Let's talk DID and dissociation

Let's talk DID and dissociation

Hello all

@Former-Member, @Bellarose75, @BraveOne, @Nyx, @Fluttershy1, @Maggie, @Grace20212, @NoOne, @MySunrise, @Unlonely1, @destructive, @Lemonjuice and we are sure there are others who have DID or dissociation disorders but we haven't interacted with them so feel free to add others we missed.

We noticed that there is a lot of threads popping up about DID and decided that maybe having a thread we can all chat on and ask questions and give advice to each other would be good.

We thought we would start off by explaing who we are.

We call ourselves the dragon system.

Host/main/core goes by our username due to guidelines but the rest of us are happy to say our names it also helps people know who's responding.

Here is a list of all of us that we as a working system is aware of.

So I'm going to split it up into 3 groups, littles (0-10), middles (11-17) and bigs (18+).

So my littles are :

Kelly, 4, mute and trauma holder, Eshy, main

Sarah, 6, main

Strudle, 5, wolf shapeshifter, main

Brandon

Bianca

Brittney, 7, the BBB triplets

Sienna, 8, prefers CC

Dana, 4, trauma holder, AP

Leana, 6, trauma holder, AP

Cameron, 8, trauma holder

Kelsey, 5, trauma holder

Uunala, 4, trauma holder, Eshy

Stacey, 10

Tessa, 9, FS Trauma holder

My middles are:

Steph, 15, sporty, gender fluid

Daisy, 13, Artistic

Macey, 12, smart, Eshy

Repunzel, 16/17, Fictive

Elsie, 17, littles helper

Erin, 15, trauma holder, Sh, main

Iris, 11, positive empath, littles caretaker, main

Chloe, 14, littles caretaker, clean freak (possibly ocd)

Mermaid Princess, 15/17, unknown language

Zayella, 15, sad/grief empath, inner world protector

Casey, 13, troublesome, sh

Evie, 15/16, fictive

My bigs are:

Sapphire,18, wolf shapeshifter, system protector, main

Harmony, 30, protector, main

Honey, 19, sexual

Grant, age Slider, 18-25,

Lana, 20, negative empath

Holly, age unknown, demon, system persecutor, is a main but currently locked away

Twilight, age unknown, dragon, gatekeeper

We know not all people with DID have an inner world but we do. Host created inner world as an escape when she was 9 and it has become a major part of our system. For anyone wondering twilights role as gatekeeper is literally that our inner world is surrounded by a brick wall and has a large gate outside that is a giant Forrest and twilight keeps the bad out. Holly came before twilight did so it's probably the only reason she made it in.

We also have C-PTSD, anxiety, depression, social anxiety, and panic disorder. Host is severe asthmatic as well which we suppose makes us all asthmatic.

Anyway hope you like the idea of this thread and we are happy to chat anytime but we do apologize if we don't always answer straight away

Thanks

Harmony/babydragon

@Former-Memberwowswers thanks for sharing your expereinces around integration. I am constantly amazed how the body organises experiences and how everyone comes together internally.

Re: Let's talk DID and dissociation

Hi @Former-Member sorry to hear you're having a rough time. How are you today?

ive been floating around but not posting because not sure what I feel. @MySunrise how do you know when it's denial or when you're maybe right? It's so hard.

im feelings really depressed which is not usually me. I'm more the anxious type.

I did visit my new (only been seeing since Nov) GP to get a new MH plan and referral last week amd she was really lovely. It actually made me

feel more sad i think, that she was so nice, asked me to come back in 2 weeks. I don't know why her niceness made me sad. My last GP wasn't bad but I think she had kind of given up asking me things because I struggle to talk. They often think I do t talk because I don't want to do stop asking, which is lnt the case. I want to be able to tell this new lady that so she doesn't stop asking just because I'm silent.

Re: Let's talk DID and dissociation

@Unlonely1 Not sick of you at all. Just feeling I have nothing worthy to add, feeling depressed and a fraud. Hope you're ok

Re: Let's talk DID and dissociation

Hi all, I haven't been around much either because I haven't really had much to say. I also think I just say the same things over and over.
I only just read the last couple of days worth and have already forgot you wrote what but I totally understand the feeling sad thing when someone is kind or nice. I think for us it's a younger one longing for that nurturing. We actually go from sadness to anger for that reason and it's so exhausting.
I have been finding this discussion really encouraging, that I'm not alone in this thing.
So thanks everyone for being here even if it's just every now and again. Even if you feel like a fraud.
Hugs to you all

Re: Let's talk DID and dissociation

@destructive You asked me a question that I don't understand "how do you know when it's denial or when you're maybe right?"

I may have been someone else at the time. But I'm intrigued, can you help me understand the context?
