Just had a major spiral of denial which almost dysregulated the entire system.
Wanted to let every system out there dealing with a heavy wave of denial right now that you are not alone and you will get through this.
Take a breath. Drink some water. Listen to your favorite tunes.
Remember, if you have to ask, you're probably not faking.
One of the systems I watch on YouTube (the Alexandrites, check them out) had a video once saying the question of "am I faking?" might really be "am I wrong?"
I'm here to tell you it's okay if you're wrong. If you aren't a system when you thought you were, that's okay. Because if the treatment for DID or OSDD works to help you heal, then in the end, it's helpful. The world will keep turning, you'll keep on living.
And hey, you might not be either! And that's amazing too! Your system will be there to help you and pick you up; that's why they're here. Be grateful for them and all the progress you've made together.
Discovery is a journey, and you're only human.
Be gentle with yourself. Denial is natural, and denial is just another wave in this endless ocean of life.
