CHRONIC PHANTOM WINGS

A term for those who have phantom wings more often than can be labeled as phantom shifts. This can range from feeling their wings for a short moment many times a day, to feeling their wings almost constantly. Feeling nonhuman body parts is a varied and personal experience, and whether the user would describe their phantom wings as 'chronic' is up to them. This term was intended for alterhumans and nonhuman alters, but anyone whose experiences match can use it.

Feel free to archive or post on other platforms! Credit is not required but appreciated.

[cischaracter]

A couple of my older self indulgent terms.

Normomania: The extreme obsession with being and being perceived as normal. Name is based on normophilia (the attraction to normal acts).

TransCompEvilLaugh/TransCompEvilaugh: a transid term for identifying as having, having, desiring to have, and/or feeling as though one should be a compulsion for evil laughter. A specific subset of transCompulsion (archive link).

TrisVillainComplex: a trisid term for identifying as/having a villain complex in both a cisid & a transid way. Some examples of what this could involve include:

already having a villain complex but desiring to, identifying as having, etc. have one that's more or less severe

wanting to have, identifying as having, etc. a different kind of villain complex (whatever that means to the user). This could be a different subset of it or one that has different symptoms, for example.

having something similar to a villain complex already, but wanting to have, identifying as having, etc. a villain complex instead

etc. Falls under trisComplex (archive link).

Archived link to villain complex (link).

These were all coined on July 22, 2025.

Tagging: @bridgesreroll8, @maki--archival, @colablob, @flaglessarchival, @themudhub (since Normomania is a medically unrecognised mania & I believe Villain Complex is MUD-like)

Obsessive Attatchment Disorder

[Pt: Obsessive Attatchment Disorder :End Pt]

(With and without the hearts.)

Obsessive Attatchment disorder is a MUD (Medically Unrecognized Disorder) coined by myself (the-harbingers-of-pure-chaos). This disorder causes beings to become obsessive and extremely attached to beings they are close with.

Symptoms include:

• Becoming distressed when certain people are not around

• Being extremely protective of people you are close with

• Extreme happiness and/or excitement when close people are around

• Becoming sick to the stomach when they are not paying attention to you

• Being extremely jealous when they don't do something with you and choosing to do it with someone else

• Extreme anxiety when said person(s) are upset or angry

• Desire to do anything and everything to make them happy

• Begging for comfort and affection

I apologize if this seems like just regular experiences, I don't find these things regular experiences for myself, which is why I am making a MUD for it.

Hiya friends! We’re back with a MUD coining today :3 we have a slightly similar one after this coming in a bit.

Overly Empathetic Personality Disorder(OEPD)

Overly Empathetic Personality Disorder (OEPD) is a medically unrecognized personality disorder characterized by persistently excessive empathy that significantly influences a person’s emotions, relationships, decision-making, and daily functioning. Individuals with OEPD may experience unusually intense emotional concern for others, often prioritizing the needs, feelings, and wellbeing of others above their own.

This heightened empathy can lead to emotional overwhelm, difficulty maintaining boundaries, excessive guilt, and chronic self-sacrifice. While empathy is often viewed positively, individuals with OEPD may experience distress or impairment due to the intensity and persistence of their empathic responses.

Symptoms can include:

• Excessively strong emotional responses to the emotions, suffering, or wellbeing of others.

• Difficulty regulating empathic reactions.

• Emotional contagion, including absorbing, mirroring, or internalizing the emotions of others.

• Feeling personally responsible for the emotions, wellbeing, or problems of other people.

• Excessive guilt, shame, or self-blame when unable to help others.

• Chronic concern about hurting, upsetting, disappointing, or failing others.

• Difficulty maintaining emotional, social, or interpersonal boundaries.

• Habitually prioritizing the needs of others over personal needs, wellbeing, or responsibilities.

• Strong urges to protect, rescue, support, or fix the problems of others, even at personal cost.

• Becoming emotionally invested in the struggles of strangers, animals, fictional characters, or distant individuals.

• Difficulty disengaging from concern for others once empathy has been activated.

• Emotional exhaustion, compassion fatigue, empathic burnout, or feeling drained by the emotions and problems of others.

• Increased vulnerability to manipulation, exploitation, or unhealthy relationships due to excessive concern for others.

• Difficulty making decisions that may negatively affect others, even when necessary.

• Defining self-worth through helping, caring for, or supporting others.

• Experiencing distress when witnessing conflict, suffering, injustice, cruelty, or vulnerability.

• Emotional overwhelm, stress responses, fatigue, tension, or sleep disturbances related to excessive empathic involvement.

• Social withdrawal, emotional shutdown, or reduced functioning resulting from chronic emotional overload.

Age Regression Personality Disorder

Individuals with ARPD may experience a strong and recurring pull toward younger mindsets, behaviors, interests, emotional states, or self-concepts. These experiences may occur voluntarily, involuntarily, or fluctuate depending on stress, comfort, safety, emotional needs, or environmental triggers. Age regression may serve as a source of comfort, emotional regulation, self-expression, identity exploration, or psychological protection.

Symptoms can include:

• Frequent or recurring age regression experiences.

• Strong identification with one or more younger age states.

• Shifts in behavior, interests, mannerisms, speech patterns, or emotional responses during regression.

• Increased feelings of comfort, safety, happiness, or emotional relief while regressed.

• Difficulty resisting urges to regress when emotionally distressed, overwhelmed, or seeking comfort.

• Using age regression as a primary coping mechanism for stress, anxiety, emotional discomfort, or daily challenges.

• Feeling emotionally disconnected from one’s chronological age.

• Preference for activities, media, hobbies, clothing, toys, comfort items, or environments associated with beings said age regressed groups.

• Experiencing different emotional needs, preferences, or perspectives while regressed.

• Difficulty functioning or maintaining responsibilities during intense regression episodes.

• Distress when unable to access regression-related comforts, activities, or safe spaces.

• Strong emotional attachment to caregivers, caretaker dynamics, comfort figures, or nurturing relationships.

• Feeling that age regression is an important or defining aspect of identity.

• Social difficulties related to misunderstanding, stigma, or concealment of regression experiences.

• Fluctuation between mature and regressed mindsets depending on circumstances, emotions, or triggers.

• Emotional vulnerability, sensitivity, or increased need for reassurance while regressed.

• Feeling more authentic, comfortable, or emotionally regulated while regressed than while functioning at one’s chronological age.

• Experiencing regression as voluntary, involuntary, or a combination of both.

Reader's disorder syndrome

This a disability that you can develop or be born with, it's mainly self indulgent, but Reader's disorder syndrome (RDS) is a MUS where reading or hearing about disabilities cause the reader to incorporate the symptoms of a disability into their everyday life to the point of having even others suspect they have that disorder, this is done unintentionally and those with RDS may not even realize they're doing so as it is completely out of their control.
