Here is my proper #introduction post since I'll now be here full time!!

✨Who are we?✨

💜DID System of ~26 (we're still learning everyone)

💜They/Them

💜Aromantic asexual (changes based on headmate)

💜Neurodivergent

💜Fibromyalgia

💜I love connecting with other neurospicy peeps and systems.

💜We build our headmates into our writing

💜Crochet, paint, sketch, cook, write, videogames

#KetamineTherapy is being considered by me & my #MentalHealth team. The idea is to try to reduce the level of #depression, or at least the suicidality, that's brought on by current circumstances. Normally my venlafaxine is enough, but now it's not.

I'm open to the idea. I'm only worried about one specific aspect: the potential for parts of myself to say things they normally wouldn't sober. It's part of why I rarely drink & have never used psychedelics.

I did manage to eat food both yesterday and today. I even took care of my teeth. Still mentally drained, but more grounded. The smoke detectors aren't being goofy anymore, either. #disabled #disability #NEISvoid #ChronicIllness #MentalIllness #CPTSD #DID

prev boost: have not watched crowded room but i am generally skeptical of media portraying #DID. the one whole episode i watched of moon knight was cool but also still leans into the "violent alter ego" trope that is unhelpful to the public view of DID

my ass is NOT beating the polyfrag #DID allegations

#PluralGang Do you mask as a singlet in your daily life?

@Faylen I'm sorry I'm 7 days late in replying, but I appreciate it. I'm still pretty new to Mastodon, but I like it here so far. I'll admit I miss the support group subreddits for people dealing with #trauma, #CPTSD, #DID, and the like I used to frequent on #reddit, though. I quit cold turkey after their recent AMA fiasco. It's not that I miss reddit, but the people that made up those communities. Fortunately good communities grow anywhere on the internet, and this cycle isn't anything new.

The AWAKE protocol we designed to link devices with #DID & #UCAN, we're likely to switch from Double Ratchet to the now approved IETF Messaging Layer Security (MLS)

@expede pulled together some background reading and articles about MLS https://talk.fission.codes/t/understanding-mls/4933

... and resources. I love constant additional strain it puts on my #parts in my system. Holy fuck is it challenging to stay grounded sometimes. But I have to cope, do basic life things, and keep up #selfcare so I don't end up in crisis. Just a PITA, you know?

Who else here has #DID and #CPTSD, and is #disabled?

Just did a thing I maybe regret later I spent 70 bucks on stim toys a gymnastic ball for my back
But the stuff is just so gorgeous and I couldn’t decide because so many of us wanted something different
We are so excited and can’t wait until it arrives
We bought a weighted plushy dinosaur a pop it Puzzle and the dragon with a lot of movable parts. I don’t know how they are called.

@CrescentSays

We can definitely help with that!

I am medical #PTSD myself and I know lots of other #mentalHealth focused people are around. (if yer trawling these tags, say hello to Wren! It's #WelcomeWednesday after all).

Will boost yer toot to hopefully connect with some of the folks in my circles.

Tell me more about #DID that's not a tag I am family with.

I'm going to be honest, probably to my detriment: I don't understand plurals who claim a supernatural origin. I'm plural. I know because I've had parts of my mind I could tell weren't me since the age of 4. I have the background - victim of broad, severe abuse. It's certainly not "Spiritual"! I don't believe demons or aliens cause mental illness, so why would I think that about my neurotype? Why is it radical to claim that my identity is not open for appropriation, fantasy, or fad?

#Introduction I've been here for a while, but just realized I didn't pin my intro, so I'm here, writing a new one. I'm Wren, a 25 year old nonbinary human. I have multiple disabilities including #blind #DID #ActuallyAutistic #Anxiety #Depression #ADHD #CPTSD and #ChronicPain. I'm here to explore and find a community that I fit into. I came over from twitter in November, and have liked it here so far. Please reach out if you have any question at all. #AskNotAssume

My system is really acting up of late. We're working to integrate a previously dissociated part into our family, but it's uphill and they're giving us a lot of time skips and amnesia.

The other day I attended an online open mic and after my read I said, "Thank you for having me for my first reading!", and they said, "You were here last month...".

That awkward moment when one of your alters attended a mic and hid it from the rest of you for four weeks. *sigh*

#DID #neurodivergent #CPTSD

I had couples therapy today and it went well, but it was a hard session; draining. After lunch, I vaped a small bowl of mostly CBD/CBG with a bit of THC. Now all I can think about is why? Why is my husband so nice to me? I should feel grateful and lean into it but I’m terrified. #PTSD is weird, man. #DID is weird. So many layers to sort through. I’ve been in therapy for almost 20 years, but *helpful* therapy for only two. It feels never ending.

@SchizoScientist for another perspective, in 2016, I was seeing an experienced DBT therapist, diagnosed with BPD and had a medical marijuana card for a pain issue. I was symptomatic and was told it was psychosis from the cannabis. A couple years later, I was referred to a trauma center by Yale IOP and diagnosed with #PTSD and #DID. Now I have my #MedicalMarijuana card back for PTSD, feel heard, seen and understood and am doing much better!

This is my #Introduction post. I’ve decided to make my home here among people like me. I’ve been #Disabled and on #SSDI since 2003. A couple years back, I got my proper dx of #PTSD (#cptsd, really) and #DID so at least I know why I am the way I am. The DID has made my life interesting and I’m still doing intensive trauma work in therapy to figure it out. #ComplexTrauma is no joke. I also like my #Cats, #RedSox, #NJDevils, #ToriAmos, #Tech, #Reddit and #MedicalMarijuana, among other things.
