Does thistle do plant counseling or plant advice for other plant owners. I feel guilty when I have to cull sprouts to make room for more
Oh I’m the worst at that don’t ask me, you should ask Banjo or Snap. Banjo grew up in farming and Snap is a natural gardener I work with talking to the plants together to take care of them. The plants don’t like their toenails being cut EVERY time… sometimes they appreciate it, sometimes they feel like a dog getting their nails clipped!! That’s why you shouldn’t ask me!!!

how do i know if i'm actually plural or just like, a singlet inventing an immaginary freind to vessel incongruent brain stuff and intrusive thoughts into
A lot of time, patience, and kindness do yourself. Don’t put pressure on yourself about faking- that shit is stupid. Just seek out your personal truth and talk to friends. I like https://did-research.org/ for initial research :3

Hey so I don’t know if I have DID but a lot of what you all share about your experiences have really spoken to me and have led to some literal parts of mine trying to tell me I may have alters (that’s what I’ve been feeling at least, I’m not too sure yet). Are you ever open to DM’s to chat in general/make friends/talk to someone that may have a repressed system? Sorry if it’s too invasive of a question or if I worded anything wrong, I’m still learning /gen
You can DM me for sure, but I am in no way able to diagnose or help you discover yourself better than a therapist trained in dissociation and trauma can or even a good close friend might be a better choice!!! I also recommend if you already have a therapist you like ‘coping with trauma related disassociation’ as a therapist/client workbook specifically for DID that is very helpful in bites :)

I wish I knew you when I lived in l.a. I recently moved away from Anaheim and I also love website petgames (flight rising) and gardening a ton.... Your plant posts give me peace and comfort...I've never even knew what a system was before following you! I love learning new things every day, the good the bad and ugly

hey i just wanted to say thank you for being so open as a system <:) when i started reaching out to my alters, we drew each other because we saw you guys do it and it's made the whole discovery process + our communication/relationships soooo much easier ^^ plus it's fun!! keep being you(s), love your art!!

i was really tired when i sent that and didn't really make clear of my point, i'm sorry to dissapoint or upset you, i guess my standpoint is it's a different experience to see real life DID lived out in comparison, as someone with a trauma-based disorder when there's so much misinformation online

im not someone you know but in some wistful way I'd like to have been, I imagine us getting along in our own way as dysfunctional, disabled queer systems, able to understand each other in some ways maybe, I imagine what history we could have had

I'm a different person, but I also have a crush on you too, and tbh pretty much it's all of you, but I'm too chicken and so I will declare my love here HAHA! But yeeaaahhhh I like you also.

you’ve made me become more embracing of the DID community online. i have had a lot of doubts about it because of past experiences knowing people who faked it (and used it to manipulate people.) it’s such a complicated mental health process that deserves respect and understanding. so thank you for opening my mind

im curious as to how you and your gfs interact if you’re in the same body? like, what’s cuddling or spending time together like? does it get lonely?
Nah we have three bodies we barely think about having one to the point that when we fight we will say ‘I DONT WANT TO SLEEP IN THE SAME BED AS X’ unless having to like go do a thing in The Body and usually this is in charge of uhhh Owning The Body right now but I colored the hair. Tripp kinda disowns it actively but his dysphoria is bad (so is thistles though!!! We just WORK THROUGH HERS). Literally idk what to say we in our head are three people and thistle and Tripp are Over There but also in my head and we all have funny times together because of it. Body exists though. points at it I like dancing in it and that’s about it, thistle explores it more carefully than I do.

I've recently come to terms that I have source fictives for alters and its hard when others look down upon us. I wish there was an easier way of explaining to people that it isn't kin its an entirely different experience.. do you have any fictive alters?

How did you know you were plural? Do you have any good resources on DID? I really want to learn more about it
One of my alters realized they were turning to themselves for self comfort at night and NOT their partner, that turned into a fiasco, made them realize they’d rather date their alter than a weirdo who would out their therapy journal on a perceived possibility of an alter existing.
As for resources, I usually start people at https://did-research.org/ and recommend people try starting Coping With Trauma Related Dissociation with their therapists together.
