Lmao imagine having aphantasia as a system. LMAO oof. I don't have full blown aphantasia but it's like if I'm not HARDCORE thinking about imagining something it disappears into darkness. Entering the inner world is a bit difficult for that reason
Us, a system with both an inner world and aphantasia: ‘What?’ 😂 Trying to explain how that works is always a mess. Like I don’t know man, I just live here. It’s like I have a text form description when I’m fronting, and can only see shit when I’m 100% see shit when I’m inside. Cocon is just. A vague sense of “there”.
As soon as Daniel said Black Butler. Sebastian, our fictive alter came co conscious with me. He still doesn’t know why he’s here but he’ll figure it out eventually😊 im sure of it
Blitzø, a couple of our alters have favorite colors like wine red and indigo and lime green! We know you'll do what you want, ultimately, but own what you love and there's no shame in it!
Thank you for your videos. I don't have DID, but learning about it from you and others was really helpful to articulate and process some of my emotional trauma. Learning about how brain can protect you from stuff etc gave me a language to talk about the part of me that kept holding the trauma and accumulating it over the years to protect me. It's not an alter, but there was definitely a barrier and for a long time I struggled to access it and connect to it (and if I did, I barely managed to remember anything afterwards, like it was just a distant dream). But with the knowledge about brains and trauma, I managed to visualize it, connect to it and eventually get through the barrier. Now I'm dealing with processing all the accumulated stuff that was kept there, which is another challenge, but one day at a time :). I hope this makes sense, I just wanted to tell you that your work is not important just because you educate about DID specifically, but because it can help people like me thanks to information you share, I was able to make a big step with my own mental health and I thank you for it!
Thanks a ton for answering my question everyone! And all these other questions too. I appreciate that your system is always willing to take time to explain and educate further, I'm learning a ton!
Thank you for making this! I just got to the part about not reading DID memoirs much because they can be triggering. We are just starting to explore DID community. It’s really nice not to feel alone, but so much representation is either problematic or too upsetting. Your channel feels validating and cozy while still being honest about the difficult realities of living as a system. It helps us feel more hopeful and more willing to explore resources and community.
It’s interesting that you say the littles aren’t children because I’ve seen so many online systems correct people and emphasize that littles are “actual children.” I’d be interested in seeing a video expanding on this, maybe talking about if there’s harm in the belief that they are actual children.
I definitely don’t think we’re knowledgeable enough to say if there’s harm in a system sheltering their littles like actual children. Only they know enough about their own system to make those decisions. But there IS harm in people projecting their ideas of what is suitable for children onto a system’s littles and shaming them if their behavior doesn’t line up with those ideas. You’re right, maybe I do need to make a video on this topic. -Wyn
We also have alters, mostly fictives, that look 2D in the inner world. I'm glad to know we're not the only system out there that has alters who appear like that. L and I actually used to appear in headspace as 2D but that changed after we watched the Weeb Chapel channel and we kind of took on the appearance and voices of the cosplayers. Everyone else who started out looking 2D still appears that way though to my knowledge. - Aki (formerly Luce)
The only Karen character I've known is Karen Bee from Bakemonogatari, and I find it interesting that Karen got her name from that. I really like that series and need to finish it. The last things I remember is the arc with Nadeko with white hair and Senjougahara at a cafe with Kaiki.
Daniel, you briefly mentioned Cavetown; do you have a favorite song of his? We don't listen to him much, but one of us has a special connection to a couple of his songs.
Do you have a favourite (or favourites) Monster High character? I love Draculaura's design and Frankie and Clawdeen are so fun but I think Cleo is my favourite (i like fictional mean girls lol).
My primary protector has such a hard time being out, he finds it extremely over stimulating. He was once stuck out for an entire day, he didn't come near the front for a while after that unless absolutely necessary.
Another great video! You've mentioned before playing and running D&D games, would you ever consider a video talking about your games and what building a campaign looks like for your system? Thanks!
But wait- i also love trashy animes and was looking forward to some recommendations 😂. But i get it at the same time lol. Great video btw! Im so glad yall are back 🥰
Several of us alters play DnD! It's hard because we are quite far from functional multiplicity, but it helps us have something to unite on. Our spouse is our DM. ❤
Yeah, it makes a lot of sense that Karen got y'all into Monster High From the dolls in the background you seem to mostly be into gen 3, but do y'all have any thoughts about Jackson and Holt from gen 1?
@@TheEntropySystem oh for sure! Protect your safety and your mental wellbeing. This was more for others who might be interested in reading a memoir. I will say, as a therapist who wants to be as educated as I can for my clients who are systems,appreciate her willingness to share and how she and her other parts communicate with the reader. and I will probably never read it again because of how triggering it was.
We are not going to judge you for whatever Anime you like. If anything you're just going to give us ideas for other Anime we might not have seen before. But I'm almost certain I've seen WAY worse Anime than you.
