Plural Acceptance Week!
It's Plural Acceptance Week!
We are a large mixed-origin nonhuman multiple system that goes by House of Chimeras.
We received a diagnosis of DDNOS from our 1st therapist in 2010. When the DSM-5 came out our 2nd therapist reassessed us & found we did not meet all criteria for DID or OSDD with the DSM-5 (though we once did). While every mental health professional we've seen since has acknowledged our plurality, we've never been rediagnosed.
Our plurality is caused by several factors. In brief: we believe were born already predisposed toward multiplicity due to neurodivergence, were born with more than one soul, had trauma that directly messed with our identity development, various negative childhood events pushed us to maladaptive daydreaming which lead to the creation of tulpas/thoughtforms, & an animistic predispositions leading to spirit possession.
We' accepted our plurality in 2009/2010 & have been in the community ever since across many platforms.
Being plural is just who we are & how we exist. We're a we & we're here to stay.
