I’m so happy the videos are coming back slowly! We all miss Chloe, but we still loved her when she became Nin after integrating with Nina, and I’m sure we’ll love Kya just as much when we get to see more of them ❤️. Much, Love, DissociaDID!
i still cannot believe kyle and nin integrated. i’m so proud of y’all for the progress you’ve made as i imagine for kyle to integrate would mean a lot of healing and internal preparation occurred even if y’all didn’t notice. i adore kya and i hope they (since kya is genderfluid i figure this is the best pronoun to use) continue to stay strong and fight the good fight. every human being has flaws and no one is perfect and i hope y’all are doing well and not letting the hate get to you. only you and your doctors know the truth and that’s the most important part.
@@6Pope9 no it's not. It's actually bad and I think they integrated because of horrible things that happened. It's not good and it's like mixing people you know maybe friends or family and becoming something completely different. You still have D.I.D and you're a new alter but the others are gone forever and you're still able to split and have new alters
@@6Pope9 no it's absolutely not and shouldn't ever be that way. The goal is to have a system that gets on with each other and works together and gets rid of the trauma and everything.
I know we’re late to the party but we wanted to thank you for this video! We have a few non-human and animal alters ourselves and they often feel unrecognized, left out, and unimportant because they’re unknown or looked down on by so many people. We can introduce you to some of our animal alters. TW// Ab/se . . . We have an unnamed alter (he sometimes calls himself Asterax) who presents as fox, having formed after being locked somewhere for weeks, starved and beaten to unconsciousness over and over again. He hid a lot of the time and managed to avoid harsher punishments, sucking up to his abusers as much as possible. Like a fox, he used charming and smart words along with thinking quickly. He’s less animalistic and is able to speak in human-tongue and complete basic, daily tasks. He’s one of our physical protectors. We love him as much as we love the rest of our system and acknowledge that he plays just as much of an important role as the rest of the alters in our system. We have another alter who presents barkself as a dog and goes by the name ‘Treat’. Bark was forced to eat out of a dog bowl, sleep on a dog bed, obey every of their abuser’s commands and walk around on all fours as a humiliation tactic. Treat was gaslighted into returning to barks abuser. Bark’s very animalistic and could be considered ‘feral,’ they enjoy being pet and taken of walks. At times Treat can be untamable and impossible to interact with, this is not the case all of the time however. Bark can speak in human tongue to some extent and can perform basic needs for the body. Their another one of our physical protectors. We love bark as much as we love the rest of our system and acknowledge that they play just as much of an important role as the rest of the alters in our system. We have so many more but so far Bark and Asterax are the two alter’s we know for sure are okay with us sharing part of their story. Thank you for reading if you’ve read this far, it means more than you know.
As someone who is just now exploring (with the guidance of a professional), the possibility to be a system, I want to say I appreciate you sharing this information so much. It is so helpful for me to learn these things through real systems, rather than some books.
I’m so sorry about what happened to your system! I’m glad those two non-human alters exist to be physical protectors, and it’s sad that they don’t get recognised as much. I hope that stuff never happens to you system again.
Thank you so much. Your system is so so strong for sharing your story. Sometimes when I’m doing research on DID it’s difficult to humanise it, in the sense that I can’t imagine it happening to a real person, people’s stories make the disorder feel so much more real. Thank you, and I wish you the best future possible
The story about the snake alter is so horrific, how can anyone do that to a child?!?! However, otherwise I enjoyed the video, thank you for reuploading. It's so soothing to listen to Sally, it was also nice to meet Amira! You don't have to feel embarassed about filming switching, it's personally to me really interesting and seeing it in lots of your videos normalized it for me as well. However if you decide you don't feel comfortable filming it at any point in time, that's entirely your decision and you have every right to it 😁, so don't feel pressured to leave it in if you don't feel comfortable with it at any point in time.
These are soooo informative and amazing to watch. It hurts my heart so much about the kids being abused. Every child deserves to be safe, loved and respected. The animal and non-human alters make so much sense in the way that you explained it. I want to thank Chloe for uploading and all the alters for making this happen. You are so loved.
I agree the story Salley told about the snake alter was terrible to hear. Knowing that some people have fun terrorizing a child like that is really really awful. I'm following quite a lot of systems and I sometimes forget why they have DID and they survived such abuse
you have no reason to be embarrassed for switching 💗 it needs to be more normalized and accepted. it is not your fault that you have DID, and we as a society should not be judging anyone for having it
So happy you all came back. My best friend has DID and your videos help me to understand her better. I think if you are comfortable showing a switch on a case by case base is cool. I appreciate watching and learning kinda the signs to maybe look for. I'm an oblivious individual. I think you guys are great and keep kicking butt! Do whatever makes you all happy.
