How did you get a fucking diagnosis in only a year and after only one session???

I've been in the mental health system for 7 years now, 5 of those suspecting a dissociative disorder, and 4 of those being treated for a dissociative disorder, and I still don't have a professional diagnosis.

It is okay to mourn the child that you were, or the child that you could have been. It is okay to be sad or angry that no one protected you like you should have been protected. It is okay to grieve.

i suppress my headmates / mask their behaviour & then im surprised when i feel like im faking because i dont notice switches and we dont have major behavioural differences in public… hello??

thank the alter who did the homework. tell the alter who cooked how much you liked the food. tell the alters who shower and clean your room and work out and drive home how much you appreciate them keeping things together, and tell them more when they mess up, because it's all about being there for each other.

my identity has been dissociative disordered :(

[galacticbirdcollective]

Can we stop coming up with alter roles that try to justify alters being straight up abusive??

age

age is a very complicated matter within systems, but i feel like on important thing to say is that BODY AGE COMES FIRST. i do not care if you're both the same age alter-wise, if your body ages are illegally different (adult and minor, ect) then you should not be dating. yes alter age can sometimes affect the maturity of alters but it differs from system to system and body age should always come first before you start to bring up alter age / consider it

you can absolutely have a childhood trauma disorder as a child. btw. you guys are confused with the fact that OSDDID is usually diagnosed as an adult.

You are allowed to love being a system, after all, it is what saved your life

[galacticbirdcollective]

being a system is going through years and years of abuse and torment. being a system is sitting in the shower sobbing because you don’t know who or where you are. being a system is losing year-long friends because they refuse to believe you. being a system is looking the worst parts of you in the face and going “i think we can change”. being a system is holding a child version of yourself and repeating “i love you” over and over again.

being a system is hugging yourself and saying, “hey, we’re gonna be okay.”

When you think your friend might be plural call that syspicion

“One of your alters doesn’t like me!”

My dude some of my alters don’t like ME. You ain’t special.

Bitches in my head having anxiety, call that a nervous system

Hey! We're the Galactic Bird Collective!

We're a system in the process of getting a formal diagnosis!

Bodily we are 25, born in 1998, and we use they/he pronouns collectively.

We're chronically ill and neurodivergent. We're also a mixed bipoc.

We may be polyfragmented, we're unsure still, and we're a traumagenic system.

We may tag our posts, we may not.

Ask us anything!
