#system problems

[cosmicvenusnebula]

When you get to comfortable using "We" pronouns and accidentally use it in front of someone you probably shouldn't:

[dreamersxx]

Reminder that you can wholeheartedly love your system and sysmates and still have days where you feel tired of being a system. Sometimes being a system makes hard days easier, but sometimes it makes them harder, and that’s okay too.

Not to be taking syscourse jokingly, because its real issues within the community and it is causing a lot of harm...

But if endos and other nontraums can "choose to one day be a system"

Does that mean actual systems get to choose to be singlet?

LoOOK AT ME GUYS IM A SINGLET!! MY SEVERE AND EXTREME TRAUMA HAS BEEN CURED!!!

*gives a headmate a high five* WHOA!!

I wonder if systems know that engaging in syscourse or in discourse in general can be a form of self harm

Subjecting yourself to ableists, racists, ect. knowing that you won't change their mind can really fuck you up

Stay safe x

When you switch several times during a conversation and you just have no idea what's going on anymore or what you're even taking about

Me: I have no amnesia, I must not be a system

Also me, while watching a video on DID: why are all these comments liked I've never seen this youtube is broken

[secretsideblogshhhh]

Don't out people as systems. Ever. Not unless you have their explicit permission.

We were out at the mall with the hosts partner, who is also apart of a system. And while talking to a worker, the worker did something and said "oh I'm so stupid, my bad"

And the hosts partner just responds so casually with "oh we're both alter systems, so we've got plenty of stupidity to go around don't worry about it" and gestures between us and them.

It seems so small but it scared us so badly that we ended up in a very painful dissociative state the rest of the day.

If you can be casual about your system to strangers that's great. But never assume that other systems are the same way, regardless of how open they are with you about it.

I'd say that the people with a DNI have the right idea but I watch them get shit from endos anyways so it seems pointless

if anything it looks like it encourages them, knowing they're not welcome.

[the-cute-haunted-galaxy]

I hate endos and endos supporters that don't care about boundaries. I hate them in general but we put the anti endo and endo DNI tag for one reason only. So they wouldn't interact. If someone puts in there bio/tags anti endo DNI we do one thing. Block them. It's much easier and takes few seconds then to write a comment and the get blocked. So dear endos and endos supporters: PLEASE DNI WITH PEOPLE THAT PUT THE ENDO DNI TAG SOMEWHERE. Thanks for listening

I wish people understood that being a system doesn’t inherently make you feel less alone

We can try to help each other out as much as we want, but, no matter what we do, we’re all still trapped inside the same derailing train

A short poem about being an introject/fictive based alter

[dreamersxx]

You don’t have to use sign offs if you don’t want to! Whether it’s because your system is too blurry to use them, because you prefer to keep that information private or something else entirely—you absolutely don’t have to.

You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to just because other systems are doing it.

[ghxst-system]

trying to do ANYTHING is impossible with DID

respond to important emails?

no ur gonna switch halfway through and forget everything u need to say as well as EVERYTHING else ur gonna do because the protector needed to handle it

make food and care for the body?

sure u can do one thing but its gonna take u hours longer than necessary because u cant quite focus and forget ever step

watch a FUCKING YOUTUBE VIDEO??

nope here's a trigger so ur gonna dissociate through it and be upset after at not remembering any of it

we can barely hold a fucking conversation unless we feel safe which is RARE because we live in an actively unsafe environment

this disorder is DISABLING

[lemony-ink]

there's very little that feels worse than feeling like you made a close friend and having them switch up on you because of changes in the system.

I understand that it can be hard for singlets to process but making every conversation about how you miss a specific alter and how sad you are that the memories with them are gone...

I even comforted him the first times he brought it up but he won't stop, it's been 5 months.

Gods I miss being a machine. I miss feeling the wires beneath my skin, the confidence of knowing that once I cut past the dermis all there is is just wires and metal rods, knowing that pain is insignificant as I feel my servos and motors surge with power. I miss not needing air, I miss not needing to eat or sleep, but having the option to do so at my leisure. I miss feeling electricity pulsing through my veins, feeling the raw energy. There's nothing like it, and I wish I had it when I front.
