This is in honor of our close-to-completion of the Neurodivergent page! Its flying by so quickly, and honestly, I think it may be done tonight or tomorrow (for serious this time!!!)
In this AMA, you can ask questions that you may have been scared to question before, or questions you were afraid were rude/offensive! We won't get offended! (our littles, Ruthie, Willow, Wendy, Mariposa, and Meteora will not be involved in this conversation)
Now, before you ask anything, please read the system page if you havent (or re-read it) and also feel free to read our about page (this is mainly so you can have more specific questions about each headmate, if you want to ask more specific questions)
Also:
'Alter' is a medical term, and we dislike it. We prefer the term headmate.
If you have questions about our systemhood, please refer to us as an "adaptive system" and not a "DID system."
when asking about DID, ask about dissociation/amnesia. When asking about our systemhood, ask about out plurality.
For context, our system started out as demi-plural and endogenic, however after trauma occured and mental health detoriated, we became a fully-plural traumagenic, neurogenic, and stressgenic system
