Do you know of some sort of way/tutorial out there to access one’s headspace? I’m having some trouble.

Depends on what you mean by ‘access your headspace’. Do you mean get in contact with other entities that may/might be able to share your mind?…

Any information about median systems?

Medians, at least when I last heard the term, are people who don’t comfortable fit either as multiples or singlets. Being median is a sort…

Actually some people with DID think as their alter as people, especially the ones against integration, since they developed normally since childhood they think it’s a personality of their own. Some trauma based systems use the language of healthy multiplicity too.

Absolutely true. I was much more free about mixing my terminology until lately when I have been hearing from DID systems who want to keep…

hello! i’ve checked your faq but i’m so new and v. confused, so i thought i’d just ask. i understand what the term headmate is used for in regards to this community, but i am confused if its supposed to be completely different from what a person with dissociative identity disorder means when talking about their headmates, or if they mean the same and meant for people w DID but alters that are similar to fic characters? sometimes some say anyone can develop headmates but thats not how DID works?

First of all, just to clear things up, headmates have nothing to do with fictionkin or otherkin. Headmate as a term came about to describe…

Can you explain the difference between gateway systems and soulbonders? Is people gaining someone else’s soulbond a thing that’s possible?

The answer is its a bit of a blurry line. Lets see if I can rattle out some of the differences and such. Soulbonders specifically…

What do you think of the terms animafidem and cerebrumalius? Do you think they’re needed or? Bc I’ve seen a few ppl get upset by them.

I’m never against new terms. No one has to use them, but I think more words are more useful than fewer words.

if you were to ever make a new survey, it’d probably have to be passed around privately so that rolls can’t get a hold of it. it keeps out people that aren’t fully active in the community, sadly, but it’s kind of a necessary evil with how many trolls are around.

Eh, that’s why forums are better for internal polls than tumblr is. tumblr is a very public community. Its impossible to keep things private here.

is it strange/bad that, even though i was a character in a past life, in my current state i feel a deep connection with his father? as in – although i was that person, if i had to pick one who’s me now, i would probably pick his dad. i don’t have memories or anything as his dad – i just relate to him.

I don’t think its bad? After all, if you’re this character, then his father is your father. Its not unusual to feel a deep connection…

Is sweeneykin a troll? They’ve only made one real post so far, and it feels like it.

@sweeneykin appears to be a troll. If they are not a troll, they are a very rude kin.

A long time ago you touched on the topic of “fictional others” when an anon brought it up. What do you think of people who have multiple fictional others? I’ve found a friend who’s familiar with the concept and she has like, five. She IS polyamorous, but do you think that’s questionable? I’m not quite sure what I think yet. I’m still new to the concept, haha.

By fictional others, I gather that you mean romantic interactions with fictives/soulbonds/headmates. My personal feelings are that there is nothing wrong with having these relationships…
