hey i have OSDD-1 and i think you might have just misinterpreted things said by blogs like this-is-not-dissociative? the first alters always form in childhood, but you can absolutely form new alters later in life if new trauma occurs. i’ve never seen a DID/OSDD blog say otherwise, it’s pretty widely accepted. also, some systems are ok with the term “fictives” rather than “fictional introjects” – it just depends on the person. just a heads up

Systems may be ‘fine’ with the term ‘fictive’ but its not a DID/OSDD term. The medical term is ‘fictional introjects’. I clarify this because I have had DID/OSDD…

Heads up, there’s this user, tucuteforyouuwu, in the fictionkin, otherkin, and therian tags saying misinformation. So far it’s only one post, but there could soon be more. I’m pretty sure they’re either a troll, or they somewhat genuinely believe what they’re saying but are exaggerating to get reactions. Here’s the post number on their blog that I’m talking about: /post/145182082816/ (I’m telling you this because you sometimes warn about trolls in the tags)

For those curious, the post in question reads: friendly reminder that – u cant b otherkin/therian if u r white, u can only b fictionkin…
