Insert Funny Thing Here About Plurality Because I Remember I Had This Really Funny Idea For A Post In

plurality is so fucking weird because what do you mean the guy who takes showers for us just gave a random fictive the most logical, smart ass-sounding relationship advice ever seen

cw: mentions of familial discourse

anyone else still terrified to turn music down on their headphones even after parents are done fighting lol . -blurry

you know that feeling when you leave your Spotify playlist alone for a few weeks and suddenly you hate every song on there

to the few people/sys who went batshit crazy over catching a fly and got us not only extremely tired and almost made the body pass out, but also somehow shut ANYONE ELSE OUT who tried to front from sheer willpower and determination alone????? how do i eject someone from a brain

figuring out that the trauma holders weren’t lying to you when you discover physical evidence of the trauma occurring……… like bitch i thought you were saying that shit for shits and giggles?

i dont get it when people get mad at systems being happy or talking about mundane or silly parts of plurality. that doesnt discount the difficulties (and yes, it can cause difficulties even if your plurality wasnt caused by trauma) and some people just dont like talking about their issues online to a bunch of strangers. just because someone doesnt constantly talk about their suffering doesnt mean it doesnt exist.

Hello! Saw the ask a DID sys post and though we'd drop by. Personally we're curious- how do you cope with having so many beings in your system?

We're a collective of around 40-something at the moment, and we have reason to believe that our headcount will not stop growing, nor will it ever go down. This has caused some distress since we're not quite sure how that will work, and we already completely lack a clear roster of frequent fronters. We've been curious as to how others cope with "high" headcounts by most standards. (Although I recognize "cope" may not be the correct word, as it implies the high headcount to be a bad thing and not everyone would experience it as such.)

Hey! For us, we also have an unclear frequent fronter list and are frequently blurry. It was similar for us in a case where we would not stop discovering new members- and it still is that case for us. We try and cope with high headcounts by documenting activity from fronters whenever possible, along with adding various personal notes about them that may help us understand them better. We also try and establish their roles so we can better realize when they may be out- although it isn't always easy to find out, especially when a large number of them are unformed fragments. There's not exactly a way to 'cope', I'd say, but especially if there's a need for control, organizing and documenting them down definitely helps you feel more in control of your headcount numbers. Also to say, there's nothing wrong with having a high headcount. It's just a representation of how much your brain wanted and tried to protect you, no matter how much it took, even if its hard and stressful.

hi guys!!!!! idk if this question is too personal (if so just delete this from your inbox) but you mentioned being in love?????? i wnated to know how that would work with all of you guys needing to agree and also what is this person (or persons) like?????

hey! i definitely agree having a crush on another person outside of the system is definitely difficult sometimes, especially due to opposing opinions. however, it's super important to note that not all alters will have to be in a romantic relationship with the person aforementioned! while it's quite complicated and things definitely have to be worked out with the other people or person, it is totally possible depending on their preferences. of course, other alters may not have the same affection towards this person or people as others may, and to that it gets complicated. depending on comforts, could be a polyamorous relationship, open relationship, or monogamous relationship- whatever is most comfortable for both groups overall. as for the person/people, they're the sweetest ever, lol! very supportive, accepting, open-minded, albeit a bit stubborn and competitive at times but we love them for that and honestly think its adorable! :D would genuinely fight whatever lord or god above is there for them and it's just asdiufhuihrh. rambly stupid stuff, i won't talk about it too much, but we appreciate them a ton!

thank you for the question! we rambled a little hard there, sorry if we overshared or anything a little, lol. hope that helps answer your question!

thius..... some of us may be uncomfortable with doubles at times when they're just getting used to everything but im not stopping a guy from existing.........

fictive culture is worrying if your mutuals are okay with doubles
