from the door to the fronting room but i haven't been there in forever... it's like a big house and everyone has their own personalized room! i think some of my headmates also share a room, like those who don't like sleeping alone for example
🕸 we have way too many alters that form and then go dormant and we never hear from them again, so it's hard to count and we gave up on keeping track of it pretty quickly into discovering we're a system cause new alters just kept coming...so I'd say there's a lot of people that show up then just never appear again. but there is a good amount of alters that are uhh how do i put it, main alters? that are more developed? so we're definitely not a small system
📕 that u have to go through really severe things to develop DID/OSDD... a lot of people think it's about how bad what u went through is but it doesn't work like that, it's about how ur brain experienced the trauma at the time and how it dealt with it. trauma isn't the event itself, it's how it affected you. like there's people that went through way worse than me and didn't develop a system, yet i did. everyone is different and everyone copes differently and everyone develops differently. so measuring it or comparing it by what you objectively went through just doesn't make sense, trauma is pure raw emotions and survival, it's not rational, it doesn't make sense, it can't fit neatly into boxes. and honestly what you went through doesn't even matter, it's how you're affected by it now that matters
🌑 %100 my head oomfs i love them with all my heart!!! i love talking to them i love how they're like as people i love that they exist i love that they're in my life!! I'm also happy I'm not alone, I'm way too weak to live this life all by myself
📜 I'm pretty open about it online and all my close friends know I'm a system, though i don't really talk about it that much to anyone cause i always feel guilty afterwards...but if i was sure someone is really truly interested in hearing about our system stuffs, and open to getting to know and befriending my headmates aswell and not just me, then i could yap about it a lot. but it's something really really sensitive and private and personal so i don't like talking about it if the other person isn't gonna be %100 accepting about all of it no matter what we tell them and actively interested to hear about it aswell😭
🪨 i dunno if this means only romantic relationships or other types of relationships as well but, i pretty easily form familial bonds with some of my headmates, the ones that take care of me and protect me that are also older than me always end up feeling like older siblings to me... recently we split a keito tachibana introject and he's strict as hell and always scolds me and tells me what to do or what not to do but he also always tries to keep my mental health in check and helps me with thinking rationally and avoiding things that will trigger me, so he started feeling like a dad to me (context i don't have a dad i never had a dad so this is new to me) but he always tells me to not call him my dad and that he's only doing his job and doesn't actually care for me he's soo cold💔 but he loves me just #trust me dude
🌙 some ppl think of DID/OSDD or of their own systems like it's all just different parts of the same person, but for us it's definitely not like that...we all view eachother as fully seperate distinct people from eachother and can't think of eachother as 'another part of me' even if we tried...and if anyone else interacts with a different alter and thinks 'oh it's a different part of pyri' they'll be gravely mistaken (also we'll feel uncomfortable as hell with it.....do not recommend seeing us or treating us like that AT ALL) so yeah we're . very seperate from eachother
