Just wanna come and vent somewhere others will know the pain. I bought this beautiful pair of handmade earrings from a stall at an alternative market the other day, and when I wore them to go and see my cousins band I must have taken them out and not put them in my bag like i usually do. I am gutted. I still have a bookmark I bought from the same seller, but the earrings were so pretty and the seller was so kind and if I'm honest I think I was crushing a little. It makes it feel so much worse lol.

Just a question. Is complete source separation needed? All of us understand we arent our source , but most feel deep connections and kinships to their sources and want to keep that connection as its comforting. Is complete separation the only way or can we keep some

So. we have a few introjects who formed when we had very limited views of their media and seem to develop more personality traits and memories as their knowledge of their source progresses. It isn't intentional, we believe in source separation but it still seems that when more knowledge is gained, behaviors and pseudo memories change. Is this a common observed phenomenon? I don't know how I would go about researching it.

Kind of an odd one but can introjects change personality traits and behaviors upon consuming more source media? Id assume so, since most alters dont front for the first time fully formed and will probably latch onto traits from people around them and their source media but im curious if its common? We have had alters go from not acting like their sources at all to being a carbon copy and having to work through separation again

Is it possible to believe an alter is an introject when they arent? We thought this alter we have in this system was introjected from a real life person we fear quite intensely, but they do not embody that person nor do they seem to hold their beliefs or memories. I understand that introjects dont necessarily work like that but its uncommon for us to have introjects with no pseudomemories or ties to their source at all even if they distance themselves. Is it possible that they formed and believed themselves to be an introject of this person out of our collective fear when they are not? I hope this makes sense.

I was bullied at my theatre group for a few weeks, but now im Worried I maybe bulied someone else.

Me and the person in question were both joking about how they could play a kid character due to them being short and pretty young looking, and one or two weeks later I made a similar joke. I'm pretty sure I apologised but I still feel awful. I was being bullied by another girl whilst mistreating someone else i feel awful.

Hey, not sure if anyone who read my post will see this, but I spoke to the head of our theatre group and she spoke to the girl bothering me. I'm not sure if it'll stop this, but she knows now and I can go to this teacher for help if it escalates again. Thanks for all ur support!

Hi! Im a young teen (17, NB) and this other person (17,F) at my theatre group rarely interacts with me. She only talks to me when she needs something or to put me down and single me out (Ex. I laughed at a dark joke someone made and she made it a point to point out that i was laughing)

She's super social, everyone else loves her but shes just horrible to me. Whenever I talk to her about stuff to do with our show she simply answers from over her shoulder. She doesnt look at me, only gives short answers. She doesn't give me the time of day.

I am autistic and visibly alternative, maybe this is what she dislikes? Im unsure. Maybe I also said something that upset her, but I genuinely don't know. Whenever I try to interact with the group when shes there she also just instantly goes deadpan as if I just ruined her day. Does anyone know what this could mean? Does anyone have any advice on how to deal?

Hi. Basically what the title says. I am pretty sure we have no sexual abuse but have several persecutors that act out sexual crimes in the inner world.

We have OCD, specifically sexually themed and I'm wondering if theyre reenacting intrusive thoughts and fears instead of trauma? Is this even possible? Advice please