Just wanted to leave a comment, I discovered this channel thanks to Anthony Padilla and it really helped me understand more about DID :) Also, AWESOME hair I love it !
I DID TOO!! I've been watching her ever since then, and I actually have a friend that has DID and wasn't sure of it until she talked to me. She got diagnosed, and im glad I could help her, she thought she was crazy-
I am a victim of physical, mental and emotional abuse by my father but it was never this extreme. It gives me comfort learning more about the effects of abuse because throughout my childhood I always thought it was my fault that I was abused. It took me a long time to fully love myself. Although, to this day it is still difficult for me whenever I come back home to visit my family. My dad always makes fun of me for getting so jumpy whenever he is around. Whenever he touches or tries to hug me now I get so uncomfortable and I want him to stop but I just don’t know what to say to him because he’s my dad. Watching your videos give me so much more comfortable through my difficulties. So, thank you so much! I know it’s impossible to read every comment on your channel but I like commenting anyways because I just feel like your channel is such a comfortable space to talk about things that are going on. Thank you so much for being so open! I would love to understand more about how you think your system developed your nonhuman alter. If there were movies or shows you watched growing up that you think played a role in developing your nonhuman alter.
so glad you got to reupload, and so sorry you've been dealing with so much turmoil. its lovely to hear Chloe say you've hit 2000 subscribers!! look at all your growth since then!
@@SerenaGr Often alters take the form of something that makes the child feel safe, so if they were abused by a man they may split a woman as a caregiver or if they were abused a girl they may split a boy trauma holder to avoid getting too close to what happened. One of the main reasons systems can form mostly or entirely non-human alters is because we were abused or neglected by so many humans around us of every age range and gender (men, women, boys, girls, etc.) that the only type of “person” that wouldn’t cause cognitive dissonance were animals and fantasy creatures. I find that non-human dominated systems are most common in multi-perpetrator abuse where the child has no more trust for any humans. It also has a lot to do with being dehumanized which is also common in severe abuse, most people cannot commit severe abuse without dehumanizing their victim. It’s less painful to be dehumanized if you are an animal and are separate from everyone who is hurting you.
Will rewatch every upload! Stead fast support for your channel, it's taught me a lot and has greatly helped me as a writer. Much love from a Cupeño/Kupa Native American friend from across the pond. Love from turtle island!
I have a friend who is a system: they have multiple alters who are angels. (Ive asked for permission to comment this) They are very much real and valid and just because they are not human does not mean they dont have their own feelings and lives. Thank you for everything you do dissociaDID
Yessss Re-Upload!! You are a Inspiration to people like me, personally i don't have DID but, the fact that you're soo strong that you're not letting some random person stop you from doing what you do best which is raising awareness and making amazing content doing it. Keep on going and know we all have your back ❤️❤️❤️❤️
our gatekeeper is a fox-like creature, and i think they formed that way becase as a child we needed to be a fox: hide, get things we needed in a sneaky way, and observe. Foxes are generally quiet and observant and also very smart. The gatekeeper mostly observes, so I guess it fits in a way. -Caz
Thank you for sharing your videos! I had a switch this morning (I tend to have them throughout the day). When I started writing my dark psychological fantasy series, I struggled to write logically, but intuitive writing brought out the different parts of me. Since then, I've discussed my issues with therapists. One said, "You seem to think of yourself as a novel." That made a lot of sense, as I focused on reading the most when my mom compared me to my brother who started reading the Bible at 3 years old. At four, I felt dumb for struggling to read, but my daddy, who passed away in 2006 (he was a truck driver, so absent, though he made sure we knew we had his love), told me it was okay that I took time to think. He seemed to see how I'd visualize what I read, or study the pictures on the pages. The animal alters I seem to have: dragon, dogs, wolves, cats, tigers, mermagons (mermaid dragon), mermaids, and wolagons (wolf dragons). They come out in awkward times, usually when I'm excited or angry at something. For example, when I learned I had sand flea allergies in Iraq, I growled while running on the treadmill because my ankles itched so much! When that happened, the doctor gave me hydrocortizone cream. That didn't work, so I convinced him to give me a bottle of iropropyl alcohol. That worked. Sometimes, the animal alters show me what I need in life more than logical thinking does. Sometimes I wonder if it's all fantasy, but my gut tells me the fantasy exists because the alters formed early in life. The lack of consistent life memories leads me to believe my fantasies are my realities. Living life is easier when I stop doubting myself and just learn.
