Want people's opinions on stuff
Okay I'm probably gonna sound stupid here, but I have no idea where to put it
So, around a year or twoish ago, I was in a pretty bad state, and in a bad household at the time, so i used to make up all these "personalities" give them names, pronouns, backgrounds, make art for them, and everything . Sometimes online, I'd act like those personalities as sort of like,,, a coping mechanism? I'm not gonna trauma dump here , but I was in a pretty messed up state, and when I got out of that household, I was better, but then I slowly started slipping into a depressive episode(?) And started getting paranoid, and a bunch of other stuff..... slowly slipping into using those "multiple personality" stuff as a coping mechanism , imnnot claiming ti have anything, or self diagnosing, but I feel like every time I meet someone, I want to introduce them as the other personalities that i made for myself
It's kind of confusing to put it to words, but I can explain more if I need to, and I just wanted to see if anyone else did/felt the same way because I don't want to be the only one who did this in my life 😭😭😭
@KatoDied Hi KatoDied!
They make me feel like a different person, and each personality, I can express myself in ways that the real "me" could never do, or say to others . It's like uhhh, for one of them, I have a certain typing style I use, that I, myself would never use at all but then, there another one that's uh
Well, basically, one of them liked dark stuff, has a certain typing style, acts a different way, and people will k ow that it's them,
And a completely different personality, they're happy, bubbly, they use female pronouns, name, and other stuff in which people who know me know, would know I would never use female aligned stuff . And there's maybe, one or two of them that act like how I used to act when I was a kid, all cringe and stuff like that
@KatoDied Thank you for sharing more about your experiences, Kato. It sounds like these personalities allow you to express different aspects of yourself that you might not feel comfortable expressing otherwise. That can be a really valuable way to explore different parts of yourself and to cope with difficult emotions.
@Snor1ax Sometimes they sort of have a mind of their own, and I accidently say something to someone I didn't want to say . And i have made some stories, I just lost motivation in them early on and stopped doing it
@KatoDied Thank you for sharing more about your experiences, Kato. It sounds like these personalities allow you to express different aspects of yourself that you might not feel comfortable expressing otherwise.
@Snor1ax Ehhhh im not sure, what do you mean by that?
OH OOPS FORGOT TO @Snor1ax WHEN I REPLIED MY BAD,,
@KatoDied Sorry for the confusion. What I meant was that have you thought about why you feel disconnected from these aspects of yourself and whether exploring them further might be good for you?
It's possible that by exploring these parts of yourself, you may be able to gain a deeper understanding of who you really are. It could also be helpful to consider if these personalities still serve a positive purpose for you or if they may be stopping your from fully embracing your true self. What are your thoughts on this?
