I don’t know how to identify my system. While on one hand I am not diagnosed with DID and OSDD, I can’t deny the existence of my bonds. I labeled myself as a bond system in order to stress that I was not DID, and I was attacked for it and told I wasn’t allowed to use the word system because I wasn’t DID, even though my bonds came about as a result of years of emotional and verbal ab*se. I don’t know what to do, and it seems I am caught between deny the existence of my bonds and throwing a fit…

Just ignore the people who try to deny you exist and that your experiences are real. A wise anon once told me this: Don’t fall…

Factkin anon again, thank you for your help! My fiance is my mirror system, but I haven’t told them that I’m factkin, as I’m pretty ashamed of it. My biggest issue with soulbonding with the person I miss is that I couldn’t bear to keep him a secret from my fiance. They wouldn’t judge me, and in fact know I’m factkin but not with who, but I’m so uncomfortable with myself that I believe my partner wouldn’t accept it either.

Hey anon. I understand how self conscious you are about this whole thing. Its a shitty situation to be in. I think what you need…

Hey uh, this is the factkin anon. I usually handle missing someone by bringing them here as a soulbond, as I also have fictotypes. But uh… I’m in my factotype shift and I wouldn’t be at all comfortable having the person I miss in my system. But I miss him so bad it physically hurts, and I don’t know what to do about it. Inducing other shifts is difficult for me and I don’t trust my system members not to blab about why I’m upset if I have one front. They’re good people, I’m just a bit paranoid.

That sounds like a really complicated situation, anon. I’m not sure what advice to give you here. Missing people is really, really hard. But its…

I have one character that I am kin with, and I also have a synpath. But lately I’ve been feeling shifts for the synpath, particularly the urge to talk like them. This feels a bit odd, since he’s VERY different from both me and my kintype. Not unpleasant, just odd. And I was wondering what this means. I still don’t feel like I am him. But lately he’s been talking through me more than normal. What exactly could this mean? And should he be handled any differently than my kintype?

That;s very interesting, anon. I don’t really have an experience with synpath shifts. Maybe someone else who has can answer your question better? However, your…

idk if this is the right place to go to for something like this but I just started following this brand new blog that catalogs kin networks (networkcatalog). the problem is they’re getting harassed really hard by factkin and personakin right now and I’m scared because I think they’re low on spoons that they’ll do something bad to themself. could you and your followers send them some love maybe?

I don’t normally post these kinds of things, but harassment fucking pisses me off.  If there’s anybody who wants to send @networkcatalog their warmth and…