It is so brave of you to allow us to see the switch on camera. It helps us to understand. At the same time, it is truly private and completely your choice (all of you involved) to decide if it's too private or you feel to vulnerable to show us. Also, I appreciate the captions that explain when a switch is happening, when more than one alter is fronting, or even when a spider is distracting you!
Ahh sally is such a soothing and calming soul! I swear i can feel her kind and calming energy through videos and i love it! As long as your comfortable showing your switches on camera i dont mind if there left in the videos at all. Its part of the education so its all fine! Im glad to see you making videos again i missed you all lol!!😊😜❤
I'm glad you mentioned this in the video, Chloe, because I always feel as we're intruding into a very intimitate situation when you switch on camera. I myself (I'm aware of the others doing the same) tend to make it go unnoticed when there's a switch, simply because -except for my husband- I'm uncomfortable having other people notice it. I guess it's because of how I feel about it that I think I'm crossing a boundary when we see you and the others switch. It's silly, but I look away when I noticed one of you dissociating. I deeply appreciate your videos, however; I wish I could speak about this as freely as you do online. Love and light to you all ♥
I miss your content so much and I'm so happy you are posting again. You help so many people. Thank you and take care. I hope you sort out your legal issues, nobody deserves to go through what you've been through. Just know your subscribers care for you as if you were part of our family!
You guys are so intelligent. There is so much to understand about DID, it fascinates me ,the mind is so powerful but i also feel a heavy heart because of why it exists in the first place. May god bless you on your journey through life!
Thanks for the reupload. You opened my eyes to so many things that I did not know or understand. It has helped me help others.. keep up the good work. You are needed
I truly find watching these videos and seeing all of your alters appear on screen is so interesting, the way the brain works to help protect you in later life from horrific events is beyond Amazing. Truly Amazing 🖤
It breaks my heart to hear what some children have to deal with and I been watching the channel now for a bit and it’s really interesting I love all of you and anyone else with DID you are strong and I love you. Also loves and hugs to everyone ❤️❤️❤️
I don't have DID but my dad was diagnosed with a split personality in 1980 something. I don't think he has that though but we do both have Borderline Personality Disorder. I find your explanations so fascinating and very clear. My heart breaks for all of us who have had to experience such traumatic events that have landed us where we are today. But, we are strong. All of us! I have such a new understanding of DID and it helps me to bring even more compassion to the table. I never understood the non human alters until now. But wow, it all makes sense now. Stay strong beautiful souls!!! Love you all!!!
I'm so incredibly glad to see you uploading again. We've missed you all so much, and I want to say a huge welcome and we love you to Kya. I'm so so sorry things have been so rough for you lately, and I'm thinking of you and prãYiñg for justice in this situation. People sometimes think us survivors are easy targets - they vastly underestimate us. ❤️❤️
I'm so glad you're back. Please keep the switches in the video's to help us and people who have DID or their family and friend's of those with DID. Love y'all, keep posting and I'm looking forward to more of your content that helps so many other people.
Thank you for reuploading! It was like getting to see an old friend almost! It's also bittersweet to think about how much has changed since then. I hope you all are doing well.
awww! I've missed Sally! I am SO soo happy to see y'all reuploading these amazing videos. Thank you all for all your hard work and dedication to educating and helping. Sending so much love and support to everyone in your system. ❤️🥰❤️
So if the host alter and another integrate and change their name, does that cause issues because the legal name stays the same as it was before the integration? Would you change the legal name? Im so happy youre getting your videos back!!!
I think they got asked that question before when Chloe and Nina integrated. Non said that Chloe will always be the name of the body and therefore also stay their legal name.
Usually a system will use the host alter's name for legal purposes, since legal name changes are expensive and involve a lot of paperwork. Integrations can happen over long or short periods of time, so it's important to allow that flexibility.
Glad that you are re uploading all the videos, please keep safe and I hope this stressing experience with the claims and court end soon, lots of love for you and all the sistem 🧡
I feel really honoured that all of you would trust us enough to share this very personal and privet moment with us. I don’t have D.I.D however I love learning about it and helping to spread the correct information.
I was kinda confused when Sally said "Chloe " and then after a bit I remembered.........this was a reupload of a removed video, lol, old or new the video is still great
You're right about the change of accent, you can really hear Sally's voice disappear into something very different that must be Amira! It sounds almost like a German accent, but I don't know anything about Amira so I'd love to learn more!
