Need advice on smth
Copy/ pasting this from a Discord server
So recently I’ve had a couple OLD-old imaginary friends crop up and express vague awareness; like they’re definitely aware just… maybe not fully-fully/ can’t communicate well? But definitely with an interest in being forced
And firstly I don’t rly… *want* to. Like they’re so closely connected to my childhood I don’t want them exposed to the horrors of, yknow, now. Like there’re just aspects of my past I’d like to leave in the past rather than see them “tainted” and this is one of them.
And secondly, I’d be concerned bc one of them is named after my sister’s deadname and the other’s entire existence was centered around said sister who is not receptive to plurality like at all; I don’t wanna force the one to change his name or use a pseudonym but I don’t want my sister to have to deal with that especially knowing how much worse it’ll make things and I don’t want the other having to grapple with a lack of well-perception from the person who was literally her whole world.
But I don’t want to just… leave them that feels cruel.
The other thing which segues into our second problem is that there’re too many of us already; being monocon a lot of us are dealing with incredibly high self-apathy because there’s just not enough brain capacity for everyone to care and it’s awful so if anyone has any tips to deal with that that’d be great
Writing this out I realize I~ probably shouldn’t ‘mance my old imaginary friends but again I don’t just want to leave them to rot
