#osdd question

[weepingdog]

to my DID/OSDD peeps, how can I spot people faking?

Edit: no, im not gonna go around screaming "YOU'RE FAKING IT YOU'RE A MONSTER". I just want to know so I can avoid them and block people who think roleplaying/pretending to have a life ruining disorder is fun.

another serious question for the osddid community

when you make an oc and then get an alter of said oc is that technically an introject? like one of ours just considers herself brainmade since she barely associates with her source anyway (literally an oc we had at like 12) but then another considers themself an introject so it’s??

like are they technically brainmade since yeah it’s an existing character but it’s YOUR OWN existing character or like? 😭

ik labels don’t matter that much but i’ve been curious for a while now

[thefruitbasketsys]

Alrigh is it possible for an alter to mix with another alter? Like- they merge or some shit? I know we can go dormant and whatever but is it possible for mergin with only two alters?

We’re just curious, and we don’t really know we’re to look

I'm so tired

But I'm also thinking of like... im wondering it it's normal or autistic or dissociative to not understand a personality, what makes up someone's personality. I can read it up for a fictional character on a wiki. But if i try to figure out my own personality or someone else's...i don't get it

I don't know how to explain what a personality is. I don't know how to phrase it. But it's why i like personality tests a lot. Both seeing my own results. And seeing another person's results. Because it helps me understand a little bit

But generally i don't...get personalities. I dont know how to describe anything. I have absolutely no clue what personality i have. I describe myself by the things i like. Can't explain what i "like about someone," just that i like them.

Quick questions for other systems

Do y’all like….. assign/guess an alter’s role in your system (if they have one), or do they tell you?

I don’t think any of my headmates have just straight up been like, “yeah I’m your inner-healer”

It’s always more along the lines of: “oh your personality and actions are really maternal and protective so you’re probably a caretaker”

This is a genuine question btw,

Please no non-traumatic systems

[citrus-system]

If you have a CDD and experience alters/parts I have a question for you;

What do you do with your hands when you switch?

[fromthewondersystem]

anyone else almost always have long dissociative switches with headaches and shit and then there’s that one alter who when y’all switch it’s just like, boom they’re fronting?
