If endogenic systems don’t need the same supports that traumagenic systems need (ie they don’t need specific kinds of therapy or other specific supports that systems who have experienced trauma need) how can they be taking up resources?

If endogenic systems experience no distress because of their multiplicity and their multiplicity doesn’t affect any other mental or physical condition they have, why would they seek out supports at all? If endogenic systems don’t have any trauma, why would they need trauma specialists? If endogenic systems experience no economic disadvantage because of their multiplicity, why would they need to crowdfund something?

Just because a system’s origins don’t lie in childhood trauma doesn’t mean they don’t experience distress related to their multiplicity, and just because a system’s origins do lie in childhood trauma doesn’t mean they do experience distress. I’m a traumagenic system and I don’t experience much multiplicity related distress. Most of my mental health issues come from my various other disorders. My system originally formed to deal with trauma, but I don’t actually experience multiplicity as a disorder. There are systems who have no idea why they formed who have way more multiplicity related struggle than I do.
