hi everyone kindly please Stop Giving This Post Notes oh my god our poor inbox

Sometimes being a system is "yes this one person has been fronting alone for the past five hours"

And sometimes it's "there's like 13 people near front and god knows which one of them is actually in control of the body right now"

today's (dumb) shower thought: W is the most plural letter

[symbiotecollective]

'Endogenic' doesn't mean 'no dissociation', it just means 'the thing that caused the system to be plural wasn't trauma.' (Or in other words 'a system that wasn't formed from trauma'). Examples of this include: other disorders/neurodivergencies, purposefully creating headmates, spiritual stuff, just being born plural, and more.

Endogenic systems can still dissociate—we do, for example! Because 'endogenic' doesnt mean 'doesn't have a dissociative disorder'. (Plus, dissociating doesn't mean you (/not targeted at anyone) have a dissociative disorder.)

Something I want to note is: Endogenic systems can still be traumatised. It's just not what caused their plurality.

Feel free to ask more questions, we like answering them ^^ (and apologies if my tone comes off as condescending ahsjsjs)

Would someone truly be able to explain endogenic systems to me? Because anytime I try and look at stuff I just get all jumbled. I want to be able to not be so iffy because it makes me feel even worse about myself ickk

The main thing I've seen is that there's no dissociation? Is that correct? Aaaaaa but again I don't know how that could be

Im just confused and I don't want to keep being upset over things I see all the time blehhhh. if I don't understand it then why should I be upset?

Explainatioms from multiple people/opinions would be appreciated also, I want to see other peoples views

so apparently we just. can't form doubles?

whenever a double starts forming they kind of just feel.. a repulsion to their sourced identity. if that even makes sense? like they feel the Need to change their identity because they can't be the thing they formed from for some.. abstract reason, i guess.

i dont really have any idea why this happens? something along the line of 'that identity is already taken', i assume. and to add to that we don't have anyone with the same (primary) name either.

this has happened a couple times now and i just find it interesting!

fictive culture is 'is it fanfiction if you're *technically* writing about yourself?"

[pt: #seventy-two]

Plurals, share art you or your members have created! It doesn't have to be art related to plurality, but it can be! Use this as a time to find art mutuals or to share a piece of art you didn't have the opportunity to share so far!

Art can be writing, drawing, painting, folding, making bracelets, crocheting, or any other creative project. Feel free to expand the term as needed.

👻 - do your alters/headmates have different voices or speech patterns?

in our headspace we've all got different voices but irl it's all the same (since we aren't out as plural yet sobs) BUT one day we want to change that, at least speaking to online friends!! we're hopefully gonna go to voice training at some point in the next year or so i think?

as for speech patterns, kind of? there's some like, tiny differences in the things we all say, but i dont think anyone could ever notice that unless you're us lmao (..and on that note actually it's not like we even really know what those differences are ourselves. lmao)
