Unfortunately sometimes i find someone with a good art, its innocent from all crimes, posts frequently, but shipp something different from the shipp I like, sorry, its not you its me, i cant find pleasure with this knowledge I have now

pure love

helloo ! ive been wanting to ask if you have any specific tips or things to focus on while writing characters with DID ! im not a system myself but psychology in general has been a topic that ive always been interested in and want to depict it to the best of my ability + i love your art and wish you the best ^^

Good question!

Writing about DID/OSDD is incredibly difficult- even I a system probably couldn’t do it, but I can give you some advice regardless. Obviously saying “research” is expected, but finding good research on it is hard. As always I recommend as a starter for understanding the fundamentals of the disorder : “The Haunted Self: Structural Dissociation and Treatment of Chronic Traumatization” just look that up and I’m sure you can find it on the internet archive or docdriod. As a rule of thumb don’t trust system tiktok, tumblr, carrds, or any personal account to get the majority of your information from just because there’s an incredible amount of misinformation (of course there’s plenty others on there who probably know what they are talking about, but I’d always recommend using credible peer reviewed sources.)

With the research disclaimer thing out of the way here’s a few points:

-It’s a trauma based disorder, everything is structured around trauma. Not just a singular trauma but repeated emotional, physical, and typically sexual trauma that is experienced under the age of 10 (You don’t need all three, just a lot of systems experience a mix of trauma) To write DID/OSDD right you should be able to write child traumatization accurately and be comfortable with writing it.

-There is a vast amount of different experiences with DID/OSDD. There are varying levels of amnesia, alter presentations, system structures etc. not all systems use plural terms, have names for alters, or have much personality differentiation between alters. The experience of a Osdd1a system will be different to a DID system, so you’d probably want to look into the specifics of those differences and stick to one type of system.

-Try to avoid misconceptions and DID tropes in media. The most obvious one I can think of is “the evil alter” trope, there’s quite a lot of demonization of the disorder so you have to be critical when viewing media depicting it (fuck the split movie).

-unless it’s apart of a character arc avoid the uncritical idea that alters are just their source. it’s healthy for them to branch out and expand from their baseline purpose and identity.

As for things I’d like to see in DID/OSDD rep it’d be:

-representing extreme denial

-loss of time

-source separation would be cool

-fusion and dormancy being mentioned

A lot of media hyper focuses on Alters when that is only one aspect of system hood. I think I’d be cool to look at the other symptoms.

But overall, it would be a really hard task to write a system especially without being one. I’m not saying it’s impossible but it’s easy to fall into misrepresentation even if it’s well meaning (it’s easy to do that even if a person is a system, that’s why I’m too scared to write it) If you are going to do it, do a very thorough amount of research before you develop an idea of a character. I know I sound really upset at the idea, I’m not I do really like the idea of representation- but DID/OSDD is such a stigmatized disorder that you have to be so so so careful not to add onto the stigma. I do believe it’s possible to do it right though! I wish you luck and thank you for the compliment.

Hey so

Completing the theory of Rio don't knowing what was happening until the kiss bettwen her and Agatha ended. That means Agatha knew what meant receving a kiss from death, meant they never truly kissed before, and she was ready to die right on the road until Rio stopped her

Or idk they are two halfs of one crazy person

Thats cute, thanks quiz

Post your favourite person/character anything that you're obsessed over right now and do this quiz :)

I want to take this post and stick on my forehead

no because ya’ll don’t get it. you guys don’t even understand the fact that peter was an asshole before ben’s death, he wanted to make money out of being spiderman. that was literally his first instinct. to deadpool’s face he’s constantly trying to make himself hate him.

he’s projecting! he’s making himself dislike deadpool because he sees himself in deadpool. he sees the parts of himself he hates in deadpool. the part of him that would had ended up just like him.

its not about the fact that deadpool kills. almost all of peter’s hero friends have killed a bunch of people throughout their years, its the mercenary business he doesnt like specifically.

he dislikes the idea of trading a human life for money no matter how bad the person was. and on TOP of all this. peter acts abrasive in front of deadpool but then turns around and speaks to someone else, out of the company of deadpool and if that person says something mean about deadpool HE THEN ACTIVELY DEFENDS DEADPOOL!! hes so weird about that man. you guys don’t understand what these comics are telling you, you’re just so adamant on saying peter hates deadpool and it doesnt make sense for him to like him due to being a merc.

I LOVE THIS CONCEPT

Error and Ink are totally transgender in a entity way yk?

They dont know the concept of gender and pronouns, in my head Ink uses any pronoun and just doesnt care, they have a lot of fun with neopronouns tho

And Error is like a cat their pronouns are pspspspspspspspspsp

i think error sans utmv is transgender but he's got a job so he doesn't really care about that rn. but also he made himself the job. like. arbitrarily. he's employing himself nobody's asking him to do anything

Lasanha azeda? 🤨

Yes? It means sour lasagna in portuguese, idk if this is what youre asking :^

You turn me inside out then you want the outside in

being aroace is genuinely so isolating at times. having character relationships discussions where romance is seen as the "highest" form of a relationship can go. how friendships are sidelined or ignored. when queerplatonic relationships are sometimes written as this "substitute" to a romantic relationship without exploring the nuance there. how it's so hard to just explore art without someone wondering if the characters are going to hook up
