okay juice i started screaming and laughing /pos, it is not a coded word (or maybe it is?) I wish i am that cool :)) plurality and system is quite public words (to my knowledge) but plurality is the "less medicalized" term out of the two, you might be more familiar with the terms DID system, OSDD system, etc etc, tho I am really uncomfortable with DID + OSDD labels so I opted a not mmm psychiatric centered language! if that makes sense? (hopefully )
Yeah I'm familiar with DID, and I came across some of the other terms in a thread about DID...I just didn't want to out you if you were trying to be a obscurative. I know there's a lot of misunderstanding around it, just trying to be sensitive. Just because something's medical doesn't mean its accepted and I see you're a newer an so might still be trying to get the lay of the land
So if you don't mind, some of these terms are kinda obvious, but what is "system" or "systeming"?
A system is like a group of identities/people (called headmates) that share a single body
Thanks
thank you Juice :))) yeah idk how to work this site!
systeming-> I am just playing around with language :) if a system is multiple people in one body, then "systeming" is the experience in action of experiencing being a system! like,,, "how's your system going?" (?) hopefully that makes more sense than not!
Thanks for explaining! So...how's your system?
genuinely chaotic, mayhaps? I keep feeling like they are not real and that denial smooth things over but they are also very much real and (AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH) yes I just.... I DON'T KNOW everything is complicated hahahaha :)))
Thanks for sharing, comrade. I'm sorry that you were made to doubt your own experiences. Ive felt like that before, for sure. Everything is complicated!
