Having DID is kinda like being in one of those bodyswap episodes in tv shows where you find yourself in someone else's body and you have to live as them without anyone else noticing that something's wrong
Sometimes the system experience is seeing characters who aren’t systems in canon and it would be incredibly offensive if the creator of those characters implied they were a system and headcanoning them as a system because you’re allowed to do it
what it feels like to have DID sometimes
Anyone else sorting their alters into what acute stress response they usually exhibit? Idk we've found it somewhat helpful to understand why each of us react as we do
We also separate us into what emotions we each primarily feel. This simple image is helpful for us to remind ourselves that all emotions (and all alters) serve an important purpose!
Idk if this is helpful to other dissociative people and this might be because we are also probably autistic, but categorising us in this way has been helpful to understand ourselves and to teamwork better
ok, be honest... how many of you CDD systems actually consistently track your switches?
We track every single switch
We track most switches, but we miss sometimes
it's 50/50 if we track or don't
We miss most switches, but we still try to track when we remember
We don't even try to track switches

CDD = Complex Dissociative Disorder. An umbrella term for systems with DID, OSDD-1, P-DID, DDNOS, and UDD
an hour into this, but it's so good! i really related to some of the things brought up in this presentation as a dissociative person (DID). highly recommend giving it a watch if you have the time
it is focused on how to treat dissociative patients, so the target audience is therapists and psychiatrists, but i also got something out of it as a patient
Throwback to when we ran into the word "dissociation" on tumblr as a teen and thought "huh sounds rough, glad i don't deal with that stuff myself"
