People like this are gonna influence young people (mostly girls) to start believing they actually have MPD when really they just have mood swings.
It’s fine to consciously integrate your aspects, it’s fine to favor some aspects over the others...
But when you call them out and start naming them, you’ve lost the fucking plot.
In its true form, it runs along the same lines as schizophrenia, but if the aspects are integrated then it’s nowhere near as extreme or upsetting as schizophrenia.
These ‘alters’ people are just traumatized from life events, be it abuse over a period of time, or singular events... all unresolved.
They starve for attention, and they also recognize trauma has left their aspects feeling disconnected from one another because they’re all hurt by the trauma but they all have different ways of dealing with it.
