being an alterhuman in adulthood is awesome, actually.

Finding out you're some flavor of nonhuman in your 20s, 30s, 40s, etc is awesome, finding that piece of yourself is awesome and is worthy of celebration, not shame.

Having feelings of nonhumanity persist from childhood to adulthood isn't something to be ashamed of, it's merely a part of you and your identity and deserves respect and acceptance.

Being otherkin isn't something that should be frowned upon, not at any age. Even as it's branded as some teenage fad, adult otherkin, therians, etc exist and have always existed.

Having your syscovery in adulthood is rad. Same with creating one.

#we started to discover systemhood around our tween years but didn’t accept our own until #a friend of ours (also a sys) kind of made us confront it #we had tried to bury that part of us for childish reasons so it was. fascinating to us to see young adult/adult systems in real life #cant completely empathize since we did find out in our mid-teen years but yk #<- the yapperrrrr #plurality #system #alterhuman

Reminder

DID isn't just having fun people in your head

Along with shifts in personality, it's often times:

amnesia: 'waking up' with no memory of what's going on

travelling and having no idea where you are or how you got there

dizziness

confusion

spacing out

headaches

feeling broken & worthless

fear

not knowing why or how you're wearing what you're wearing

nausea

pain

anxiety

finding things amongst your belongings you don't remember acquiring

time loss

depression

suicidal ideation & action

spikes in inexplicable emotion, especially anger, fear, and shame

body and voice dysphoria

depersonalization & derealisation

loss of control

hearing voices

finding injuries you don't remember getting

self harm

not recognising friends/family/colleagues

forgetting important events (birthdays, parties, graduations etc)

mood shifts with seemingly no trigger

finding notes in similar handwriting but something about it is slightly off

flashbacks: somatic flashbacks, nightmares, split second flashbacks to 'little things' but not getting more detail

bed wetting

age regression

inadvertently lying, or being questioned if you have

feeling like your body isn't yours

knowing something is wrong, but not what

wondering why your body doesn't align with your perceived sex (for alters whose gender/sex don't align with the body)

watching your body do things and having no control over it (feeling like a puppet or like playing a video-game in 3rd person)

mass fluctuations in libido: fluctuations from hypersexual to zero sexual desire

not being sure if things really happened, or whether you imagined/thought about them

identity confusion

+ many more

I have two book recommendations DID experiences: "All Of Me" by Kim Noble, and "The Girl in The Green Dress" by Jeni Haynes. Please check trigger warnings.

"I would notice if you switched!"

No. You wouldn't notice a person with DID switch unless you payed very close attention. DID is made to be covert, showing obvious and visible signs of switching can be dangerous for the system. Most alters/parts learn to mask and blend in to make it less obvious. Parts with very different personalities and mannerisms try their best to learn how act as the host for the systems safety.

being in love (not just romantically) with a headmate is like your brain tricking you into loving yourself by giving you someone else who is not yourself to love. "oh you wont shower and take your meds for you? well what if you were doing it for someone else?" and it works. its genius actually

#system #plurality

singlets are simultaneously so much more oblivious than i thought and so much more informed than i thought. cause we recently impulsively told a singlet friend we have DID and he knew what DID was and understood immediately what we were talking about. but we’ve also been system bold-posting (opposite of vague-posting) for several months and he didn’t realize until we told him.

anyway now we have to figure out how to have a conversation about this. and who to introduce to him first……….

Introject who is close to source? Great, good for you!

Introject who is working on distancing themself from source? Great, good for you!

Introject who is super source separated? Great, good for you!

I’m proud of you all regardless of whether you’re attached to source or not- whether you want to be attached or not. Whatever level of separation is best for you is amazing. I’m proud of you all.

"Stop romanticizing DID/OSDD and treating it like it's cool or fun!"

Actually how about no.

So something we've been thinking about lately was our syscovery. We speedran communication and acceptance. The first two headmates we knew about went from "What if we're a system?" to making out on the headspace couch in like, 2 days. Doubt died in like, 2 weeks to a month later. We discovered everyone already in the system after maybe 6 months? Maybe less, maybe more (hehe memory issues). Every therapist we've talked to about our system (okay so 3) has commented positively on our communication and system goals.

This isn't a brag (although we are pretty proud of this). No it's something we've on and off been examining to figure out why. Were we lucky? Are our barriers weaker? Did we make it all up and give ourselves DID?

What we keep coming back to is that opening line. We did romanticize it. We did treat it like it was fun and cool. We came at it with excitement and enthusiasm and curiosity. Faye abandoned all claim that the body and life were hers alone, embracing the weirdness and opportunity of being plural. She welcomed the idea of sharing it and having headmate friends. All of those things that "diminish, belittle, and trivialize" people who "really" have a disorder.

And the funny thing is, we don't deny this disorder at all. It's not all sunshine and rainbows. It never was. There's internal abuse. There's memory issues. There's trauma. There's fucked up shit.

But we think we got a head start on all of this work by thinking it's cool! We eagerly listened for our headmates' voices. We reveled in switching. We built headspace for fun and only found "real" uses for it months or more later.

So idk, maybe no, treating it as cool and fun isn't harmful. Maybe it's something that can help. Maybe some system out there can build some trust and safety internally with this approach.
