Polyfragmented - Tumblr Posts
Hey systemblr, how do you differentiate extremely fragmented alters from alters who change their identity regularly depending on what media we're fixated on?
systems of all kinds that have aphantasia, here's it to you guys.
it can be hard seeing everyone talk about visualization and most advice being about visualization, when you just can't do that.
you're not broken or less of a system for that.
you're a part of the natural variation of systemhood and plurality. your experiences are just as important as anyone else.
and!! i hope your day gets better
It's important to note that 'switching' can be extremely subtle, especially with polyfragmented systems. So beating yourself up over keeping constant tabs on fronting and shit can be unneeded stress. You may feel the need to constantly know who 'you' are, who has taken control, etc. It is the voice of the devil do not fucking listen to it
It's ok if you don't always know when switches happen. It's ok if you struggle to keep track of when they happen or who with. It's difficult to always know those things, so please be kind to yourself about it.
does anyone know how to have headmates in ur system not constantly argue or have drama with eachother ??/gen
My most toxic relationship is with our brain
Like, what do you mean the brain is not ok without me? What do you mean I'm forced to front just because the brains wants even though I'm completly fucked up and I can't anymore? What do you mean the brain made more alters like me that tell me they're "another universe me" and even with them existing I'm the one who fronts?
Brain leave me fucking alone

Being a polyfrag DID system is like
"Yeah ik I'm this alter... Am I alone fronting? Who knows, maybe, maybe not, am I being influenced by other alters in front? Maybe, maybe not"
And then you forgot you say you were X alter and you continue your life as normal till someone or something reminds you you're that alter and you remember you're a system
And then doing some normal shit you became aware you're not fronting alone and you hear the other alters at front talking or they talk to you/externals so you're now like "Oh yeah... I'm not fronting alone"
Sometimes forgetting about the existing of fronting, alters and all this shit is hilarious and random, it's like the thing that most of the community talks about when talking about symptoms and it's the thing that we forget most of the time about DID lmao
It was a real roller coaster, it was a mix of a bunch of this things and similar things... It was wild because I tend to forget about it and till I accept it well I remember all those past semi-discoveries (I call them like that because I was aware of the disorder but not the system... Does that make sense??)
This is regardless of if you are self diagnosed or professionally diagnosed.
