System Protip: If Trying To Keep Track Of Your Switches And Fragments Feels Impossible And Is Driving

Rb if you were/are a gifted kid I wanna see how many of us ended up here

getting really into journaling is so fucked because you will fr end up with pages like "dear diary, it's fucken wimdy today!!!!! also I might be a talentless hack with no real creative drive or discipline to speak of. xoxo ✨"

caretaker casually revealing they’re a bear is not something i put on my 2025 system bingo card

tw : shooting

i feel like getting shot would feel so interesting for two seconds and then it would probably feel bad

no because tell me why these stupid ass head motherfuckers are always the most active at the least important times. like they wont show up during actually important shit but when somebody thinks about what the weakest bone in the body is, FIFTEEN PEOPLE SUDDENLY APPEAR????

from system to system.. how to unblur… in the past two or three months we’ve had clear knowledge of whose fronting a total of thrice… please i can’t do this anymore😭 -blurry

Hey, you all doing okay?

Just figured I'd ask :)

Yeah! We're doing great, thank you for asking! We told a friend (singlet) about our plurality recently and they took it really well, so we're in a great mood at the moment! Our birthday is also coming up, so lots of joyous occasions recently, lol.

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.

shoutout to the headmate who does things that their headmates can’t do anymore in their place because it’s too difficult or triggering for them. love you all out there. you do a lot of work for your system. <3
