So this is meant to be IFS related, but the recent rumor uptick of Hayden voicing Shadow works well with this too!~

I’m stuck in a part and I can’t get out a specific way of thinking
It’s frustrating
I’m stuck in Scarce, my part who doesn’t trust people and thinks they’re a burden for everything and selfish

I finally identified my first Exile, and it's the one that craves cuddly pets despite it being the worst idea ever.
Now I just need to find oit how to negotiate with them because I CANNOT get a pet bunny, kid.

Sometimes I think dang some of my classmates and coworkers have a go-to theoretical framework for therapy that they love, like specializing in CBT or DBT or IFS, and I feel weird for taking such an eclectic approach. Like should I put more time into learning one system really well instead of taking bits and pieces from everything I see?
And then over the course of one mutual therapy sesh with a classmate friend I applied both diet advice and art advice to her communication troubles in her relationship in a way that really worked. So I think probably I just am the way I am.

IFS!Piett. Logic and Reason. Probably the oldest member of the system. Loves saying “It is what it is”.
“It is easy to be logical. It is almost impossible to be logical to the bitter end.” - Albert Camus.

can you do like. median tulpamancy? like creating facets
I believe so.
I talk about this a bit in my Foundations post.
I call this Splintering, where you take an existing part of yourself and through tulpamancy-like practices, talk to it and treat it like its own person until you've dissociated from it enough that it becomes its own entity.
It's not that different fron Internal Family Systems therapy.
The only issue is that once that part is fully independent and self-aware, you can't control them. So even if they start as a facet, they may deviate into a full headmate.
Deviation should be taken into account before beginning any sort of tulpamancy.

we recently told our therapist about ourselves and we was quite understanding. She has a focus on trauma reprocessing so I think she has a background in this in some way.
Anyway, she sent us some information on Internal Family Systems. it was out first time hearing about this and as a general framework this makes a fair amount of sense for us.
We brought it up to our partner system who shared reservations about IFS and after reading more about it, we see where they're coming from.
Have you encountered IFS before? If so, is there any literature you've that you recommend? We're generally curious for the opinions of other systems, as we see the value in it as a framework for understanding ourselves and also the problems with it for what feels like reducing the experiences of other systems, particularly those with DID/OSDD.
hey, we have a little bit of experience with ifs through therapy and reading about it online. online, we have seen how it has been used in the past to dismiss and discredit dissociative disorders (some say that the parts mentioned through ifs disprove did systems being parts themselves). we have also seen it used to prove and affirm plurality, even plurality without trauma (some say that the parts that make them up through ifs do in fact make them plural).
our own host (hi) greatly benefits from ifs, and has been trying to understand the different parts of himself (not parts as in headmates, but parts as in parts through the ifs model) in order to show himself more kindness and self compassion. treating the different aspects of himself as separate individuals in need of care and attention has really been helping him, and we’re trying to support him in this however we can. we hope to be able to share this mindset with some other members in our system who similarly struggle with self hatred.
we think that recognizing each individual alter as their own multi-faceted person, each made up of their own parts with wants, needs, and desires, has really helped to humanize those of us in our system who were so dehumanized in our youth. each alter, each part, is complex and is capable of having their own parts that come together and make them up. does that make sense?
as far as literature, most of what we know about ifs we’ve learned through therapy. however, we currently have the book no bad parts: healing trauma and restoring wholeness with the internal family systems model (<- amazon link) on our reading list. we haven’t read it yet, so we can’t say for sure how helpful it is, but it looks like it’s going to be a good read.
we don’t believe that there’s any framework or model of viewing the self out there which is 100% good or 100% bad. not everyone is going to get something out of the ifs model, and that’s okay. if you find that ifs works for you, and that each member of your system coming to understand their own parts helps them heal and become better people, then awesome, you should definitely use it! if you find your system feels dismissed or demeaned by the ifs model, you shouldn’t be required to use it at all. not every framework is going to work for every person all the time, and that’s okay. heck, for systems, not every headmate may benefit from the same frameworks that the rest of their system uses, and that’s okay too!
sorry if this response seems frazzled or all over the place. we had completely finished responding when tumblr crashed, so we had to try and rewrite this from memory (oops). we hope that y’all can learn and grow together, with or without the ifs model. if you choose to not use it in your recovery process, hopefully your therapist will be understanding. wishing y’all the very best.

I wanna write a detailed analysis/argumentative essay about how the skills in disco elysium can be seen as an analogy for parts work/internal family systems therapy. I don't care if anyone else will ever read it it just has to be done

I am honoring my true self by allowing myself space to be enraged.
I love you, me. Your anger is valid. I ignored you for too long and I'm sorry.

I took some notes while listening to Dr. Ham and Stephanie Foo's insta live talk (starts at 45:10). Some tips for people who cannot afford or don't have access to therapy atm (me lol). Dr. Ham also employs parts work, so if you don't know anything about it look up IFS and Robert Schwartz.
The essence of what trauma does:
it makes you afraid of other people, that they are out to get you
it makes you think that you are unloveable
it recreates the pattern of trauma, fear, neglect, abuse in the way you treat yourself
the harsh inner critic is the most classic abusive part
What you can do:
get to know how you treat yourself
understand the functions of all those parts (with love and reception)
you have to basically bring everybody back home
everybody (parts) has been out in the cold playing these very rigid roles (like the inner critic, who is constantly beating you up and saying you're no good, etc...)
you have to relieve the inner critic (who is simply trying to keep you from "getting in trouble" again) from their post
remind them that you survived the trauma (and childhood) and that you now can stomach some disappointment and failure
you have to thank the inner critic for merely trying to protect you and keep you safe
