atypical euphoria and dysphoria flags

flags for anyone who has atypical euphoria or dysphoria

atypical meaning outside of what's usually considered when talking about dysphoria (like age or species euphoria instead of gender dysphoria) but if you have your own definitions of these that works too ‼️‼️

[alterpathy]

Alterpathy: The practice of identifying, categorizing, and identifying with fictional and imagined illnesses due to a disconnect between your external and internal understanding of yourself - while also not intending to appropriate, romanticize, or cause harm to a minority group.

this is going to be a really long post because i want to cover all the basics. future coinings will not be nearly as long.

identifying, categorizing, and identifying with: making flags, coining terms, and posting about your experience. alterpathic conditions can also be divided into a couple of categories, which are detailed later in the post.

disconnect between your external and internal understanding of yourself: for some reason, even though you're aware that this isn't how conditions that affect the body work, you experience a reoccurring condition that is serious to you. this can be because of atypical dysphoria, delusions, alternate beliefs, delusions, or anything else similar.

appropriation, romanticism, causing harm: this doesn't mean that actions you take are automatically excused of harm, but it's a silent agreement and nodding between yourself and others that you're not trying to come from a place of ableism/bigotry.

ignoring/excusing bigotry: examples of ignoring/excusing bigotry would be implying that someone can "coin" a real mental illness/other condition in the same way you can coin a gender, implying you can "transition" into a congenital condition with subliminal videos or otherwise, and anything else that goes against science's understanding of illness and neurodivergence. there's nuance to this, of course, because the psychology field isn't an absolutely perfect field that can do no wrong - it's up to the person coining/the person identifying to look at the situation and act accordingly.

examples of situations that might bring you to identify this way:

being a fictive/kin/introject/etc of a character who had a disease or type of injury that was invented for their media, like zombie diseases, cyberbrain cclerosis, the cutie pox, hanahaki disease, etc, and feeling affected by it in any way

experiencing something in your system's headspace that's like a reoccurring illness

having limbs like wings, tails, horns, etc in your headspace with some kind of damage to them that causes you phantom discomfort

feeling anxiety/frustration because you're experiencing something on a metaphysical level which you know your physical body isn't experiencing, but it's still very serious to you and possibly even hurting your quality of life

grammar:

alterpathy: 1) the practice of naming/making flags/categorizing these, "here's my mogai blog and here's my alterpathy blog"; 2) this kind of condition. "my depression and my alterpathy make it hard for me," "i might have an alterpathy but i'm not sure"

alterpathic: descriptor that describes these conditions. "it's alterpathic," "how to cope with alterpathic..."

inspiration and some context on why we're coining this

this was largely inspired by the r*dqueer term of x*nomalady, because after the system looked into it, we did see a lot of cases of people who were genuinely experiencing something serious, but didn't seem to think that there was any space other than the rqc that would be accepting of someone identifying with a disease that technically didn't exist. these cases were mixed in with genuinely ableist people who displayed the behaviors i listed above in "ignoring/excusing bigotry," which feels wrong to me, and i think that people who aren't intending to harm anyone deserve their own terminology and space.

crossover

there is some crossover with dissodic, desirdae, intusui, ethix +etc good faith terms related to feeling like you have, internally have, desire, or identify with something you technically don't, and i think that's fine. you can identify with an alterpathic term and the equivalent of it in another term umbrella, that's fine. do whatever fits best to describe your experiences.

so, is this just x*nomalady but Good?

not exactly, i don't want this to be thought of as a 1-to-1 anti rq equivalent, because again, some x*nomalady people are just coining """disorders""" for fun because they think you can do that in the same way you would a gender. this is both an identity/experience, and a silent agreement to be critical of what you're putting out into the world. this is also not focused on "coining" new conditions unless that's really necessary. (not necessary = making up a new illness for funsies. necessary = putting a name to a reoccuring condition you've been experiencing in headspace, etc.)

in the same way that terms like dissomei and intusui aren't 1-to-1 tr*nsid but Good and are separate term umbrellas that have their own nuances and notes, this is a good-faith alternative for people genuinely experiencing this kind of thing.

can i coin my own?

yes, this is open to everyone to coin! though, i will be posting a couple of flags for some alterpathic things in a couple of days, so you might want to wait until those come out so you can see how i format the post.

TDLR: considering yourself to have a condition that's not possible in reality because of some internal identity, but not in a fashion where you ignore/excuse bigotry.

can i post this term on…

wiki/term definition sites: yes, and you don't have to ask, but i would like to be informed.

pinterest/other social medias: no, never, i'm not comfortable with someone else posting my term for me.

subtypes:

when a different self began working on this, he set out two subtypes of alterpathic condition. unlike something like the age ratings in nichelink, these are absolutely optional, and you don't have to include these in your term definition if you don't want to/don't find it useful. but i think that if you're like me and like lots of details, these could be appealing, so i will include what he wrote:

