There’s proof that some people genuinely experience plurality or multiple identities without identifying with trauma-based disorders like DID. Researchers have documented these experiences in interviews and studies, and many plural people describe their systems as real, stable, and not caused by trauma.
But there is not solid scientific proof yet that “endogenic plurality” is a fully proven medical condition or separate diagnosis. Most current evidence is based on self-reports and community research, not brain scans or large clinical studies.
So basically: people’s experiences are real, but science still doesn’t fully understand why they happen.
The brain is a pile of pasta noodles in a vat of vitamin water that uses a nominal amount of electricity to not only tell itself what's happening, but how to respond. It's like if you had a bunch of uncovered wires in a tub of coolant running on a potato battery.
And some people think that if the wire engineers that know a miniscule amount more about why the wires don't know why the wires shock themselves a certain way, then it must be fake. Even though the wire engineers very clearly said "yeah, we saw wires do that sometimes". Even though studies show that wires do in fact do that sometimes. Even though some other people with wires say "my wires do this sometimes".
It makes me wonder where those people's wires got crossed
