Aging backwards, and mindscapes

Postby cuteclevermonster » Wed Oct 06, 2010 3:48 am

This is Shirley.

My Amy, the fairy, she was first 21 when she arrived, I was 14. it's been two years togetherness, now I am 17. Amy is now 15, or so. Does anyone else age backwards, or jump around? Amy is beautiful, long black hair, intense and serious but young and playful all at once. She encourages.

My girl Bright Eyes has always said that people never age(mature) chronologically.

Amy adds that we age approximately. Never exact.

Anyone else, a mindscape? a place you can all go together? a mansion perhaps or a countryside.
These are the people using this account: me, Shirley, it's my account.
Amy will be in bold to defend herself or pipe up once in a while
And me, Bright Eyes/Antelope, the girl Shirley refers to. I act as Secretary for all.
We do not have DID, btw.

I'm not one to really say with certainty, and others who might know more don't want to talk right now... but yeah, some of us jump around in age apparently. Some also have the mindscape thing, though we don't just have one, some have their own and maybe share it with others who are allowed in, and some don't have one of their own but can go into others.

We have several whose ages bounce around. It's mostly the kids and teens but a few of the adults do this, too. And yep, we have a mindscape (which we tend to refer to as "home world", "inner-landscape" or just "inside"). It's a castle on a mountain overlooking a small town. :)

Death of the self in a long, tearless night,
All natural shapes blazing unnatural light.

Dark,dark my light, and darker my desire.
My soul, like some heat-maddened summer fly,
Keeps buzzing at the sill. Which I is I?"

Once in awhile there's regression. I've personally been as young as 12.
One of my others, she's 9 or 10 right now but she first showed herself as 12ish. Sexual abuse flashbacks I think.

Mindscape...hehe.
it's mostly a bunch of rooms. Mine's normal, girls have some odd things, kids..heh I don't go in there, ever.
and we have foam furniture. part of my mind must not want anyone to get hurt :P

Only one of mine does that. One of my two or three littles.

As for my mindscape: It's a cottage with a large amount of rooms. And a newly added basement. The 'common room' (Which is like the front room) is all white. Dunno why. It's also where we all seem to go to talk and fight. And all the tables and chairs are bolted down, due to one of my alters throwing a chair at me. -_-
Kay, seeing how we switch and do actually talk, we'll color code ourselves: Kris (The Host), Edward, Jasper, Arista, Rein, Sycamore, Kitaro, Fiametta (Who only speaks Italian.), and Adonis.

What my Alters look like in the mindscape

Cadence, our is white too! our white room, we've painted it a few times but the walls exhale to white always. It's where I first appeared visually to Bright Eyes. there is a scary hallway where we sometimes used to hear angry crowds and voices coming from. Sometimes monsters too.

waiting, foam furniture! aw, sweet. makes me want to hug someone

insight, castle sounds pretty.

It's funny, we try to build some things we want sometimes and they dissipate. it's like someone else is creating the world altogether. But we can have effects on it.

Yeah. I think part of whatever bit of my mind decided to create some safe place (we also have a padded room which isn't inhabited but is lockable if anyone needs 20min-hr to calm down)
