The Coffin

Our childhood never left us. It never had the chance to begin. And we live with that pain every day, having been robbed of innocence and of childlike freedom.

But we can create our childhood, one trauma healed and processed at a time.

1. you can't!!

2. no like seriously you can't!!

okay i hear you, i hear you! apparently the crowd has some comments about things that DEFINITELY means someone is faking so let's address them!

high part count/significant change in part count: part counts entirely are focused on your window of tolerance, of you've got a low window of tolerance odds are you are going to split from minor stress! and as you move further through recovery you'll most likely discover more and more parts you never knew existed!! (also anyone who quotes "average amount of alters" you make me barf seriously)

introjects: bleh. introjects can literally be anything even people without did introject. anyone who fakeclaims over introjects you're so dramatic plssss get a GRIP!!! it's not that deep!!

misinformation: mfers love to say that did is a complex disorder and then act shocked when someone gets something wrong. IT'S OKAY TO BE WRONG!!! we used to believe in core theory I promise you, you are going to get things wrong time and time again and you will learn!!! it's okay!!

positivity: ugh not this again. can't a mfer be joyful and whimsy while having did without getting fakeclaimed?? positivity is good and positivity doesn't mean the absence of negativity!!!! YOU ARE ALLOWED TO LOVE YOUR SYSTEM! they've done a lot for you and I promise you a little bit of positivity will do you some good! it's not healthy to lay in your own misery your entire life - this disorder is not a death sentence guys. cmon.

age: oh my god? people can find out they have a disorder formed in childhood before they are legally adult? WHO WOULD HAVE THUNK?? some people get therapy early in life, some people just find out, it happens and if it bothers you that 15 year olds have did - maybe you should take a step back?? mayhaps?

message is, you don't know what someone's been through and you don't know their symptoms just because they have a public blog on the internet. they are still a stranger! worry about yourself, worry about what you can to make yourself happy and leave people ALOOONE!!!!!!

We have a lot of compulsions relating to patterns in the flooring, for instance: tiles. And every time we step on a crack, we have to go back and step back and forth on the tiles until we feel like we've fixed our mistake. And very often, our partners are left standing there like 🧍‍♂️