I noticed both the accent and the speech pattern, which definitely seemed like the speech pattern of someone who doesn't necessarily speak English as a first language
I feel sad that Sally didn't get to finish her video :( I wanted to hear her explanation of fictives (I'm not sure if that's how you spell it) this channel has been so informative. I'm glad I stumbled upon it some years ago. I felt like I was witnessing a very private moment during the switch to Chloe😳 but I want to thank the entirety of the dissoiaDID system for all the information I've acquired and I wish y'all nothing but the best (if you see this :) )
You know... I know this is for education and awareness on dissociative identity disorder.. But I also want to thank you because I find this very comforting as someone that has it too. We're very thankful. You're making us more comfortable about ourselves and truly, we appreciate all that you've down for everyone. Thank you so so much ❤❤❤
So much love for Sally and everyone in the DissociaDID system. Bringing in the new year with the system in my heart, I truly hope these videos will be around for a long time to come. Here's to 2022 💖🎉
I'm so so glad to see one of your amazing videos! I started following just last year but I rushed to see all the previous video you had made up that time. I found them inspiring, delicate and an incredible way to open everybody to DID. Thank you for sharing so much and deciding to start your channel. Hope you're well and safe. Love from Italy 😊
I love seeing you guys taking back your channel! I hope the whole system is doing well and taking care of one another with how crazy everything has been! I miss everyone and I hope when the system is comfortable enough we can reconnect with the alters, I just wanna know how everyone has been during this time and if anyone has picked up new hobbies or interests.
I'm so glad you were able to reupload most of your videos from before! I don't personally have DID but I think that your videos have taught me so much and I'm very grateful for that! Much love to you all, DissociaDID!
OMG I'm so happy with your progress and I actually screamed when I saw you guys were able to upload! Missing you and my heart is with you on this battle 💞
DID is such an interesting phenomenon! Its so cool that some of you are willing to go on camera and talk about this so people can understand is better. I dont have DID myself but just from watching a few of your videos it sounds hard.
I'm sorry that you're all having to deal with such a stressful time right now. It's wrong what that person is doing to you. But if it weren't for the drama, I never would have found this channel ( I found it through a somewhat random suggestion on my homepage for VangelinaSkov's video discussing the issue), and I'm so happy I did. Your videos are amazing, and through your bravery and vulnerability, you are helping to educate the world about DID, and teaching all of us how to be more empathetic towards those we perceive as different. Thank you, all of you. ❤️
I love seeing the switches. Even though some people will say it's fake🙄. If you think it's fake don't watch it. I love this channel. I don't know anyone around me who has DID so seeing people on RUclips and other social medias who do is really nice. Thank you for including the switches. I find it interesting to watch. ❤️❤️❤️
Not sure if anyone has this experience, the reference from my non-human alter was when I was like, 18? And then, he appeared. Wondering if someone could enlighten me, could it be my other alters who had those traumas and memories, and decided to pass it to him when he was created?
Happy to see that you are able to re upload old videos. I got this notification that a video was uploaded and my day was made. I missed your content. I hope you are all safe and well. Sending my love your way.
THANK YOU. As a person who is brand new to DID and knows nothing, your videos are informative and I'm very grateful for how you go into more detail on certain aspects. I also appreciate that some in the (your?) system are willing to show the switch. I apologize in advance and would appreciate being corrected if I say anything wrong or insulting in any of my comments so I can learn and I hope you all are doing well during this new year. ❤
This was such an interesting video! I wonder if when animal alters come to the front, do they get confused with their environment? Or are they aware they are in a human body? Do they speak any human tongue? They are so interesting, I'm quite curious I have to search more! Thank you so much for the video and you decide if you should keep the switches, personally I like them cause it gives another alter a chance to speak but I also understand it's a very personal thing so it is totally up to you guys! Lots of love ♥️♥️
Answering from the perspective of someone who's known systems with animal alters, it really depends on the system. In some systems animal alters are very animalistic, so they don't talk, they act feral and cannot be communicated with, whereas in other systems animal alters are very human in their behaviour and might only have a few traits that are from their animal side (e.g. liking being petted or taken on walks etc). I think with DID it's always so important to remember that every system is unique in how they present.
I asked my half-human half-spider alter this question, here is their response: Hi. It’s very confusing coming to the front, as you have to get used to this strange human world. Yes, I am aware that I’m in a human body, but it is different for every alter. I also speak human tongue, or what humans call it, English. Most animal alters struggle with English, even if they speak it. Animal alters are just as perplexed with humans as humans are with us.
Omg I’m so happy that the videos are coming back! I’ve missed everyone :) I love watching your videos i find your videos very helpful and help me understand more about DID
Thank you for giving me oportunity to learn a lot about DID and thank you for being so brave, after stumbling on a video randomly...all of the best wishes to all, stay strong
So happy to see the videos are coming back! They have given so much information and spread awareness to so many. You guys are truly inspiring, and I hope this whole situation ends soon. Sending all the love. ❤️
Thank you so much for all that you are doing in the DID systems. I don’t have DID but you are all amazing and it has helped me understand how you are all able to survive. You have help me think my mental health and PTSD is not my fault and that it is ok to keep living. Thank you for all you have all done.
