TW medical trauma, long post

poem i wrote about something i didn’t think was affecting me anymore until i was crying uncontrollably

i saw an episode of a medical drama

a doctor refused to strap down or sedate a patient because they were scared

they talked them through it until it wasn’t scary anymore

what is that like? to have someone care enough to wait until you’re ready, to refuse to lay a hand on you until you weren’t scared anymore

to have someone listen when you scream

why couldn’t i have that? how can you hear someone shout and scream for you to stop and keep pushing? how can you look a crying child in the eye as you hold them against their will? how could they do that to me?

i guess i didn’t fully comprehend how bad it was until i saw how good it could have been

since when did paperwork override consent? since when can you ignore the screams of a terrified child?

i can’t lay down if someone’s standing over me

i can’t turn my back to people

i can’t remember their faces, but i’ll never escape the feeling of their hands on my chest, my arms, my legs

how could they do that to me?

i think i know how

i wasn’t a child to them

i was a number

just a job to do, a box to check

my kicking and screaming nothing more than an obstacle to be ignored

not a person, not a child

an object

there’s more than one way to be violated

Hey Guys!

I wanted to put this here because it’s important.

This is a Trans/Nonbinary friendly blog. Anyone of the LGBT+ community is welcome and we don’t stand racism or homophobia in anyway. If anyone ever tries to bullying anyone *cracks fingers* we will have problems.

This blog is a safe safe for everyone, including myself. I wanted to draw that line in the dirt. Racists and terfs aren’t allowed here.

🏳️‍🌈This blog supports all sexual orientations and gender identities

Reblog if yours does too.

I have a shamelessly long list of men i need this from 🌚 some them are fictional

Need a tall man to hold my face and squeeze my cheeks with one hand and make me look up at him. That’s all.

STAY SAFE!! [ID: the Gilbert Baker pride flag with the words “Happy pride to all those who are unable to celebrate openly and safely. You are loved and seen!” in all-caps black text over it. /end ID]

reblog this if you’re jewish or your blog is a safe space for jewish people

in light of recent events as well as a new rise in creating nazi ocs I think this post is an important one to have on your blog if you stand behind your jewish followers or are jewish yourself.

Hi, hope these sort of asks are okay but I just seen something about language? So aaa sorry for the ramble! We feel the need to explain:

I think we may be a P-DID/OSDD-1A system but I feel like we still have a sort of introject based on real/fictional people. Which is it possible? I heard the term for -1a and p-DID systems it’s like “facets” or “fabelings” but idk, I know that both myself and two others in our little space took on identities that brought us more comfort than “Sad Kevin.” “work Kevin”, etc sort of thing. I personally feel I am Dr. Iceberg, I have pseudomemories and just I know a take on an “adult” “work sort of deal.

Time to over explain! but We’re usually always very blurry sometimes sharing this metaphysical steering wheel or someone’s being a sort of backseat driver (car analogy is how we explain our experience). Our memories aren’t good and our host/main person (idk terms) he said he usually feels like he’s watching everything in a dream like state. If that makes sense. :p just, is it possible for us as osdd-1a to have introjects based on others? I feel like others will call us out for “faking.” Or worse :(( we do plan to talk to a therapist when we have the funds and feel safe in doing so but you seem very knowledgeable and safer to ask. /gen.

Hello there! I think you may have gotten the term mixed up a little bit. You can use whatever is most comfortable for you, but Facets is a term more commonly used for median systems rather than multiple systems.

Regardless, yes, it is entirely possible to have introjects in a P-DID/OSDD-1A system. We know lots of those types of systems with introjects! As far as Im concerned, most every type of system can have introjects if they feel thats what they are.

I know there are cases of a brainmade alter 'becoming' an introject, its a little hard to explain, but my personal understanding of it is this happens either through fusing with fragments, or kinning becoming something a little more personal to that headmate.

The car analogy is a great way to decribe your experiences! If you want to know some terms for those, fronting is when a headmate is in control of the body, co-fronting is kind of a secondary to that, and then co-consious is when your sort of watching, but may still be able to do things like type or speak with the body to communicate. Theres also passive influence, which is when said alter is not aware of whats going on in front, but may still affect what happens.

It made us really happy that yall trust us enough to ask about this stuff, even just on anon. I hope this helps! And dont listen to anyone that tries to fakeclaim you. I hate fakeclaimers, so much. Yall know whats going on with yallselves the best. Stay safe out there anon.

Feel free to come to our inbox again, or dms if yall are comfortable. And this goes for everyone, we love talking about this kind of stuff and answering it. :]

hey btw there’s nothing wrong with shipping your ocs with canon characters. or shipping yourself with a canon character. even if you have a crush on the character. you are hurting literally no one. you can do whatever you want. cringe culture is dead

edit: proshippers this post is not for you. go away

Just a small rant. School. My Major that I’m taking is so predominantly chemistry and I’m not a Chemistry major/minor. I have to take 5 different chemistry classes, all of which have a lab require with them which makes it 10 classes I have to get done to graduate.

Let me just say, that ain’t happening and I’m going to be here for 8 years at this rate for a Bachelors degree. Chemistry just does not click in my brain, I hate it, half the stuff I’m learning and I’m going to learn don’t even apply to what I’m going to do career wise. Believe me, I understand how important chemistry is for the world in general, but I’m not going to be working with chemicals. The most I might be doing is looking through a microscope to look at blood and that’s it.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m grateful I can even still go to school, but I don’t want to waste my time on doing my GE’s, doing other sciences that aren’t related to my field. Give me my Major classes, teach me how to get my foot in the door of my career, and get me out of school. I’m not trying to worry about if I’m not going to graduate on time just because of almost failing classes that I have no interest in, like Political Science. (No offense to anyone with a passion for politics, it’s just not my interest.)

I say small rant because I could go on about this for hours. I could probably write an essay about this and still not feel any lighter, but I really want this career, so I just have to push through it. Doesn’t mean I can’t complain about it along the way though.

Hai and best of wishes for the finals you're gonna do great and I too am going through my final exams so🤝🏼✍ good luck to both of us

I’m so not ready for finals at all, but I’m trying to fake it till I make it. Whatever happens, happens. I’m sure you’ll do outstanding on your finals if you haven’t already done them. Good luck, and also good luck to anyone else who has their finals too.

I can’t wait for summer to start so I can actually draw more often.

Just had my last finals today and now I have to pack everything in my dorm so I can drive home tomorrow, but I’m so mentally overstimulated that I can’t even get myself out of bed.

Needless to say I’m thoroughly disappointed in myself and I’m fully prepared to have to retake 3 of my classes. I don’t even have to wait for the final grades to be posted because I just know.

Anyway, hope you’re all having a good day. Summer time, yay. 2 online classes and trying to hunt for internships. Fun.
