Shoutout to singlets that accept systems for who they are. Singlets who ask respectful questions and try to understand us. Singlets who do their best to accommodate different headmates and make them feel included. Singlets who listen to what systems have to say. You're so important. Please keep doing what you do.

"I'm okay with you having DID, I just don't want to talk to or meet any of your alters."

I'm an alter too, you know. Every single time you've interacted with me, I'm an alter. Even before you knew I had DID, even before I knew I had DID, we've been speaking to each other as various different alters. To ask to only interface with one singular version of me because you find the other versions of me uncomfortable to be around is hurtful.

We have little to no control over who's fronting at any particular time. We switch a lot, that's the nature of my system. Even we don't know who's fronting all the time, not least because we're discovering new parts still all these years later.

And, ultimately, they're all me. If you've only met one version of me and like that one version of me, do you truly like me? If you've only ever gotten to know me in that particular mode, how well do you actually know me? How can you say you love me when there's all these other me's that you cast aside and ignore?

You can't say you're okay with my DID but then ask to never get to know my alters. Because, ultimately, that means you never get to know me. And that means you're not okay with my DID- or with me.

I feel like it’s important for me to remind the DID community that a good majority of the people with DID are not going to have high alter counts. They’re not going to be overt. They’re not going to have tons of fictives and fully formed identities.

This is common to see online, but the truth is that this is not what DID is going to look like a majority of the time. Is it possible? I would say yes, if just because there’s not enough research about DID and how the human mind works. But most people with DID are not going to look like what you see online.

you cannot be a system without trauma js

Having DID and having friends is weird because at some point or another I feel like an imposter. I know other altars don’t like certain friends that others like and I kind of just have to try and be the same person all the time.

I liked you yesterday and was so excited to talk to you but today I can’t stand you and I don’t know when your friend will be coming back but since I love her I’ll try and tolerate you.

If that makes sense.

i’ve never heard someone put it into words.

I think a system thing that fails to be represented is how difficult basic hygiene can be, simply because mirrors are so scary. it's hard to look at a reflection that isn't yours, acknowledge a body that isn't yours. it's very easy to skip out on things that most people consider easy, like showering or brushing your teeth or washing your face. it's tough, and it's valid to be freaked out by it. go easy on yourself