This just popped up on my video feed. I haven't been watching for many months but I enjoy your videos. I believe you misspoke when you said "approaching 2,000" subscribers as I can see it's approaching TWO MILLION!!! Why yes please do a livestream to celebrate. All of you are amazing! Prayers and blessings now and in the new year!🙏❤ Happy New Year!✌😎
I appreciate these videos so much!! Thank you for all you’ve done and been doing for the past few years. I’m sorry that y’all have had such a frustrating and difficult time lately! I’m sending love and support and all that I can!!
I’m so happy the videos are coming back slowly! We all miss Chloe, but we still loved her when she became Nin after integrating with Nina, and I’m sure we’ll love Kya just as much when we get to see more of them ❤️. Much, Love, DissociaDID!
My words, exactly!
Much love to everybody 💞
not so slow considering there are three new videos at once!! x]
Oh wow it's been so long I had almost forgotten Nin was once Chloe and Nina
IM VERY HAPPY HAVENT SEEN HER VIDEO AND I DID LIKE IT :d
Nin wasn’t always there? Sorry I’m still a little confused with some of the stuff.
I’ve missed Sally’s voice. Her comforting energy transcends passed providing for the system. She calms us as well
She really has a caregiver/caretaker vibe to be
Is she South African ?

This is one of my favorite videos of yours because our system is mostly non-human and we’re so often misunderstood. So glad it’s back! ☺️
It is one of my favourite too! I'm interested in hearing about your system :)
@@SerenaGr Often alters take the form of something that makes the child feel safe, so if they were abused by a man they may split a woman as a caregiver or if they were abused a girl they may split a boy trauma holder to avoid getting too close to what happened. One of the main reasons systems can form mostly or entirely non-human alters is because we were abused or neglected by so many humans around us of every age range and gender (men, women, boys, girls, etc.) that the only type of “person” that wouldn’t cause cognitive dissonance were animals and fantasy creatures. I find that non-human dominated systems are most common in multi-perpetrator abuse where the child has no more trust for any humans. It also has a lot to do with being dehumanized which is also common in severe abuse, most people cannot commit severe abuse without dehumanizing their victim. It’s less painful to be dehumanized if you are an animal and are separate from everyone who is hurting you.
Will rewatch every upload! Stead fast support for your channel, it's taught me a lot and has greatly helped me as a writer. Much love from a Cupeño/Kupa Native American friend from across the pond. Love from turtle island!
I hope you're all doing okay, I'm sorry for all you've been through and the last year or so, you've been a trooper 💙
I have a friend who is a system: they have multiple alters who are angels. (Ive asked for permission to comment this) They are very much real and valid and just because they are not human does not mean they dont have their own feelings and lives. Thank you for everything you do dissociaDID
Yessss Re-Upload!!
You are a Inspiration to people like me, personally i don't have DID but, the fact that you're soo strong that you're not letting some random person stop you from doing what you do best which is raising awareness and making amazing content doing it.
Keep on going and know we all have your back ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm so happy for you that you were able to re-upload!! We will always support you . Good luck!
"We are nearing two thousand subscribers!" - Chloe
Wow, how far you have come and grown. So glad you are back and fighting! Keep up the great work!!!
Thank you so much Sally and Amira for explaining this complex topic so well!
our gatekeeper is a fox-like creature, and i think they formed that way becase as a child we needed to be a fox: hide, get things we needed in a sneaky way, and observe. Foxes are generally quiet and observant and also very smart. The gatekeeper mostly observes, so I guess it fits in a way.

Thank you for sharing your videos! I had a switch this morning (I tend to have them throughout the day). When I started writing my dark psychological fantasy series, I struggled to write logically, but intuitive writing brought out the different parts of me. Since then, I've discussed my issues with therapists. One said, "You seem to think of yourself as a novel." That made a lot of sense, as I focused on reading the most when my mom compared me to my brother who started reading the Bible at 3 years old. At four, I felt dumb for struggling to read, but my daddy, who passed away in 2006 (he was a truck driver, so absent, though he made sure we knew we had his love), told me it was okay that I took time to think. He seemed to see how I'd visualize what I read, or study the pictures on the pages.
The animal alters I seem to have: dragon, dogs, wolves, cats, tigers, mermagons (mermaid dragon), mermaids, and wolagons (wolf dragons). They come out in awkward times, usually when I'm excited or angry at something. For example, when I learned I had sand flea allergies in Iraq, I growled while running on the treadmill because my ankles itched so much! When that happened, the doctor gave me hydrocortizone cream. That didn't work, so I convinced him to give me a bottle of iropropyl alcohol. That worked.
