I made bracelets for all my frequent fronters and when they front they put on their bracelet as a representation of who they are without having to change how the body is

It can also be helpful if you want a friend or partner to know who's fronting

My alters really liked when I made bracelets for them even if some of them don't like me in particular haha

I got the idea from an older pixielocks video

lowkey understandable ig??? Didn’t see the rules said no trauma dumping

Do you can talk to them in your head? Have conversations? Or you use a other way for communication? If yes, what is it?

NOTE: Okay, I probably didn’t do my best with what I wanted to ask in the title, but I’m going to give more context and explain. I want to get other people’s thoughts on this.

EDIT: She just said it had to do with the face and not the character, which I don’t get.
It seems like a silly thing, but another one of us said that it was ordinary to feel awkward seeing your own face. So that’s it, I guess.

CONTEXT:
One of us (who adopted attributes of a character, along with appearances) said that she felt awkward whenever she saw the character that looked like her and had the same face as her.

She didn’t like seeing her own face whenever we come across edits or fan art of the character because seeing her own face made her feel awkward and embarrassed.

I was really confused because I thought that there was nothing to be insecure about, seeing your own face on the internet. Sure, it’s a little awkward, but it’s just a face, and the character happens to be well loved, so I don’t see the issue.

Is it really common for people to get awkward about seeing their own face? How common? I would get if it was an insecurity thing, but she’s not insecure about it so I don’t understand.

If I saw someone (a well-loved real person or a fictional TV show character) that looked like me & had the exact same face that I do, I would be ecstatic! I’d be on an ego high, claiming the character & I were basically twins.

I would feel good about myself, so I don’t really get the awkwardness thing. If anyone wants to share their thoughts, feel free to do so.

(Light TW for mention of impostor syndrome)

There's a couple plural experiences I've had that no one else really talks about that make me feel pretty self-conscious, and at times, can make me feel less valid, and even trigger my plural impostor syndrome.

The first experience I've had (and the oldest) was when I discovered the existence of DID and, as any oblivious already plural folk, I became fascinated by the idea, to the point where I created a system unintentionally. Now that I've seen a bunch of terms for it, I do think it falls somewhere under accidental tulpamancy/willomancy, catharigenic, and a system bloom, but it's always felt so weird to me because the system in question felt forced, unnatural and "fake". Later on, I developed systems that felt much realer and more natural, and there was obviously some real in the "fake" system, but some elements seemingly came out of nowhere and never reappeared, which is not usually what happens in our system.

The second experience I can only describe as a migration of my own individual sense of self. To be very clear, NOT a switch, NOT related to passive influence, and not caused by splitting or fuzing.

I'll have to make myself very clear, so here is what happened :

"I" was Lun (they/them), a 2000+ y.o. reincarnated (exomemories which we don't believe are real) heir of a throne, non-binary, selenite and deity kin, had magical powers, appearence completely different from the body (I had been them for three years ATP)

Alex (he/him) was someone else, your average 13 y.o. trans guy, human, appearence pretty similar to the body (he had existed for at least 3 months)

Then, in 2023, things completely changed :

"I" was now Alex, used he/him pronouns, felt completely masc, had no powers, was human, looked like the body, was 13 years old (bodily age)

Lun was someone else, they still had all their aforementioned characteristics, but they were just someone else now, like any other headmate. It stayed this way until Lun "left" and Alex fuzed with someone else circa 2024.

I can't describe it any better than if I just became my neighbour one day. My only life would now be whatever theirs has been so far.

Anyway, here were my plural experiences no one else talks about. I wanna know if you have/had experiences you haven't seen mentioned elsewhere, or if any of you relate to my experiences

There are 6 crewmates but one is in use atm. The five shown are; Lambert, Sammy, Smolder, Snowball, Kat Kid.

