27 (they/them) Traumagenic System

[the-sage-system]

Hello and welcome to the-sage-system!

We are a traumagenic DID system, and go by they/them pronouns (collectively & individually).

HOST(s):

Sam 27 (left) Ali 29/30 (right)

ALTERS:

Vyx/Vex 19-25 (left) Holden 16-18 (right)

Nyx 9-12 (left) Reem 5/6 (right)

Other unspecified alters which we have yet to identify fully*

*Trauma is complex, as is how our brains react to it and compartmentalize it varies differently from person to person. Some may be able to identify all of their alters, while some may still struggle to do the same. We all need time to process our trauma and heal, only then will those alters feel safe enough to let us get to know them. Patience is key.*

let's hear it for the nonbinary folks who:

don't present androgynously

use "binary" pronouns in any capacity

identify partially with a binary gender

have a "gendered" name

don't experience body dysmorphia

don't experience gender dysphoria

DO experience gender dysphoria/body dysmorphia but aren't sure what gender or body would suit them

just experience body/gender apathy instead

can't be open about their gender identity yet

you're all absolutely valid.

don't ever feel like you're "not nonbinary enough" because you absolutely are! 💖

The struggle to find beauty or meaning in the ordinary aspects of life.

The challenge to appreciate the subtleties and nuances of everyday existence.

The difficulty to find significance amidst the mundane.

What a beautiful early birthday present.

My parents are finally getting divorced and I couldn’t be happier.

I’m proud of you Dad.

As a system myself, I’m not familiar with the traumagenic and endos labels.

Could you elaborate?

Thanks in advance 😊 ❤️

i'm unsure what this totally means so i'll give a tldr:

traumagenic is a label for systems formed by trauma, aka the only way a system can exist. it's sad that we even have to have this a label but endos lack the understanding of actual psychology.

endogenic is a label for systems who claim to be systems without trauma, which again, aint a thing!! they have a whole catalogue of "origins". if you hear a 'genic' that doesn't start with 'trauma', that's endo shit.

Thank you for this, this really helps a lot. I had seen a lot of the discourse but not any solid definitions. Thanks for clarifying for us.

Shout out to alters not ready to reveal themselves. Shout out to alters who are hidden from the rest/to parts of the system. Shout out to alters who don't/can't front. Shout out to alters who are dormant for safety. Shout out to alters the system doesn't know about.

people will hear you talk about struggling with mental illness and say “you can do anything if you just put your mind to it”. brother what part of the body does the mental illness happen in. what do you think is the problem
