#my jaw is kinda funny#no it’s not it’s the worst#but it does work so points for that I guess#anyway it’s almost always tense and lots of muscle knots and shit#its frequently causing me headaches#and last time I was at my new chiropractor he gave me a stretching exercise for me to do whenever it hurts#and it worked great the first time it relieved some of the pain it was more relaxed it was great#it worked the second time as well#the third time however the muscles must’ve not been as tense holding it tightly together#bc my hypermobility showed up instead#and all of a sudden my mouth was the limiting factor#the corners of my mouth started hurting form being stretched out so much and my jaw could’ve still moved if there had been enough ‘skin’#which is so fascinating#I know my jaw is one of my more hypermobile places#or at least one that causes me a lot of issues#anyway today the stretching exercise worked and helped#and was lot limited by my mouth#which isn’t even small to begin with 😂

16. How does DID/OSDD affect you physically?
Hard to tell what's DID and what's just generally body falling apart disease, but my chronic pain stuff can get worse or better depending on who's up front and how they're doing. Littler parts like to show off how our arm can bend backwards bc of hypermobility business, which sucks ass for the rest of us bc it hurts like hell. Glad it makes them happy tho. Toris also gets stomachaches easier and nausea when he's anxious, instead of getting headaches like most of us. Littler parts generally make us feel less pain, which is odd but nice. H is v health minded and remembers to stretch and exercise, which helps a lot.
17. What aspect of recovery are you working on right now?
I would call it diagnostics, I guess? Not diagnosing me, I've already been diagnosed, but like. Logging for myself the symptoms other people notice in me. Being more aware of myself and my body and my mind. My therapist says I need to stop pretending I don't have DID. So I guess also. Letting out tension, which sorta goes w the previous thing. Stop pretending I don't have symptoms, and log those symptoms instead.
23 I answered earlier!
