New to DID

Well games for littles..
I have
dinkum [a little world where you can build things, plant stuff, etc... kind of like minecraft, but no monsters.

Unpack [where you can unpack stuff and put it in different places like you are moving in. There's toys, and stuff too..
Hokko Life: is like animal crossing... sort of. You do nice stuff for your neighbors.
Roller Coast Tycoon World Deluxe [So they can make roller coasters and a carnival..]
Sims 4 *I have 2 and 3, but EA will not let me use it anymore. CHEAP! They can make a sim and make them go to school n stuff or make parents or have a club, a party for kiddos.. Make their room, house, etc.
Rocket League: A game where you get a car *get others eventually* pick colors for it, decorate it, etc.. You play soccar with the cars you bump this big ball around in a stadium like setting and if you score a goal your name comes up real big on the screen and it is like a big explosion, but not scary one. Like big colors n stuff..
LA Noire: They can just drive the car around. I drove the car into a bus station one time. :p Not bang into it, Actually in to it and went inside it and drove around. LOL!
Cities: Skylines: Where you can build a city and watch all the funny stuff that happens. Or take care of it and watch it grow. Fires, and the fire trucks come real fast, or tearing down bldgs, or whatever. I don't play it to much because it's to annoying. So I have a good bit of games that they could play if they want. On LA Noire I drive around alot because I can't drive around in rl. So I like to do funny stuff and if I'm mad I drive real fast and run into benches, and stuff, that is so funny.

It's not demons. There are no such things.

Although one of my older ones is called Spirit which does come from the latin for demon but she's nothing at all related to anything spiritual but she's called that because she's a little bit antisocial. But she's cool. She looks after us in ways that literally no one else could. She's my likable rogue.

"you day dream to much.." then another says "that's not how it works my DID is this if yours isn't this way then.. you don't have it. Makes me want to just give up!!! :'(

The unfortunate reality is that we all run into this. One of our friends actually has a T who thinks DID is demonic possession. Thing of it is, that no it isn't. Yes, like the majority of our system have demonic forms in the Inner World, but we know that there's a lot of reasons for that. One of those is that being queer and autistic, we've been drawn to non-human and often monstrous characters in stories because we feel outcast from society.

Also, DID is like autism, there are a lot of people who will claim that 'you can't have it because it isn't like my disorder' when DID is a lot like autism in that it manifests differently based on the individual.

I know that it's a pain in the glutes to deal with that, and we won't judge you for your system being different from ours.

Oh I know it isn't. I for sure know that.

i know demons exist, but they are no the alters. I know that. Just been feeling kind of sad lately.

Hello and welcome!

If your others not taking control of yours body - don't force them to do it. You have no experience and well knowledge how to switching with them in controlled conditions, right? You only rarely talks with them?

I can give you some advices.
1. Communication and information. In real world. All the time handle small sketchbook+pencil in your pocket. Write "hello, my name is ..., if you read this - please, bee free to write someting about you on next page!" This way you can learn how many of you can control body. When all of you knows each other - go to next step.
2. Share information. Write dairy, where all of you must put all happening things, meet outer-persons, conversations, etc. To every story you must write down 2-3 small details - other alter can use them for prove knowledge of situation in case of outer-people communications. Ask your friend (who know about your DID) to talk a lot about things in your life. Put all clothes, all your stuff in the same places - nobody of yours not allowed to change that places (btw, it may be the first point of Agreement).
3. Agreement. Formalize and write down on paper all yours rules for make life easy and secure. Point to acts, which nobody can do. Point to acts, which can done after voting. Something like that. Learn how to avoiding conflicts.
4. Don't conflict with others. All of alters - complete different persons, with own needs and thinks. Try to understanding motives, try not to push hard on other feelings. Search for win-win behaviours. Be a good team, not hungry spiders in a leather jar.
5. Don't be obsessed of watching videos or readings articles about did. It's your normal condition and your main goal is to live your life without dangers. Just be calm and happy.

And, of course, be free to post here. All of you welcome)
