Im faking, heres my story
I was 14 years old when I first heard about plurality. I thought it was really interesting. Did some research and just thought that it was neat. I like hearing about others experiences that differ from mine. Around this time my mental health was shit from abuse and dissociation/memory gaps were common.
When I was 16 I went through something pretty traumatic. I ended up creating a character, Ash, for a story. The story was pretty much a self insert about the life I wish I had. Ash had friends and people who loved him. Then i started to realize that I was trans. I hated being called a he but if I pretended to be Ash, I didn’t mind being called he/him. When I would have dysphoric days I used my Ash persona to get by. There are times when she or they pronouns don’t feel right. I started using pluralkit on discord for when I preferred to be Ash. Pretending to be this character I created made me do things I wouldn’t normally do, for example drinking. I also started to make up conversations in my head with Ash sometimes. I started hrt and the number of Ash days decreased. I didn’t need him as much.
At some point I started age regressing. When I was around 19 I fell for this girl who didn’t think age regression was cool but she had a partner who was plural. A new persona, Boo, appeared. Boo is a little and could get the care we needed from this girl. The relationship didn’t end well but I still pretended to be Boo. Boo has less worries and could sleep easier.
Im not too sure what else to say. Open to questions. Sorry if my faking has affected anyone negatively.