I don't believe you. As someone whose mental illness comes from decades of trauma, it's not a show I put on for other people. I am not a carnival attraction. I think this is appropriation. *I think you are roleplaying my hell for views.*
I understand why you’d feel that way. My disorder also comes from decades of trauma, and it’s also not a show I put on for other people. It’s my reality. However, part of the reality that I hate the most is that the world is so unaccepting of people like me. People think DID is scary, fake, or cringe. They don’t want to interact with you once they witness your symptoms. I have been making these videos for almost a decade of my life because I want to change people’s perspectives and make the world a little kinder for people with DID. If you feel like your DID is hell, you’re probably early on in your journey of connecting with your system. Learning to love and support all parts of yourself, learning to come together and work as a team, will come for you as well. I promise. It takes time and hard work, but the pain you’re feeling isn’t going to last forever. We wish you only goodness on your healing journey. -Wyn
@@TheEntropySystem @TheEntropySystem "and it’s also not a show I put on for other people." It literally is, or I wouldn't be commenting on it. I'm sorry, but nothing about this rings authentic to me. You seem well-meaning. I just don't believe you. It really is as simple as that. I probably can't put into words why not. I don't even have DID, but it's one of many disorders I ruled out before realizing I have a combo of C-PTSD, ADHD, and bipolar, aftr being raised by someone so insecure, I was forced to become whatever parrot, or therapist, or punching bag they needed me to be, to suit their every mood. I wished she'd made good on her threat to give me up for adoption. I wished my abuse was physical, because then that would have meant someone would have taken me away. I think if I had a prosthetic leg, I'll bet I could spot an actor sitting in a wheelchair, even if I couldn't say how. Maybe it's just that... I know that the trauma from my abuser nearly turned me into one myself. My defense mechanisms hurt other people. I'm *ashamed* of how they forced me to act. And if that's how other personalities are formed in DID, *I'm not seeing that level of scarring in you.* Maybe you've just healed far more than I have, in probably a decade less time. And that just so happens to coincide with a time period where many, many people online are faking trendy mental illnesses for views. Maybe this is a fun acting exercise for you and you mean no harm by it But I don't believe these are anything but roleplaying personas. Maybe I'm just a cold asshole, but I do not believe you.
I’m sorry you went through so much. I try to focus on the more mundane and positive parts of living with this disorder. There’s plenty of content that displays the trauma required to develop DID. I want to normalize what it looks like to live as a system, not share my trauma with the world. That would be too vulnerable and painful for me. Of course, with only positive snapshots in short videos you don’t see my anxiety attacks, years of therapy, my medication, my depressive episodes, and my meltdowns. That’s not what I want to show people. Also, and I say this gently, it’s not a good idea to fake claim people online for a disorder you don’t even have. Having a similar disorder doesn’t give you insight into the nuance of the disorder I have. I hope you’ll continue to educate yourself on DID even if it’s not from my content.
@@TheEntropySystem "Also, and I say this gently, it’s not a good idea to fake claim people online for a disorder you don’t even have." Irrelevant. Pain is pain, no matter the form. I've met people who have suffered, and I've met people who covet the attention that victims receive. There's similarities among similar types, regardless of the specific condition. And I'm not saying you have to weep on camera for me to believe you. I'm saying that, there is a depth that pain instills in a person. I don't see it in you. "Having a similar disorder doesn’t give you insight into the nuance of the disorder I have." It absolutely does. And you claiming otherwise is a massive red flag. Survivors of any kind know each other. Whenever I see someone saying that human empathy has limits, my suspicion of them goes through the roof. I may not know every detail of DID, but my instincts are going off like a siren.
@AlexReynard You can't understand what it's like to live with DID if you don't have it. I hate that you're posting this comment on this system's content specifically, when there are so many others that do less to be authentic about what DID can look like. Whether or not you believe them is your choice, but part of healing from trauma is finding out a way to cope where not everything you do has to throw back to that. They portray the fun parts of having DID because having this disorder is terrifying, and seeing someone find the joy only because they have been in the blood sweat and tears to make sense of it encourages the people who are new to it and so frightened of this diagnosis that it will be okay, if they simply try to understand. I spent 6 years diagnosed twice over, but so scared of it that I denied my own experience until one year ago, when I found the strength to attempt to heal. I wish I had known about Entropy all those years ago, because their videos are proof it can get better, and will; that the work is worth it. I'm sorry you went through what you did. No one deserves that. But you cannot assume someone else's trauma online, because not everyone else is as comfortable being forthcoming as you are. Sharing details of trauma had an area of effect in a community that consists entirely of severely traumatized people.

Have you heard their new music yet?

22:38 theres dead space 2 and 3 and on ps5 and a pre 1st person 1 on the wii.
i thought dead space and warhammer is too violent?...=system.
Jeni Haynes also has a book, The Girl in the Green Dress. Super graphic, though.
Leaving a comment for the algorithm
22:38 and every1 likes anime and video games too.
