      On a nerdy note, I discovered that DID is literally just a normal person but with depersonalisation, derealisation and amnesia between different brain regions, and things like Internal Family Systems or certain types of OSDD are just different versions of the same underlying mechanics.

      Everyone is a system. This is also why certain people with otherkin identities sometimes report multiple forms. The parts are the whole is the parts.

      I personally have 18 alters (mostly animal forms), plus an executive controller and a singlet, as if running a human as software on hardware. Certain behaviours and relations seen with alters reflect the underlying function of personality disorders and neurological issues (I have BPD because of course, and also OCPD). You can talk to any side of me you wish, and I can talk to any part of myself from any part of myself. Very deep and interesting psychology stuff–it’s a field of research for me.

        that’s interesting, do the animals speak English or is it more just emotions without words? do they talk to each other? do they take over eachother or do you have control over it?
