You can now find me on @_LunarSapphire_ or @Prismarine_Angels 

I made this account as a fresh start, and I don't like what I've made of it.
          
          I'm going inactive. If you're interested in where else to find me you can pm me, I'll most likely be returning every now and then so I should reply eventually.
          
          Thanks to you all for being here while I was active, anyway. 

Fuck? 

Wattpad why can't we like comments yet it's 2020

Looks like I'm the only one who likes dark mode. And you know what, I'm right, dark mode is great, bite me

Unpopular opinion: dark mode is the best update wattpad has got in the past, idk, year or so. I love it. Why the frick did it take so long to become a thing. 

Ever see someone comment talking negatively about something and you're like hey I could totally help them with their feelings about that so you type out an entire paragraph on how to feel better about it and then delete the whole thing because 'there's no point in saying this' and 'they'll probably think it's dumb' and like yeah thanks anxiety I could've maybe helped a few people but nah guess it wasn't necessary huh 

Things like this can also be extremely triggering to other systems. It can hurt bad. It really can. Please try to be respectful and do your research before you say things that could hurt. 

Furthermore, DID. Is. Not. A. Fun. Disorder. You do not want to have DID. It is not fun. It is not cool. DID stems from childhood trauma, from things happening to a child, under the age of 6-9, that should never happen to a child. And it's not fun. The dissociation. The amnesia. Literally losing parts of your life, going through periods of time where you feel detached from reality, that is not fun. And it should not be romanticised. 
          
          The community works so hard to destroy the stigma surrounding DID/OSDD JUST like the stuff Trisha has just spread to such a wide audience. 
          
          Please, if anyone has watched that video/is going to watch it, do NOT take ANYTHING she is saying as fact. And if anyone out there needs to hear this, you're not crazy. Having a mental disorder does not make you crazy. If someone is going to say disrespectful things to you like that, that speaks only for them, not for you.
          
          If you don't know anything about DID and don't know where to look to learn more, I would highly recommend starting with Anthony Padilla's recent video. It's incredibly respectful, incredibly educational, and incredibly powerful.
          
          [part 2/2]

Just in case there's anyone reading this who's watched Trisha's video but isn't educated in DID and doesn't understand why it's so harmful, I'm going to explain some stuff.
          
          I've dedicated a substantial amount of time in the past, like, 6 months of my life to learning about DID/OSDD. I'm still far from an expert, it's a very in depth disorder and I'm not here to say who does or doesn't have it. I'm not a professional, I can't determine that and I'm not going to try. 
          
          But as someone who has struggled endlessly over the past four months with coming to terms with the fact that I have alters, for Trisha to come forward and present all this incorrect information as though it is fact and self diagnose herself based on it is extremely harmful. Because anyone can see this video, people who know nothing about DID could see this and take it as truth. And that's damaging.
          
          Because the way she describes her alters is so scientifically incorrect. Like, one alter is the confidence, one alter is the meanness, one alter is promiscuous, one alter is innocent. An alter can have one of those traits, but an alter is not only one of those traits. They are not a part of you. They have their own identity, their own name, gender, sex, sexuality, personality, they are not just a trait. They have their own feelings, their own thoughts, and their own memories. And they are no more likely to hurt you or say mean things to you than any other member of society.
