Hey dont use the term introject if ur endo. Like no offense and everything but it's a medical term for DID/OSDD alters from an external source.
Plus it gets in introject tags which are predominantly anti-endo. Just a heads-up
No offense, but don't assume shit about me. My system is traumagenic.
Medical term or not, it is a useful word to describe an experience a lot of plural systems have. But if it helps you sleeps at night, I'll say introtive instead. Just kidding, I don't care what you think.
Introject isn't even exclusive to systems. Singlets introject stuff, it just become part of them instead of a seperate person/alter. Your gatekeeping is bullshit.
I don't like talking about system stuff because of shit like this, people start assuming they know how my brain works.
I am pro endo, this doesn't mean I *am* endo. Endogenic systems can use introject if they want. Introtive matches with fictive and factive if they prefer, it's up to them. These words exist to help explain an experience, it doesn't make sense to force someone with a very similar experience to use a slightly different word.
Introject - Unconsciously adopt the ideas or attitudes of others
Or in plural terms
Introject - An alter, headmate or system member that comes from an external source
Introtive - An alter, headmate or system member that comes from an external source
So instead of worrying about my vocabulary when I make a silly little post about my system once in a blue moon, why don't we focus on destigmatizing DID and OSDD, hm? Gtfo.