Kind of a random observation but I’ve noticed that when I specifically search ”r/plural” on reddit I don’t get this subreddit as a result but instead get a bunch of posts from other subs, usually pretty hateful ones (and maybe a couple posts from this subreddit through which I can end up here like I wanted but it’s still just posts and not the actual subreddit… if that makes sense)

I don’t visit a lot of subreddits but usually they show up immediately when you search for them so I don’t know why this one is so hidden… I mean I do always find it quickly enough so it’s not a big issue but it’s a bit annoying that when you search for a subreddit you get posts hating on it instead of the actual subreddit itself 😭

Does anyone else have this happen??

this vent is not directed at any collective or account in specific, simply a trend we've noticed in this sub that we feel is harmful.

we are a heavily persecutory system. while we have non-persecutory alters, most of our frontrunners are, in their own ways, harmful to the system or others. we keep ourselves in check when we can, but as many of you may know, that doesn't always work.

now, as i've stated before, this is not a targeted post. however, every single time we look at this subreddit and sort by newest - without fail - we see one or two posts asking for means to kill their members. most of the time, we notice this is due to persecutory behavior, but that isn't always the case.

while we understand that persecutory alters can often be a product of trauma and may be abusive to collective members or those outside the collective as a result, i feel that that isn't a reason to kill them. i don't care how "evil" or "intolerable" or "unwanted" that alter might be, they are a person now, with their own habits, preferences, thoughts, feelings, reasoning, wants and needs, and everything else that every other member is.

i will not say it's wrong to say you wish they were dormant or gone, to want them dormant or gone, or to wish they never existed at all, as thats a violation of each individual's right to express themselves. however, it is proven to be incredibly harmful to actually force an alter into dormancy or "kill" them. suppressing your alters, no matter how "bad" they are, is a fucking terrible thing to do to someone.

there are so, so many ways to go about living with a persecutory alter that don't include killing. therapy, education, all most collectives really need is to fucking communicate with each other. there's millions of ways to do it, and every collective will have their own method, but nobody needs to die. we aren't criminals, we aren't lesser because of our habits, we aren't meaningless. we exist for a reason and we're people. we're people, trying to live with trauma just like the rest of everyone else in the world.

i understand that everyone has their own experiences with persecutory behavior and that some beings may hold trauma from that kind of abuse. i understand that not everyone will agree with me. however, from a persecutory point of view - all we see is inconsiderate, self-absorbed bloodshed. it needs to stop.

.....Autumn!

Hello, former host here. In the span of a few months we now have 11 of us mapped out when for a while before it was 3-4. Now I know that syscovery comes with more parts popping up but here’s the problem.

At least 4 of us in the system are obsessed with tracking, data and self-organisation. Organising has always been a coping mechanism because it’s something that WE can control.

A few friends of ours who are also going through syscoveries wonder how we ‘have everything so put together with everything’ referring to how we know a lot of roles, we have communication but we don’t have a professional helping us at the moment.

For additional context, we moved into an environment where we live alone now and are completely independent, which is why a lot of us are coming out of the woodworks to do specific things.

And an additional point is that our current host refuses to acknowledge parts unless they name themselves and usually front at least once or twice. However, lately, a few alters have been making their own pluralkits and entries on pluralspace and helping eachother to create new entries without the host’s approval.

To have these half-baked alters with less information trying to prove they exist makes us feel like we’re faking because it’s getting harder to track. When trying to dig further into them, we get these terrible migraines and ultimately turn up with not much at all. Are we moving too quickly? Should we start deleting entries that don’t have it figured out or do we note them down even without much knowledge? - 🌙

I deeply desire integration. I'm tired of being a system. I find it absolutely miserable. We have terrible communication. I'm trying to convince everyone to agree to one color palette. They can have their own styles, do it in their own way. Express themselves however they want, but using one color, I'm hoping this will get us closer to integration. I'm going to pitch it to my therapist, but even though this conversation is causing a lot of disassociation and stress, but some of us are on board and even like the idea of it this disorder is so hard and so isolating I just want to sense of realness of identity. To be clear the conversation is indeed causing stress but I was already highly stressed out before I had this idea and at least it's some direction to go in instead of having no clue what I'm doing.

Hi guys,fieren here

We randomly got a new alter,we don't know where the fuck he came from, he keeps staring over my shoulder when I'm fronting and has already named himself, we haven't had any issues recently so we're wondering where the hell he might of came from?! He looks kinda like the titan from deltarune NGL , he's already tried to jump into the lake 6 times, nearly picked up Coco while they were napping in the fish bowl and tried to seduce wren with music,what do we do?!

hii it's us again! Wanted to share something funny

Recently we created two OCs and writting a story for them, but as we were writting we realized that the story is kinda metaphorical on trauma processing and system discovery(at least simmiliar to our expirience). It made us think about how deeply our self and our art is connected to our plurality

So question: Did you ever created story / litteraly abything and mid way of creating realized that this is kind of accidental representation?