Sometimes, the animal alters show me what I need in life more than logical thinking does. Sometimes I wonder if it's all fantasy, but my gut tells me the fantasy exists because the alters formed early in life. The lack of consistent life memories leads me to believe my fantasies are my realities. Living life is easier when I stop doubting myself and just learn.
It is so brave of you to allow us to see the switch on camera. It helps us to understand. At the same time, it is truly private and completely your choice (all of you involved) to decide if it's too private or you feel to vulnerable to show us.
Also, I appreciate the captions that explain when a switch is happening, when more than one alter is fronting, or even when a spider is distracting you!
As you've said, disassociation is a can be something private, so I'd say do as you feel comfortable and okay with. Other than that lots of love
Ahh sally is such a soothing and calming soul! I swear i can feel her kind and calming energy through videos and i love it! As long as your comfortable showing your switches on camera i dont mind if there left in the videos at all. Its part of the education so its all fine! Im glad to see you making videos again i missed you all lol!!😊😜❤
I'm glad you mentioned this in the video, Chloe, because I always feel as we're intruding into a very intimitate situation when you switch on camera. I myself (I'm aware of the others doing the same) tend to make it go unnoticed when there's a switch, simply because -except for my husband- I'm uncomfortable having other people notice it. I guess it's because of how I feel about it that I think I'm crossing a boundary when we see you and the others switch. It's silly, but I look away when I noticed one of you dissociating. I deeply appreciate your videos, however; I wish I could speak about this as freely as you do online. Love and light to you all ♥
I am glad this video is back. I never understood why some alter would be non human, but this video is super informative. Thanks a lot ❤️
Nice to meet you, Amira! Lots of love from all of the system’s supporters! ♥️
I miss your content so much and I'm so happy you are posting again. You help so many people. Thank you and take care. I hope you sort out your legal issues, nobody deserves to go through what you've been through. Just know your subscribers care for you as if you were part of our family!
You guys are so intelligent. There is so much to understand about DID, it fascinates me ,the mind is so powerful but i also feel a heavy heart because of why it exists in the first place. May god bless you on your journey through life!
Thanks for the reupload. You opened my eyes to so many things that I did not know or understand. It has helped me help others.. keep up the good work. You are needed
I truly find watching these videos and seeing all of your alters appear on screen is so interesting, the way the brain works to help protect you in later life from horrific events is beyond Amazing. Truly Amazing 🖤
so happy to see that your videos are coming back!!!! I hope you guys get all of them back in 2022
It breaks my heart to hear what some children have to deal with and I been watching the channel now for a bit and it’s really interesting I love all of you and anyone else with DID you are strong and I love you. Also loves and hugs to everyone ❤️❤️❤️
Fingers crossed this video stays up 🤞
We love your system and this channel so much never ever forget that ❤
I don't have DID but my dad was diagnosed with a split personality in 1980 something.
I don't think he has that though but we do both have Borderline Personality Disorder.
I find your explanations so fascinating and very clear.
My heart breaks for all of us who have had to experience such traumatic events that have landed us where we are today.
But, we are strong. All of us!
I have such a new understanding of DID and it helps me to bring even more compassion to the table.
I never understood the non human alters until now.
But wow, it all makes sense now.
Stay strong beautiful souls!!!
Love you all!!!
I'm so incredibly glad to see you uploading again. We've missed you all so much, and I want to say a huge welcome and we love you to Kya. I'm so so sorry things have been so rough for you lately, and I'm thinking of you and prãYiñg for justice in this situation. People sometimes think us survivors are easy targets - they vastly underestimate us. ❤️❤️
I'm so glad you're back. Please keep the switches in the video's to help us and people who have DID or their family and friend's of those with DID. Love y'all, keep posting and I'm looking forward to more of your content that helps so many other people.
Thank you for reuploading! It was like getting to see an old friend almost! It's also bittersweet to think about how much has changed since then. I hope you all are doing well.
awww! I've missed Sally! I am SO soo happy to see y'all reuploading these amazing videos. Thank you all for all your hard work and dedication to educating and helping. Sending so much love and support to everyone in your system. ❤️🥰❤️
We love you all and missed you so much! Thank you for helping find out what I had going on in my mind, well, "our" minds haha.
So if the host alter and another integrate and change their name, does that cause issues because the legal name stays the same as it was before the integration? Would you change the legal name? Im so happy youre getting your videos back!!!
I think they got asked that question before when Chloe and Nina integrated. Non said that Chloe will always be the name of the body and therefore also stay their legal name.
