Thanks to a friend finding an article, we think we know exactly who our system is made up of at last! Please tell us what you think!

(Webber)Erik

"Fictive- A person from fictional sources, who is adopted into the mind space of another person. Psychologists refer to this as an introject but many people feel there is more to it than that.
Such a character may be a very real presence to his host, but might not step outside his own world, or interact with the world in any way. The idea that characters or fictive persons habitually front is a mistake. If your charaters do not, you are not "doing it wrong".
When a fictional or imaginary character communicates with you and does begin interacting with the everyday world in some way--either by making comments otions, asking you to do or obtain certain things, or taking your body to act independently on his own--he or she should be respected as a person in their own right in your reality, and you should arrange responsible communications and cooperation just as a multiple or median group would. (online term)
Having fictive persons in the group is a form of hosting. Some people r having hisorical persons, or simply ordinary people from former times, in their groups as well.
This was known to the early Spiritualists who called it--you guessedmultiple personalities."

From what I know of you I do not think that you have DID or multiple personalities though of course you are very welcome in this forum.

You need to be diagnosed by a professional.

Take care.

I like this article. Francis (of my system) is also from a previous era. Is it validating for you to have found this article??

I do NOT agree with pegasus; that's just my opinion, though. Take it with a grain of salt, if you will.

To be honest, we agree with you; we belive this article suits us more. Even Jane (T) dosen't know what to think--we're showing her the articale tomorrow. We simply say we have DID because it's the closest to what happens with us; our condition and DID are very similear, and we like to be around people who understand. We hope you and all the others who post here can understand where we are coming from and aren't angry at us or hate us; god knows we get too much of that in real life. *bows in apology*

you dont have to have DID to be posting in this place. since I joined a year or so ago I have noticed there are people here that are DID, there are people who are not. some have friends or relatives that have DID, some have symptoms of other dissociative problems. there are also people who come here just looking for information. thee are other people here who have similar to dissociative disorders things like introjects, the child with, ego states. No apology is necessary. if this is where you are comfortable posting then this is where you belong. besides its not up to us here to say whether you have a dissociative disorder or any other mental disorder. thats supposed to be up to your own mental health people. therefore its not up to me to say to you, you dont have DID and you don't belong here. If you think you belong here than you do. doesnt matter what your diagnosis actually is to me. I figure thats between you and your doctors.
Thanks for this!

I dont think you have DID eather... most people only have one or two or 10 like that but you have hummmm 50 people that "lived" before.... I mean it is posible just like with every rule in science there is an exception but as long as it is ok for you... maybe they will make a whole to condition for you guys
hope you are well....

That's a great article. Thank you for sharing. Regardless of the label any one places upon you, I think what this article discusses shares a lot of similarities with what I have heard from you that you experience. I also think it's great that you are going to share it with your T.

I'd be interested in reading the rest of the article. Can you post me a link or drop me a PM?

Take care!!

Our T, by the way, is thrilled by the news