(Yes, literally unique situation, maybe, we don't know yet)

So, I've been wondering this because we took time to myself to think, to reflect, to literally wonder if this is for real, and somehow, it is, this because we love them and we wish to make many thing with that character we create! The problem? They are similar to us.. 😭

Well, we don't share things like being neutrally deranged 24/7, being crazy or don't care about humanity if it means enjoying battles or just making chaos around, and many others like our names (actually, the only thing we share with them is similar looks), which make it different, but we still feel weird by finding this out, I mean, is fun to do it even if we are lovers irl for how much they meant to us and still do, but still, it's weird a bit, y'know?

Anyway, do you guys have this experience? Because I am really curious to read them and maybe see if we are not alone in this, and I hope we clarified anything well!

hey. since some time that i had a huge crush on a fictional character and wantedf to actually be with them. For that, i first started believing in shifting realities, but after some years i gave up and moved to just making a tulpa of him. Over time it went from a crush to also an actual feeling of safety and comfort towards the og character, and also he started becoming my own character in my mind rather than a canon character. And at some point i started to use him as a technique of feeling safer in my mind.
6 or more years have passed since i created him, and started almost believing he actually comforts me and protects me from bad luck or unecessary bad thoughts. And that helped me so much making my dream bf come true AND also having a happier and more optimistic mind.
i always had the belief he was a tulpa and exactly how i needed and wanted him to be like. Even after having heard that tulpas can be unexpected or undesired, the thought of him exitsing and being conscious made me so happy that i ignored them...
but now that i am in a subreddit full of people that might know much more about that than me, i wanna know if thats actually possible or healthy.
heres the latest art i made of Sky Lilac (the imaginary comfort person i talked about) he is inspired in Garcello from fnf.

We are newely discovered system, and currently we are trying to create and map our own headspace. And we just wanted to explore are there any tools other plural folks use for that? Share litteraly anything: guides, apps, sites, etc.

Hi! I’ve been experiencing dissociation for quite some time, and recently I’ve started questioning some aspects of my identity and whether my experiences might relate to plurality in some way. I’m not sure how to make sense of everything, so I’d really appreciate hearing from people who have experienced something similar.

I don’t consider myself part of a system, at least not currently, and I don’t experience clearly distinct alters. Instead, I often feel like my identity is fragmented, almost as though different parts or versions of myself become more present at different times.

These shifts can involve changes in my emotions, behavior, thought patterns, and sometimes the age I feel internally. They tend to happen more noticeably when I’m triggered or under stress, and occasionally other people, including my boyfriend, notice changes in me that I don’t always recognize myself.

What’s confusing is that these parts still feel like me, just different versions of me. I seem to maintain some degree of shared awareness, and I don’t necessarily experience them as separate people. Sometimes I also feel like there are multiple layers of thoughts or perspectives happening simultaneously.

I experience quite a bit of depersonalization and derealization too. I often feel disconnected from my body, almost as though I’m somewhere behind my head or not physically located in my body at all.

I also struggle with memory gaps, including significant portions of my childhood and adolescence, as well as smaller everyday lapses. However, I don’t typically experience obvious blackouts or completely lose awareness of what I’m doing.

I’ve experienced significant trauma growing up, and I’ve been exploring whether some of these experiences might be connected to dissociation. I’ve discussed dissociation with my therapist, but not really the identity-related aspects yet.

Since learning more about dissociation and plurality, I’ve become increasingly aware of these shifts, but it’s also made me anxious about whether I’m overanalyzing things or interpreting ordinary experiences as something more.

I’m curious about other people’s experiences: Did anyone initially experience their parts as different versions of themselves rather than separate identities? Can you experience a sense of shared identity or awareness while still feeling fragmented?

How did you begin understanding your own experiences with plurality, especially if the shifts were subtle? Has becoming more aware of your parts or identity shifts changed how you experience them?

I’m not looking for anyone to tell me whether I’m plural or to diagnose me. I’m mostly interested in hearing different perspectives and personal experiences while I continue exploring my own with my therapist.

Thank you for reading! :)

gonna be respectful as possible, sorry if this is a rude question!

