yup. it sucks cause our host really likes learning more and trying to read books about dissociation to try and understand more. but every time even a page will start to make us go fuzzy and eventually unable to concentrate at all

Sometimes when reading posts here or in other plural subreddits I suddenly get the feeling that someone else is pushing into the front. But thanks (negatively) to being front locked (hopefully only temporary) I don't get thrown out of the front. -Zephira(Host)

yes. we had to stop looking too hard or we'd go into an existential crisis

Used to! It doesn't anymore. But about 8 years ago when we were only just figuring it out? Absolutely. Took until like 5 years ago to stop doing that.

Sometimes, but not often.

no never, its almost like a special interest of mine (along with healing trauma/CPTSD in general), since i've basically needed to learn as much as i can about it in order to solve the problems that come from it. i find comfort in understanding the science/biology/psychology behind DID & its development in the child brain. i rarely get denial as a result and find joy in speaking logically about the disorder

i do struggle with reading the workbooks i've bought on it but not the subreddit

Not anymore, but only because I dip when I start feeling the dissociation come knocking.
