Hi, well I'm new to your forum. i shy away from "newbie' cause honestly i feel there's nothing newdie about us LOL. Ummm not sure what all to say so I guess just maybe some quick stats:

this body is 41, we have 5 grown kids and 8 grandkids (our kids have had it pretty rough)
Not exactly sure how many there our of us, i mean I couldnt give you an accurate count because some of my parts like to add names out of nowhere, we believe this is a security measure and T deflective.
We are in weekly T, We were diagnosed in the early 90's but I feel like we are just now actually getting "somewhere." There was way too many years spent in crises mode dealing with COWS- CRISES OF THE WEEK, this is a term my T throws around lol.
We live alone... hmmm yeah We live in an apt. by ourselves, attemting indendence.
We are artists, crafters, writers, singers but can't focus on anything so nothing gets done. BUT I am great at planning!
Sooo that's it, I feel like I'm babbling bye for now Angela

Hi Angela, welcome to the forum. We have a few artists and writers in here but unfortunately none of us can carry a tune. I'm 24 and I have 70+ alters, I still haven't met them all. I think you'll find plenty of COWS around here :)

Well Our oldest daughter likes to write music and sing so I try my hand at that, I like to write poems and stories mostly. Sky mostly does the music stuff. Anya is very gifted in sewing and crocheting but thats not my thing, I can crochet but I get bored too quick? Jade is our artist, she paints, draws, papermache's. I've recently tried painting I think I'm getting ok at it, not sure tho. I feel like the people who are telling me they are good have to cause they love me, lol.

Our most prominant parts you will see on here are most likely gonna be ; Anya, Andrea, Georgia, Sky, Ian, Angela (me), and Jade. But there are 58 of us at the last most accurate count. Angela

This is our system map. There is another to be added, but we'll get around to that soon!

mosiacmonkey wrote:Finally got around to doing our system. As far as we're aware there are 12 of us.


Mara (23): the original & assumed builder of our house :-) I’m sure she’ll add something to say how amazing she is!

Jonathan (4): J is the first little we were aware of, and was created whilst Mara was very young.. He’s a total sweetheart is very gentle & playful but can be extremely jealous. Suffers from severe flashbacks & nightmares.

Sabrina (mid 20s): also known as “the angry one”, she’s the protector of the kids, fearless & strong. When she gets angry everyone takes cover as she doesn’t seem to have a stop button so it takes ages for her to calm down. She’s really good with the kids in the system & is a bit like a mother hen. Doesn’t get on with Kerry at all! She rarely comes out, & is triggered by anger & extreme stress/frustration

Josh (23): Another protector. He rarely speaks & is extremely quiet. He experiences no emotion, & is asexual. Very rarely sleeps & holds an extremely large proportion of our memories.

Addision(6/7): Addi is another of our littles. She’s in a lot of pain at the moment, she cries a lot & cannot control her memories, so tends to project them onto others (hence the issue with Mara recently). She is extremely withdrawn & doesn’t talk to anyone except Sabrina.

Kaia(4-6): another little. Extremely curious, really friendly but quite shy. Still doesn’t quite get the concept of not coming out in public. She’s J’s best friend & they love drawing together. She has a massive obsession with horses. She’s recently started talking to Mara’s partner & is getting more & more brave.

Alaina (15): Typical grumpy anti-social teenager. Hasn’t been out in ages. Don’t really know much about her. Sabrina says she’s really angry, quite destructive & has pyromaniac tendencies. She’s “taken care of” by Sabrina.

Kymani (4-6): Can’t speak. Like Addi, he has serious issues which Josh & Sabrina deal with. Never comes out. Extremely shy & distrusting of everything & everyone.

Paz (29): very quiet Latin guy. Quite emotional apparently - don’t speak to him much. He hasn’t been out in ages either.

Asabi (mid 20s): French speaking, only hangs out with Claude. Not much to tell really. Only comes out to severe triggers. Lives away from the rest of us with Claude.

Claude (mid 30s): Only speaks French. Hates children, & is constantly complaining when Kaia & J play. He lives apart from us out of his own choice. He has only ever come out to severe triggers & even then is extremely rare. J doesn’t trust him & is scared of him, he’s kinda like those movies the old man on the hill that kids dare each other to ring his doorbell.

Kerry (26): Me! Not much to say about myself. I’m the only one who can do Mara’s job & can mimic her completely when need be. Suppose I'm the main alter. Me & Mara are always co-conscious & switch between each other seamlessly.
Dx: D.I.D, BPD, C-PTSD, EDNOS & Synaesthesia

Sorry, but we cannot concentrate long enough to read really long replies or threads so don't think we're being rude if we don't.