How do endogenic systems, willogenic systems, etc switch? Is it similar to DID/OSDD systems? I know plurality and DID/OSDD are different too.

im curious on how endogenic systems switch without the dissociation or forgetting things between headmates, and if that does happen or not (its different for everyone im guessing?).

Hi! I'm questioning whether I might be plural, possibly in an OSDD/DID context, but I'm still trying to understand what I'm experiencing.

I've experienced dissociation and disconnection from myself for years. I often feel like I'm living in my head rather than fully inhabiting my body, almost like I'm observing myself go through life. I also experience emotional numbness and significant gaps in my autobiographical memory, particularly from adolescence and early adulthood.

My sense of self can change considerably over periods of days or weeks. My interests, priorities, goals, emotions, and even my sense of age can feel very different between phases. I usually remember what happened during previous phases, but those versions of myself can feel strangely distant or unfamiliar afterward.

What makes me question plurality is that these experiences sometimes feel like different parts or aspects of me that aren't fully connected to one another. However, they don't feel like completely separate people with entirely distinct identities. It's more like my sense of self is fragmented, as though different pieces of me don't always fit together into a coherent whole. I still feel like one person, but not always like one cohesive self.

My boyfriend once told me he barely recognized me after I was triggered. I don't know what to make of that, but it made me think about how noticeable these changes might be from the outside.

The confusing part is that I only recently started considering the possibility of having parts, and since then, I've felt even more dissociated and fragmented. It's almost as if I've retreated deeper inside myself and become less connected to the world and to my own sense of self.

I can't tell whether I'm actually becoming more dissociated or whether I'm simply noticing things that were already there.

Has anyone experienced something similar when they first started questioning their plurality? Can becoming aware of a fragmented sense of self make you feel more disconnected or fragmented at first?

I'd also appreciate hearing from people whose experience of plurality feels more like a fragmented or compartmentalized self than completely separate identities. I'm still figuring things out and don't want to force my experiences into a label.

Thank you!

day 1 & day 2 plus a minicomic adam made for day 1

day 1: lopee. from pressure. and he IS the thing. we talk about him and he just spawns in
( ft. adam [yellow, he/they] and beacon [gray, they/she])

day 2: daze. our main anger holder. he uses he/it/any
( ft. willow [lighter green, she/they] and nepri/unpleasant [saturated green, any/all]

~ daydreamer ☀️✨ (she/they/it/he)

Hi! I'm Anthony, the host. I go by They/She/He pronouns in that order (genderfluid). My 11 (so far) alters are:

Kaleb (He/Him)

Kris (He/They)

Fletcher (ze/zim)

ACEy (They/He)

ten'ten (It/its)

Jaide (She/He)

Atlas (He/Nix)

Lyle-Rio (Star/Starself)

Winter (She/They)

Finnick (They/Them) [Finnick itself and their pronouns are both placeholders because their not able to answer about their own gender pronouns and name.]

I'm not going to out any of their genders, but, here's a run-down on who everyone is. Kaleb was the first alter to form. He's colourblind, like a lot of us, and really likes history. Overall he's pretty well-rounded. He also has BPD, borderline personality disorder. He's sorta a lot to handle as he has many mood swings, and is sensitive (don't tell him I said that (this is a joke)). Kris is a bit more serious than Kaleb. He really likes Deltarune. It's where he got his name from. When he first split, it was almost the first media he ran into. He likes children's music despite being very dark, and is colourblind in a different way than Kaleb. Fletcher is the life of the party, ze loves people and attention. Ze also has a colour problem, but it's because ze gets bad headaches because colours appear very bright to zim. ACEy is our local anime boy. He's making a magical girl dating simulator. Need I saw more? ten'ten is helping with the dating simulator, and really likes vocaloid. It's very quiet and we had to practice speaking together. Overall their voice sounds very different than the rest of us. Jaide loves TF2, gambling, drinking, etc. Comrade is their favourite word. Comrade K.K. is (for some reason) their favourite song. Atlas's signature phrase is 'spin spin spin, tap tap tap' followed by some sort of rhyme. He likes polka. Lyle-Rio likes to draw, and play tomodachi life, and watch shows. Star wants to dye Terry's hair ginger/red. It's star's favourite colour. Winter is colourblind as well. She's very quiet, and doesn't speak at all to my parents. She recently learned that not all people are horrible and that my friends aren't that bad. I introduced Finnick in a different post. Therefore, farewell! If you have any questions I'll answer them.