Fiction-based. This is aimed at conditions that are established some way in a work of fiction/media, such as:Hanahaki Disease Slender Sickness Radiation Sickness (as seen in the Fallout series, not the IRL version) Environment-Based. Specific conditions that you can recognize are happening because of things already in your environment, like trauma, alterhuman labels, existing neurodivergent symptoms and so on. As an example, I'll mention the specific thing one of the alters in my system has that inspired me to make this subtype. He is a fictive of an angel character, but from my perspective it is vary obvious that his wings don't work and cause him muscle cramps in our headspace as a metaphor for an injury we had when were a child that gave us severe muscle cramps and required extremely painful and traumatizing physical therapy. That's something that was in our environment, so I'd call it environment-based. Subtypes are an optional category though, and you might not be able to decide/understand if yours fits into one or both, and that's fine. Also, I acknowledge that just two subtypes might not be enough to cover all the bases, and also there are probably tons of conditions that fall into both or inbetween, and that's fine. I want to "cross that bridge as we come to it", and let people who identify with this tell me their thoughts about what other words need to be coined.

flag inspiration rambles

this flag went through a lot of design phases. it was originally much more inspired by the general disability flag, because we imagined that most of the appeal would be to people who are actually disabled (mentally ill people, etc). the final flag became more inspired by existing terms for people who experience a disconnect between themself and their conditions. i saw many examples of shades of purple and pink, scalloped stripes/rounded shapes, and specifically these flags were the biggest inspirations:

Xenability

(Z-nah-bility)

A term for people who internally have abilities that human bodies cannot.

This term is aimed mainly at people who are plural, non-human, maladaptive daydreamer ect… this term could be used to help relieve dysphoria

This term differs from dissomei and such, as this person has said ability(ies) just not in their ‘physical form’.

This term is anti-radqueer and isn’t to be used for disabilities. It was originally meant for in-human abilities in general but I suppose some exceptions can be made if the user seems fit.

One can be partially or fluctuate with a Xenability.

Some examples could be:

Magibility- A cenability relating to magic

Flibility- A xenability relating to flight

Fangbility- a xenability relating to fangs

The second and third flag are for those who are Demi-Xenability, partially having said ability.

This was made for one of our headmates in particular.

The emoji code could be:

DissOCverse

[PT: DissOCverse]

DissOCverse, a dissomei umbrella describing a disconnect one has with their external self to some degree, this can be species, character, hearthrome, body, cognitive, physical, religious, etc. whether it be because of delusional or IRL attachments, being an alter that is a thing while the body isn’t, psychosis, etc., feel disconnected from their external self. This is not for "fun" or voluntary , this also doesn't override the external being of the person is/has. This term is against transitioning if it harms the user or stigmatizes/appropriates any groups.

In headspace my piercings don’t stay and/ or straight up reject

The body actually has a fair amount of scars, but I don’t, and even our body does not have enough

The top surgery scars are because I have gynecomastia (the body does not)

Magibility

(Madge-I-bility)

a general xenability related to magic.

This can mean many things. For example:

* Having the ability to use magic

* Having the ability to use certain magic

* Being resistant to magic

* Being born/created by magic, thus having super-natural abilities

* Being able to decipher magic codes/texts/scrolls/writings

* Being able to sense magic

* Being able to touch magic

*Being able to consume magic

Ect….

This was ment to be as broad as possible and can be used in almost infinitely different ways.

As xenabilities were coined with people that have intricate headspaces/brainspaces/worlds/paraverses (what I call internal worlds for people who MaDD), how magic works/does typically differs from individual to individual.

This was intended for people who live in worlds where magic isn’t a given ability (as in, super common- everyone has it in said world) but it may be used by people who do live in those worlds.

Here are some Demi- versions for people who only relate partially with this identity!

[nichelink]

Idol+Fan: an All-Ages nichelink relationship/relationship dynamic where one person is the "idol" and the other/s are the "fan."

this may include, but is not limited to:

the idol genuinely wanting to become a famous performer like an idol and the fan wanting to be their first dedicated fan

the fan supporting the idol by commenting on all their videos/content

the fan already idolizing the idol due to having dependent personality disorder, the idol craving praise due to having narcissistic personality disorder, or similar disorders

the idol being dissovocalist, dissoidol, idol occuden, desiridol or similar terms

the fan having obsessive/fixation/parasocial tendencies and the idol wanting to help them find an outlet that is risk-aware and safer due to only being between them

attraction types/terms like adornic, voixeic, harmonic, modicelebrous, ultiaurul etc

nichelink coining

tagging: @radiomogai | @musicamogai | @disso-lovesong

i will be anxious if i don't mention this: i'm aware that the irl idol culture is pretty toxic and harmful to idols. but this term is intending for less intense versions of things that would be harmful irl and no justification of what's happened to irl idols is intended.

[redacted-coiner]

Dissomultiself

[PT: Dissomultiself

Dissomultiself, an Dissomei term that refers to a disconnect a person feels towards their Multiself status due to a multitude of factors, this can be delusional or IRL attachments, being an alter that Multiself status differs from the body, psychosis, etc. This is not a for "fun" label or a voluntary "I wanna be this ✨️", this also doesn't override external Multiself status and is to merely acknowledge the disconnect.