Usually a system will use the host alter's name for legal purposes, since legal name changes are expensive and involve a lot of paperwork. Integrations can happen over long or short periods of time, so it's important to allow that flexibility.
I believe in a video they said they use the body's legal name all the alters know it and use it when they need to
It depends. My name changed but we still go with our birth name as a legal name because it represents all of us
Yay reupload! I like seeing the switches and appreciate all the awesome educational material you all share with the world.
Glad that you are re uploading all the videos, please keep safe and I hope this stressing experience with the claims and court end soon, lots of love for you and all the sistem 🧡
I feel really honoured that all of you would trust us enough to share this very personal and privet moment with us. I don’t have D.I.D however I love learning about it and helping to spread the correct information.
I was kinda confused when Sally said "Chloe " and then after a bit I remembered.........this was a reupload of a removed video, lol, old or new the video is still great
You're right about the change of accent, you can really hear Sally's voice disappear into something very different that must be Amira! It sounds almost like a German accent, but I don't know anything about Amira so I'd love to learn more!
Apparently, Amira is Indian (like the country India).
I noticed both the accent and the speech pattern, which definitely seemed like the speech pattern of someone who doesn't necessarily speak English as a first language
I'm so glad that these videos have been re-uploaded :] They really helped me out with understanding what DID was
I feel sad that Sally didn't get to finish her video :( I wanted to hear her explanation of fictives (I'm not sure if that's how you spell it) this channel has been so informative. I'm glad I stumbled upon it some years ago. I felt like I was witnessing a very private moment during the switch to Chloe😳 but I want to thank the entirety of the dissoiaDID system for all the information I've acquired and I wish y'all nothing but the best (if you see this :) )
We’re so happy to see you guys finally back! You were a big help for us when we first realised we were a system. Thank you!
You know... I know this is for education and awareness on dissociative identity disorder.. But I also want to thank you because I find this very comforting as someone that has it too. We're very thankful. You're making us more comfortable about ourselves and truly, we appreciate all that you've down for everyone. Thank you so so much ❤❤❤
So much love for Sally and everyone in the DissociaDID system. Bringing in the new year with the system in my heart, I truly hope these videos will be around for a long time to come. Here's to 2022 💖🎉
Yay! It got re-uploaded! It really sucked what happened and this channel deserves so much better.
I'm so so glad to see one of your amazing videos! I started following just last year but I rushed to see all the previous video you had made up that time. I found them inspiring, delicate and an incredible way to open everybody to DID. Thank you for sharing so much and deciding to start your channel. Hope you're well and safe. Love from Italy 😊
I'm so glad there's a reupload! I've been following this channel for a few months and I sincerely hope everything will get back the way it was!
I’m so happy that most of your videos have returned! I can’t believe what you are going through right now. My heart is with you!!
It's heartbreaking to hear, what humanity is capable of. Thank's for the informative Video!
Glad to see you getting your videos back up! Sorry about the situation you've been put into this year.
I love seeing you guys taking back your channel! I hope the whole system is doing well and taking care of one another with how crazy everything has been! I miss everyone and I hope when the system is comfortable enough we can reconnect with the alters, I just wanna know how everyone has been during this time and if anyone has picked up new hobbies or interests.
so glad to see the videos are coming back! wishing all of you nothing but the best
I'm so glad you were able to reupload most of your videos from before! I don't personally have DID but I think that your videos have taught me so much and I'm very grateful for that! Much love to you all, DissociaDID!
Thank you for your dedication, thank you for teaching thousands of people! You are awesome, all of you.
OMG I'm so happy with your progress and I actually screamed when I saw you guys were able to upload!
Missing you and my heart is with you on this battle 💞
So happy to see some reuploads!!! Keep fighting the good fight..we’ll be here to stand behind you!
So much love to Sally, Amira, and Chloe once again
Love this video! Nice to see Chloe and Amira again ❤
DID is such an interesting phenomenon! Its so cool that some of you are willing to go on camera and talk about this so people can understand is better. I dont have DID myself but just from watching a few of your videos it sounds hard.
Also, im glad your making your way closer to recovery
I'm sorry that you're all having to deal with such a stressful time right now. It's wrong what that person is doing to you. But if it weren't for the drama, I never would have found this channel ( I found it through a somewhat random suggestion on my homepage for VangelinaSkov's video discussing the issue), and I'm so happy I did. Your videos are amazing, and through your bravery and vulnerability, you are helping to educate the world about DID, and teaching all of us how to be more empathetic towards those we perceive as different. Thank you, all of you. ❤️
SO GLAD u could reupload some of the videos! let's hope u recover them all
Glad to see you all getting videos reuploaded! Sending good vibes ❤️:D
So happy to see you all back! I wish you all the best, and my thoughts are with you !
