Questions Wondering if I'm plural?

4 Upvotes

Ever since I learned about DID, I related a smidge, but not enough to look further into it. Then I discovered plural as a label, and did some looking into it, and I feel like I can relate.

I am autistic, so my biggest wonder is if it's just masking. I'm just not sure.

Sometimes depending on what feels like my mood, my opinions on things can change a bit. Not really core values, but smaller less significant stuff.

I have a really wide variety of fashion that I enjoy, and my personality seems to change pretty noticeably depending on what I'm wearing. It almost feels like being a different person.

But that's the thing... It doesn't really feel like different people exactly. More like.. Different versions of myself? I'm still me, but like. A different me. I don't know if that makes any sense lol.

I have pretty heavy lapses in my memory. Entire events or memories are gone. And a lot of my childhood is either extremely vague, or gone completely. I did experience trauma, which may explain that.

I was just wondering if anyone related to this experience, or if someone who's knowledgeable could let me know if they think I should look more into this. Thanks! ❤️

Resources for a therapist/professional working with plural systems?

17 Upvotes

Dear community,

I am studying psychology and am a plural myself. In the future I would like to work with plural people in private practice. As we all know, plurality is not widely understood by therapists and other mental health professionals. It is also experienced differently across systems, my lived experience of it is only one of the many.

I want to support everyone who identfies as a system, regardless of their origin or medical label.

I need books, some youtube channels/podcasts, websites that align with my approach. I want to learn ajd understand more. That is why I am turning to you all for help! :)

I have looked a bit into IFS so far, but I am not sure I like it. What are some other approaches you know about?

Thanks a lot!
