i think fakeclamining culture has done horrible damage to plural communities because NO SYSTEM AT ALL fits fakeclaimers idea of a "real system" and everything from actual DID symptoms to having an internet connection to being a person to being marginilzed to not being marginilzed (in the right ways) absolutely everything everything everything EVERYTHING!!! is used against us and made into an insecurity because people dont think we exist and cant imagine living like is and everything we do is wrong to them!!!
dont worry about "being a faker" or "looking like a faker" because fakeclaimers will use anything against you no matter what it is. having more or less alters wont help, being more or less distinct wont help, doing this or that wont make you less of a target. it sucks but its true. just dont listen to them. i know its harder said then done but fakeclamers are full of shit.
I once put together a list of some of the most ridiculous reasons I've seen for fakeclaiming. I haven't updated it in a few years, but let me tell you all, these people will find any reason to decide you are faking, because it's not actually about an actual "threat" of "invaders" or "liars" – that's just the defense they use when you point out that they're grasping at straws to make themselves feel good about their bigotry and close-mindedness. Fakeclaiming is a weapon used against those they don't like. It's not a logical argument, not a side you have to listen to, not an opinion that deserves validation. They will make up shit on the spot in an attempt to ostracize you. At best, they are misguided people turned jerks who think they are actually helping their community by making up nonsense rules and snapping at anyone who dares to exist in a way that they don't like. At worst, their bullshit turns into misinformation that entrenches itself in the plural community, harming countless systems, and we have to spend years educating people about what should be well-known basics on plurality.
People will fakeclaim you for experiences that have been documented in texts about DID for decades. People will fakeclaim you for having a diagnosis that's not given out in the U.S.. People will argue that using a single particular word in how you describe your experiences proves you've been secretly faking a system for all the years you've known yourself to be one. It's all just nonsense and should be treated as such.
Don't worry about faking – not about whether you're a faker, and not about whether anyone else is. Fakeclaimers don't deserve your worry. They don't deserve your time or mental energy. But you deserve better, so do yourself a favor and don't waste yourself on them
It’s super duper hard to follow other systems on here when nearly everyone we see is anti-endo!!
If you're a system related blog and you're pro-endo please, please, PLEASE interact!!
Anti-endos, please don’t be mean, we won't tolerate you meanies coming in to argue with us about being an endo system!! You will just immediately be blocked!! >:(
system r so funny. they’ll be like “this is zaggh’iigk destroy of worlds he is our collective father and a scrumbly little scrimbo” while talking about an inconceivable Eldritch enitity and then go “that’s Brad. brad will fuck you up” and they bitch they r talking about is a 5’6 white guy

share experiences about being an soc if you'd like! i'd love to hear about everyone's experiences.
i know i've had personal struggles with mental health and being asian, especially since the asian community doesn't like talking about mental health at all. it's heavily taboo in our culture to mention that someone is even physically ill sometimes, and it's considered rude to point out other people's illnesses. having a mental illness is seen as something embarrassing and shameful, which affected me a lot growing up, as i was taught to mask heavily in order to avoid the scrutiny and judgement of others.
in a lot of asian american communities, modern psychology is also seen as something only white people engaged in. my parents would always warn me about taking psychiatric medications because 'the white doctors were just trying to get me addicted so i would come back and give them more money'. having diagnosed illnesses was seen as a ploy by white people to keep our communities under control. because of this stigma surrounding psychiatry and mental health, it took me a long time to get the help that i needed.
being from a culture where mental illness is so stigmatized has affected me uniquely as a system of color. i think it's time we started speaking about our unique experiences and struggles. if you're a system of color, you're not alone out there, and your experiences can be more familiar to others than you think.
hey if you're an endo/endo-friendly plural can you do us a favour and like or rb this, we keep only getting sysmeds recommended to us and it's really getting us down :/
a member who becomes host due to hyperfixation, usually a fictive from a source the system is hyperfixating on. This role is usually temporary and the hyperfixation host will loose host role once the hyperfixation moves on or is replaced by a new one.
Our innerworld is a spaceship. Usually when we get new members, they appear in the airlock/entry bay. But one time, someone just went SPLAT on the window. Like a crane fly.
Non-disordered endogenic systems are so important to the plural community.
Plurality is such a subjective experience, and seeing so many systems with all sorts of differences sharing their experiences and resources and encouraging self acceptance is such a beautiful thing.
We personally have learned so much from endogenic non-disordered systems, which we may write about more later. We’re so grateful we found the inclusive plural community!
To all the non-disordered endogenic systems out there, we hope you have a good day/night!
I love what you do. @toxic-biohazard - Tumblr Blog | Tumgag