I love seeing the switches. Even though some people will say it's fake🙄. If you think it's fake don't watch it. I love this channel. I don't know anyone around me who has DID so seeing people on RUclips and other social medias who do is really nice. Thank you for including the switches. I find it interesting to watch. ❤️❤️❤️
I found u all a week or 2 to 3 weeks ago, slowly catching up. Really love to meet all the alters, hoping for more!
Miss the intro music. Glad you are all back, hope you are all happy and healthy. Much love to you all!
I am crying right now, the videos are coming back, I feel so good.
You are my motivation, all alters.
My non-human alter only appeared much later in life, and I could only process some of my trauma thanks to him.
Not sure if anyone has this experience, the reference from my non-human alter was when I was like, 18? And then, he appeared. Wondering if someone could enlighten me, could it be my other alters who had those traumas and memories, and decided to pass it to him when he was created?
Happy to see that you are able to re upload old videos. I got this notification that a video was uploaded and my day was made. I missed your content. I hope you are all safe and well. Sending my love your way.
THANK YOU. As a person who is brand new to DID and knows nothing, your videos are informative and I'm very grateful for how you go into more detail on certain aspects. I also appreciate that some in the (your?) system are willing to show the switch.
I apologize in advance and would appreciate being corrected if I say anything wrong or insulting in any of my comments so I can learn and I hope you all are doing well during this new year. ❤
You explained it so clearly, everything makes perfect sense.
Big love from Italy you sweet smart strong girl!
I enjoyed watching this video even more than before. So happy for the re-upload! ♥️
This was such an interesting video! I wonder if when animal alters come to the front, do they get confused with their environment? Or are they aware they are in a human body? Do they speak any human tongue? They are so interesting, I'm quite curious I have to search more! Thank you so much for the video and you decide if you should keep the switches, personally I like them cause it gives another alter a chance to speak but I also understand it's a very personal thing so it is totally up to you guys! Lots of love ♥️♥️
Answering from the perspective of someone who's known systems with animal alters, it really depends on the system. In some systems animal alters are very animalistic, so they don't talk, they act feral and cannot be communicated with, whereas in other systems animal alters are very human in their behaviour and might only have a few traits that are from their animal side (e.g. liking being petted or taken on walks etc). I think with DID it's always so important to remember that every system is unique in how they present.
Amira apparently is a tiger!
I asked my half-human half-spider alter this question, here is their response:
Hi. It’s very confusing coming to the front, as you have to get used to this strange human world. Yes, I am aware that I’m in a human body, but it is different for every alter. I also speak human tongue, or what humans call it, English. Most animal alters struggle with English, even if they speak it. Animal alters are just as perplexed with humans as humans are with us.

Omg I’m so happy that the videos are coming back! I’ve missed everyone :) I love watching your videos i find your videos very helpful and help me understand more about DID
Thank you for giving me oportunity to learn a lot about DID and thank you for being so brave, after stumbling on a video randomly...all of the best wishes to all, stay strong
So happy to see the videos are coming back! They have given so much information and spread awareness to so many. You guys are truly inspiring, and I hope this whole situation ends soon. Sending all the love. ❤️
I like it when we see the switches it gives you a really clear difference between the way all of you talk and act In the body
sally makes me feel so safe
I'm happy to see the reuploads and I hope you're all doing ok and staying safe
Im so happy you are able to get some of your videos back! Thank you so much bc they help alot of people
Thank you so much for all that you are doing in the DID systems. I don’t have DID but you are all amazing and it has helped me understand how you are all able to survive. You have help me think my mental health and PTSD is not my fault and that it is ok to keep living. Thank you for all you have all done.
I love that this video has literature reference!
This just popped up on my video feed. I haven't been watching for many months but I enjoy your videos. I believe you misspoke when you said "approaching 2,000" subscribers as I can see it's approaching TWO MILLION!!! Why yes please do a livestream to celebrate. All of you are amazing! Prayers and blessings now and in the new year!🙏❤ Happy New Year!✌😎
This is a reupload actually
I love how Amira's accent comes through in Sally's speech, like lets take the two alters with the most soft comforting voices and combine it 😊
I appreciate these videos so much!! Thank you for all you’ve done and been doing for the past few years. I’m sorry that y’all have had such a frustrating and difficult time lately! I’m sending love and support and all that I can!!
Kya if you need any help financially when you’re taking that dude to court you should make a go fund me! Id love to support you!
I do like when you show any switches. It helps me understand living with DID better and DID itself
