#ive been procrastinating writing about it because it has a shit ton of heavy topics

cartman 🌻📈❤️🦿🌞

gonna talk about mostly his sillies (aka his DID), but he also has NPD and ASPD in my au, besides some kind of mania/delusions {disclaimer: i do NOT think people with these disorders would tipically act the way cartman does in canon, this is just a headcanon of mine and should not encourage discrimination and/or stigmatization of anyone with these disorders}

🌻 - Do they do anything that helps manage their disability?

Deal with it and hope the worst passes quickly 😭 since he's around 18, he takes antipsychotics to deal with most of the rather dangerous delusions and stuff (which is why the m5 let him live with them ;w;), but the meds didn't help with all the dissociation - it actually took him a Long time to learn to manage the whole meds thing in a way that didn't make him all blurry and dissociated All The Time, but in the end he did :) Also he has a notebook to track switches and conversations between alters, they have worked on internal communication but they're not the best at it so most of the time they just write it down (which also helps with memory issues)

📈 - What age was their disability formed, or became apparent, at?

Their DID was caused by trauma and neglect mostly, which happened to him until he was 6-7 years old. The symptoms of it, however, were confused with him just "playing around" as a kid, until it wasn't playing around and it became actually hard to manage and disabling as fuck-

❤️ - Would they have any advice for someone else struggling with their disability?

"No, screw you" (😭)

🦿 - Do they know anyone with the same disability as them? Are they close?

He knows a bunch of people with PDs (perks of living in a town where everyone is traumatized ig), but he doesn't know anyone with DID - closest would be Kenny, who is otherkin and dissociated more often than not (😭pt2)

🌞 - What does a 'good day' look like for them? Is there anything they like to do on their good days?

Good days would be days with low dissociation, high control over switches and good internal communication. There's nothing specific they like to do on good days - however, if an alter wanted to do something, they use to trigger them to front so they can do whatever it was :)
