There's always a role and an origin, a label, a "purpose" everyone seems to have.
Everytime I look back, there's always another thing to add. Oh a new genic that helped with their forming- oh a new label that helps describe our experiences- OH MAYBE ITS--
Can we PLEASE just exist? Can we please just sit down, really sit down and accept that "I am multiple"?
I've been having people's opinions affect how I view my/our system and I can't stand it, I'm so indecisive that I cannot LABEL my experiences anymore, too many views, too many possibilities
Tommy this, Tommy's that, Tommy might be this.
Mystic did this during this time, Megs did that during here, Turbo only did this, yada yada yada
HOLY FUCK
They were formed through stress!! They were formed through something my brain deemed traumatic!! Idk anything else! Role? Their purpose?? Idk dude!! I just started BECOMING all these people and suddenly I'm Megs who has memories from a time that NEVER existed. Or suddenly I'm Tom who's quiet and chill and laid back, someone who prefers to just sit in silence with you, I'm someone who'll fawn, I'm someone who'll fight, I'm someone who'll change depending on environment and stress levels. I have NO idea WHY they only come out during these times, or what their "purpose" is. They were formed through RP, they were formed from moving, they were formed from neurodivergence- ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, and it doesn't explain "purpose". I have only so many memories, selective and triggered memory, I can only remember so much, DO so much. And I just wanna feel comfortable in the system that grew from my unsafe environments growing up and healing it :((
Hello! Would you happen to know of any terms for midcontinuum/median systems who are closer to the singlet side of the spectrum? we have BPD that has impacted us as well, if that can help specify a bit more. TYSM!
hey, as we understand, median is a sort of umbrella term that refers to any system who is in between plural and singlet. so those who are closer to singlets could still call themselves median or midcontinuum if those terms work for them.
we’ve also heard of plural singlet or plurallet, which as far as we know are terms for someone who is much closer to the singlet side of the plurality spectrum. as far as y’all’s bpd goes, bordergenic is a term for systems whose origins have to do with their bpd.
all links to pluralpedia. if anyone reads this and knows of a better term that might help anon, please share it by all means :)
I don't entirely know who to talk to about this, but I trust your blog and it's on my mind.
I realized I'm a bordergenic system, and I can't.... Handle this discovery. It feels like my system is less valid than others, and if I'm open about this nobody will understand. My family already thinks I'm a psycho for coming out as a system, and I don't really know what to do. I'm kinda spiralling into really unhealthy thought patterns.
Idk what I'm asking
Maybe just some positivity for bordergenic systems, I guess.... I'm sorry for venting in your ask box, but it's already hard enough out there for those of us with borderline personality disorder, this discovery just makes me feel worse about myself and I just wanna go to bed and never leave my room again.
I'm sorry about your family. It sucks having people who are supposed to be supportive of you turn their back on you for what you are. You deserve so much better. 💖🫂
But don't you dare let their voices get in your head. Your experiences are real and valid, regardless of what anyone else thinks.
If people refuse to accept you, it's their loss!
For whatever it’s worth, you should know that BPD is considered to fall under secondary dissociation with OSDD. Many common symptoms are dissociative. And it has a high comorbidity with dissociative disorders.
Not only are BPD systems valid... they're probably far more common than we know.
I don't know if this will help, but I just want you to know that you're not alone.
Best wishes in the times! Sending you all my love! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
bordergenic culture is having a breakdown and then forgetting right after and realizing you split a headmate who is holding those memories of the breakdown
