Thanks for the assumptions, laughter, and misinformation. Have a nice day!

TW: Talk about Death and Injury, as well as Pregnancy

I hate it when people get fakeclaimed for things that happen in their innerworld. Yes, there very few "rules" that stand for an innerworld, such as alters being unable to die, but many things can happen in the innerworld that are commonly thought of as "faker behavior."

First of all, and honestly the most controversial one, alter pregnancy does exist. Alter pregnancy is a form of splitting. It's a way that the brain processes the split. Simple as that. The brain can come up with so many ways for a split to be visualized, so it only makes sense for a pregnancy to be possible in order to cover up said split.

Second, alter-on-alter abuse (physically) within the innerworld is possible. With this, injuries are also possible. Alter-on-alter abuse is a form of trauma reenactment. This can occur for many reasons that I will probably get into in another post, but that's usually why it happens. Injuries are also possible because the innerworld is a visualization tool. A visualization of someone's inner being could be injured due to a mental strain or injury. It can also be from the alter-on-alter abuse I talked about. This is simply a visualization of the alter's pain.

Third, and probably the least surprising thing on this list in my opinion, nonhuman alters. Nonhuman alters can form for many, many reasons, some being; feeling dehumanized due to trauma, seeking comfort in behaving as a non-human being, or trauma specific to the being/item that the nonhuman alter is. There can be many non-human alters. I've seen many things between dogs and cats, to even inanimate objects such as a fork or a rock. These nonhuman alters can be fully intelligent and completely concious, while others may not be. It all depends on the system and the alter itself.

TLDR; Stop calling people fake due to what a visualization tool shows. It's quite literally made by imagination, no matter how vivid and solid the visualization may be. There are many things that can occur, and it's always a system-by-system basis. If you don't experience it, that doesn't mean no one does. Respect your fellow systems.

You're a silly goofster, yk that? It seems to me that you're claiming healing and gaining communication between parts is impossible, so i hope you get the help you need and realize that healing is truly possible.

Also I had no clue being diagnosed and knowing about my system for around 8-9ish years meant that I'm an immature child that's only claiming to have DID because it's trendy *now.*

But whatever, we all make logical fallacies sometimes. I wish you the best!

I think it's stupid to say self diagnosis isn't valid. Yes, it's very very hard to find out you have DID. However, it's also pretty hard to intentionally block it and ignore it. Once you know, you know. Of course, there's imposter syndrome and the brain trying to hide it, but once you've identified the symptoms, it... doesn't really fit anything else.

Like, I've met other alters and I've gotten physical proof of their existence. And that's just.. not valid because I wasn't diagnosed at the time? Like. Make it make sense, fakeclaimers.

Tw/ Very light mention of substances

I hate those extreme anti-misinformation syscord servers. Not because they're anti-misinformation, but because they're against ANY system function they deem end0genic or "fake."

The one's Im talking about aren't the same as pro-education. They're not. The ones I'm talking about refuse to educate people and prefer to just hunt people down for being misinformed and/or using outdated/end0 terms.

Take for instance the term "system reset." This has been used in the past by end0genic systems to avoid accountability. We know this.

However, it can be used by those that don't know what other term to use. Perhaps they had mass dormancies and new frequent fronters split. Maybe they had a lot of success with therapy, fused a lot, but then split due to another situation.

There is NO way that *you* know the experiences of everyone else. Brains are extremely individual and diverse. What can happen in systems is only limited by the brain's ability to cover up trauma and/or come up with emotions or memories in place of something.

So yes, alter pregnancies are a thing, because they are just a way to view a split. Yes, system resets are technically possible. Yes, it is possible to get drunk or high or whatever in the innerworld. Literally anything. Calm the fuck down, and stop fakeclaiming your own community.

i am SICK of people deciding to mark any system experience that they see "weird" or "different" as an endogenic-supporting experience. Then they use that as an excuse to harass the system with said experience.

Endogenic systems aren't great, but that doesn't give you an excuse to harass them, especially when they person you're harassing isn't even endo in the first place.

One of my favorite things is endogenic systems trying to "prove" that they're valid by sending a CARRD link. Like. Tell me endos aren't real with it telling me endos aren't real

gotta love it when endos act like you're an idiot for not understanding their existence /s

Shoutout to all those systems that were "perfect" and "easy" in childhood, but were actually deeply traumatized and isolated.

Shoutout to those same systems that started showing signs of early trauma later on, and were then considered burdens and told that their trauma just "suddenly appeared"

With finals week and the semester coming to an end, I just want to tell everyone this:

Im proud of you for making it this far. Even if you believe no one out there is proud of you, let me be that person. I see you trying. Even if you don't have the energy to try as hard as you wish, you're still trying. That's worth the world.

Keep going. You can get better. You will get better.

Think systems with a high number of fictional introjects are a new phenomena? Kluft's paper on polyfragmented/extremely complex DID from 1988 includes a patient with LOTR introjects, and another based off of Shakespear's Tempest. Fictional introjects have been a thing for a very long time!

*me looking at my reflection* ain't no way

Recovery doesn't have to be your primary focus just yet.

It can be impossible for those in certain situations to heal just yet. Wether they're in a dangerous place in their life, or even just a very stressful place, they may not have the tools or ability to heal just yet.

And that's okay.

Sure, healing is what everyone deserves. Everyone deserves a chance to heal and have a better quality of life. However, survival is the only goal for some at the moment, and that's okay. You just have to survive. Leave the living for when you can.

Of course, you can heal a bit while being in a dangerous or stressful situation. It doesnt have to be 100% horrible at every possible moment. There can be therapy to help cope with the situation, and there can be certain skills one finds along the way to help that coping.

What Im saying is that you don't have to be focused on healing just yet if your survival is at stake. You're allowed to get hurt. You're allowed to get worse. Just don't let it overtake you. Keep fighting. I believe in you.

Shout out to systems whose abusers tried their best, but failed.

It can be so, so hard to have the good with the bad. You’ll remember the good times — the things they did right, the stuff you remember fondly — and think “it couldn’t have been that bad, if I still have these good memories.”

It can be. Two things can be true at the same time. Your abusers could have loved you so, so much, and done so much right — and still fucked up.

Shout out to all those with a complicated relationship with their abusers. Shout out to those whose abusers did their best to love you, but never could the way you needed. Shout out to those who weren’t purposefully abused, but still suffered.

Your suffering is seen here, and it is just as valid as anyone else’s.

Host Change

Hello! Tommy here! Long story short, I fused with our previous host, Oztin. I will now be essentially taking over this whole thing.

In other news, we changed our system name to The Lush Cavern! I love it!

Maybe expect more posts here? idk

why r u so cool

😊 shut up
