Attention Plurals and Singlets with Plural Friends!
Do you ever talk on voice call or in person with other systems, people who know you're a system, or system friends?
I'm a system majoring in Linguistics at college, and for my graduation project I want to study the way system members may or may not speak differently from one another out loud. Last semester, I studied correlations between typing style and system role; you can find information on that project here: https://www.tumblr.com/bellaswansong/745591248457482240/language-use-and-system-role-in-plural-communities
I want to hear from singlets. I want to hear from systems who don't make any deliberate effort to speak differently from each other. I want to hear from systems who work very hard to learn specific accents. I want to hear from systems who do a few things to sound different from each other but maybe not very many. I especially want to hear from anyone I may have left out in these examples.
You can find the questionnaire here: https://forms.gle/DPoezH3eG36moVLy8
Please read the entire consent document on the first page of the form.

It can sometimes be hard to decide whether to leave an abusive or harmful situation. You may feel like you are better off staying for logistical reasons like if you are financially reliant on someone else, and are worried about not being able to access resources. You may want to stay so that you are able to stay in contact with someone else (like if an abusive parent controls access to a sibling or if you don’t want to lose a friend). You may love the person, and not yet be emotionally ready to give up on them changing. Whatever your reasons are for choosing to stay only you were allowed to make that decision and nobody should pressure you to leave or blame you for any abuse that happens before you are ready to leave.

+ much more

It’s okay if your healing journey isn’t going as planned. These journeys seldom do.
You can still get through this. It’s okay to slip up, go backwards or stall out.

i hate the way mental illness is conceptualized in general but specifically on here where there’s this weird focus on disorders defining what symptoms you have rather than disorders being the constructed result of the symptoms that you have, which exist outside of the framework of the disorder

So much more than "I feel like I'm someone else" , DID is so often "I feel like I'm in someone else's life". Like, this is not my house, these are not my clothes, that is not my cat, you are not my friends, but I've got to carry on anyway as though they're all mine and just hope that no-one notices that I'm walking in someone else's skin

it’s okay if it feels hard to make friends.
it’s okay if making friends take time.
it’s okay if you haven’t found your people yet.
it’s okay if you’re not going out on the weekends.

Respect and support all psychotic people.
Respect and support psychotic people in psych wards.
Respect and support psychotic people in prison.
Respect and support psychotic people who use drugs.
Respect and support psychotic people who can't hide their symptoms.
Respect and support psychotic people who are homeless.
If you say you respect and support psychotic people no one is exempt.
If you are disgusted, scared of, or laugh at psychotic people on the street that talk to themselves you cannot say you respect and support psychotic people.
Just because a psychotic person is less privileged, and less socially acceptable to you, does not give you a pass to be sanist.
This shouldn't have to be said but every human deserves basic respect.
People who are mentally ill, have no money, have no support, can't hide their symptoms, make bad choices and don't fit into the social norms, are not any less human than anybody else.
