Dissociative Alters
Dissociative: Causing disconnection, separation, or split. In the context of psychology, it refers to a state or disorder characterized by a disconnection or detachment from one's thoughts, feelings, memories, or identity. Dissociative experiences can include gaps in memory, feeling detached from oneself or one's surroundings, or having a sense of being outside of one's body. Dissociative disorders arise as coping mechanisms in response to trauma or overwhelming stress, leading to a disruption in the normal integration of consciousness, memory, and identity."
Alters: To change, make changes to, make different, make alterations to, adjust, make adjustments to, adapt, amend, improve, modify, reform, reshape, become different, undergo a change, undergo a sea change, turn, metamorphose. In the context of Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), alters refer to distinct identities or personality states that individuals with DID may have. These alters can have their own unique characteristics, memories, and behaviors. The presence of alters allows individuals with DID to adapt and cope with trauma or distressing experiences. Alters can change or shift control, leading to amnesia or gaps in memory when one alter is in control and another takes over."
What happens when alters or alternate personalities suddenly have their own body?
(A/N: Hello everyone!
I'm quite new to writing, so please bear with me if there are any errors or nonsensical plot points.
I don't have much knowledge about Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), so I apologize if I unintentionally include any nonsensical elements that may not relate to DID.
Additionally, I want to assure you that I'm not taking DID lightly or as a joke. I understand the pain and difficulty that comes with having DID, as I also have my own mental struggles. It is important to recognize that mental health issues should never be trivialized or treated casually.
Thank you for understanding!)
