I wonder if multianon has any sources that can prove that being a singlet is inherently healthy. Probably not, since healthiness in singlets is something implied. I don’t know why it’s suddenly so unbelievable in the context of multiple systems that they wouldn’t have clinically significant distress as a result of being multiple (which according to the DSM 5 is the key defining factor of what makes someone disordered in the first place).

Good point!

@anon, check Dr Samuel Vessiere’s tulpa studies. Which you’d have seen if you looked up the cited reddit FFS

Anon, here’s a source!

@ anon talking about you essentially saying “I know I’m a system and then therefore I am a system”: Wow. It’s almost like, you know, that that’s /the criteria for being a system/

Seriously, I don’t know what else they’re looking for.

@ anon: Good gravy please shush yourself. You cannot speak for the experiences of other people, whether or not you have a textbook, a degree, or even the disorder yourself. Everybody is different, and these people are hurting no one

That anon doesn’t know when to quit.

i haven’t been trying to apply the standards of a disorder, i’m trying to tell you that being multiple is inherently dissociative, so if you’re not dissociating, how are you multiple? maybe try answering with an actual answer this time, instead of “i know i’m a system, and therefore i am a system.”

Anon, anon, that’s applying the standards of a disorder. Helloooooo *knocks on your head*

fully sourced to reputable sites, and with an actual explanation to how natural multiplicity can happen.

In other words you are discounting the experiences of actual natural multiples in favor of the word of gatekeeping authorities who are only looking at…

if you really have credible sources, i’d love to see them.

What would you judge credible, anon?

just because we haven’t worked out everything about the brain doesn’t mean that we know nothing. also @ the other anon, i’m aware of the ableism in the psychiatric field, but that doesn’t make all psychiatry completely incorrect. also note that modern psychology is based on decades of research and studies. while we have hundreds of books and reports on the topic, what do you have? a couple of teenagers on the internet claiming to know better than people who have spent years studying?

I’m 30, anon. And I’ve been consciously multiple for half my lifetime. Most of the people in the multiplicity communities I’ve been a part of…
