you and your system are valid. no matter your situation or trauma you are valid and we're proud of you for making it this far and doing your best each day. we wholeheartedly wish the best for you all

no one person let alone any system is meant to fit in a box, whether you do or not match up to the "standard" system description youre still valid. youre still loved. youre still amazing.

after everything we've all gone through we all deserve some good things so we like making these posts every now and then to put some positivity in the community.

regardless of what your system looks like youre still entirely valid. dont let anyone ever tell you otherwise.

Endos and supporters stay the fuck off this post.

If you ever get told you’re not a system because it’s too rare remember that being plural is more common than having blue eyes or red hair.

Obake: Doctors today and next week a professional who can properly diagnose us with DID/OSDD so people can shut up about us being fake. I'm so damn tired already desperately trying to prove my existence and it's affected how I look at myself in the mirror. Being trapped in this body isn't fun for me and I'm deeply self conscious about it because with memory issues I can't *prove* I'm me.

On top of that I see the fanart and my brain immediately jumps to "I can't be liked until I look like that again." I don't know when or why I became obsessed with this idea, just have. It's doing damage. I still really enjoy the fanart, hell I draw myself after all.

But once a day I get these issues growing obsessed with the idea no one can actually believe that 'yes, I am an Obake' unless they can actually see me.

In my body as I was or if I could still be a genius to prove that I'm here. Sometimes I remember a few science facts and every once in awhile I recall using geometry and measurements when building.

But I don't really know why I'm so afraid that everyone thinks I'm fake or not. Maybe I just don't want to be invisible. But I shouldn't even be alive, I ended up here somehow.

on a larger scale anyone who is kin/system related with TES characters are valid even if its a “toxic” character or multiple toxic characters
