Hey! Do you use terms for your system besides "headmate", "alter", or "facet"? This post is for you!
Shoutout to:
Systems that use the term "system member" or "sysmate"!
Those who choose "part", "piece", or "aspect"!
The ones out there who use "pluralian", "pluralment", and "pluret" are so cool!
"Ceter" is unique and lovely!
"Walk-ins" and "spirits" deserve just as much space as anyone else!
Even the ones who see their members as "personalities" are welcome here!
And anyone else who uses a non-typical system term!
We love all of you so, so much! We wish you& the best of days, no matter what you choose to call yourselves!
🖤💜💙💚💛

Hot take! anti endo rhetoric is like the whole transmed rhetoric of the 2010s Internet and it’s probably going to be treated as such few years.
Think about it before the Anthony Padilla video about DID a few years ago I don’t really think anybody cared about endogenic systems. Yes some people didn’t like them but I think most people didn’t really care about systems origins because nobody really knew or cared about systems at all after the video plurality gained quite a lot of traction more people are learning about it. More people were discovering themselves systems and as a result a lot of people develop an anti endogenic mindset because of whatever reason but that really reminds me of the transmedicalism mindset of the 2010s where it was the normal to invalidate shame transgender people who has a different identity and a different experience with transgenderness.
I believe in the next few years there will be more knowledge about plurality and people will no longer feel the need to shame and invalidate endogenic and mixed origin systems systems maybe even willowgenic systems. maybe not anytime soon but maybe in the next few years I genuinely think this is the case and it will happen

Sometimes you have to be yourself on purpose. What I mean by this is that sometimes we lose touch with ourselves and start coasting and just going through the motions. Which is fine for a while because we get tired and/or depressed and that's fine. Happens to everyone. But eventually it starts to feel bad and you get a specific kind of brainweird that's hard to describe but means that you've lost sight of who you are, what your values are, and what you love.
Leaning really hard into something that makes you go "this is the most me thing ever" helps that specific type of brainweird quite a bit! But maybe you don't know what the most you thing ever is. You are not alone! I get depressed and forget every interest I have. 100% understand that.
When this happens, it helps to remind yourself what you like and enjoy. So what do you do? Well for me, it helps to think about 1. Things I used to enjoy and 2. Things my friends Know Me For.
Like I've been feeling not myself lately and I haven't really knit or created much this month at all. But I'm the Makes Things Guy. I like making things and many of my friends not only know me as someone who makes things but a lot of my friendships specifically come from communities of People Who Make Things.
So I forced myself to pick up an old project, and that helped a bit. But what really helped was coming up with a project that combined my interests (leather jackets, art, and teapots) for me to look forward to and get really into planning for! The most ME I've felt in weeks has been the last hour I've spent planning on painting a famous fine China design on the back of my leather trenchcoat. Because not ONLY am I the Makes Things Guy, I am also The Teapot Guy. I finally feel like myself again.
I wish I had more concrete advice in regards to how you remember your own interests when you get disconnected from them, but a solid place to start is things you used to like and things your friends know you like. If you struggle consider asking a friend what things they know you like. Sometimes friends can see us better than we can see ourselves and it helps to use them as a mirror to see yourself through.
Headmate adopt/dump, I do take requests :) Also apparently I coin terms now :,)Minor safe DNI: Anti-radqueers, I'm not radqueer myself nor do I agree with every belief they have but I do use some radqueer terminology and am a practicing tulpamancer/system.
