Simple Summary: How do you tell if a system is faking?
Answer: You don’t!!!
My Response to this video:
I think the real question is not about whether a system is faking, but whether what that system/person is saying is trustworthy or not.
The answer is when in doubt about trusting someone - don’t. Especially online, you don’t know people so don’t trust them until you have experienced them over a number of different situations and they have proved themselves trustworthy.
No one can tell another person what they’re experiencing and whether it is valid or not. To be honest, when people are gatekeeping in the DID community by determining who is valid and not - this sends up a danger signal in me. I’ve been burnt by gatekeepers in other communities before.
One thing I do know is that those with DID systems and those without DID Systems - they all need to be trustworthy before I’ll share any intimate details with them. The other thing that I know is if I see a person in pain, regardless of whether they have a system or not, then I want to have compassion for them, and if can be helpful, then I’ll be helpful.
Do not let gatekeepers hurt you.
