Tom: “Men are affectionate with other men before they learn about homophobia.”
I’m so glad that Tom gets along so swimmingly with Ed, and it’s so nice to see how much he truly cares about this project as someone learning it all for the first time.
Same, until we learn someone, is into us. 😭
"Love is love whether you sleep with guys, girls, or anyone in between"
That's the most beautiful and true statement that speaks to my heart. Thank you
No. Society is just messed up.
Yahuahs child Okie doki
@@justme8841 no, you're just messed up.
@@justme8841 What? You might want to rephrase that. It sounded homophobic.
@@justme8841 What kind of person gets upset about other people being in love? Personally I prefer to celebrate other people's happiness rather than shoot it down.
Ed seems so sweet and attentive here. He is really paying attention and is being so warm to Tom. Love this and all of you!
We love you too! 😭💗 thank you xx
Pardon the intrusion, I know this isn't the point but.... I think we're close to name twins lol.
Maybe he is Gay for Tom
me: ok lets go to sleep i have a seminar at 9 in the morning. i need sleep.
MultiplicityAndMe system: no you dont
Also MultiplicityAndMe system:
...
Jamie: SEMINAR THO (sleep is important for your brain and learning! 🤓)
Same! 😂 I was on IG when I saw the story the video was up.
Same!!!!
Me right now~
Me every night since finding this channel
Tom: *talking*
Ed: Must protect tea
he's warming his hands, haha.
😅😅😅
@@20Unbelievable06 ohhhhh
It's crazy how much (I think) Tom looked like Ed when in character, and how much he looks nothing like him as himself. Guess that's the magic of makeup and costume. (Also sounds nothing like him in reality so props on the acting!)
Also his acting is amazing
tom: "is it ok if i swear?" after ed has already dropped a few f bombs, then when he does go to swear he says wank XD ah bless him.
mighty claw is “wank” considered a swear word?
@@emilylerman9028 i wouldn't consider it a swear word but i perhaps wouldn't say wank in front of my nan or someone lol. wank is like level 1 swear vs fuck being like level 10, if you will.
Hah! Damn that's precious
You could tell Tom was trying so hard not to offend anyone and trying to find the right words to say it was amazing and sweet❤
He seems so anxious! His body language is like he is star struck and doesn't know how to act.
Kathryn Williams ooo do you mean Ed or Tom?
@@MultiplicityAndMe Tom! But I see a few moments with Ed. Lots of hand fiddling!
I always feel a little star struck around the actor’s 🙈 but maybe that’s just me! -Jess
@@MultiplicityAndMe I would too! They're very talented!
Kathryn Williams yeh I thought that lol bless him. I actually thought he looked bit like Gaz tbh
Can’t stop picturing Tom going door to door spreading the gospel of DID 😂😂💕💕
do you have time to talk about our lords and saviours, multiplicity and me?
@@minabecke9455 if someone knocked on my door and said that, I wouldn't let them leave.
Have you heard of our almighty Switch and Swap ?
hello my name is elder price--
HELLO MY NAME IS ELDER TOM, I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITJ YOU THE MOST AMAZING BOOK **holds a book about DID**
"Men are affectionate with other men, before they discover homophobia." I think he just cracked it!
As a female alter in a male-bodied system, I always get a bit jealous when I see these videos with the actors portraying the alters. I wish I/we could be in a project like that, with actors/actresses playing the alters in our system. I imagine that would be a very surreal but amazing experience. And by the way, I think that Tom and the other actors do such an excellent job (based on what I've seen of the actual alters in your videos) of portraying you-all. I hope to see more of these videos in the future, they are really fascinating. A big thank you to yourselves and to all of the actors! - Leyna
You could look into family constellations or shadow work. Both are sort of like therapy improv. Other attendees help you negotiate your inner world by acting as your stand in.
Hi! I know this is a _very_ old comment, but do you happen to be Leyna as in the Leyna Jed MacKay is consulting with his work on Moon Knight? I remember reading an issue a few months ago with your name in the credits, haha. You have a very pretty name!
@@jellii Yep, that's me! I was very honored to have the opportunity to consult for Mr. MacKay, and help him to improve the representation of DID in comics. And I was so stoked that he actually mentioned me in Moon Knight # 30! Oh, and thanks for the compliment on my name! - Leyna
I’m only a few minutes in and freaking love Tom. He’s so polite and well spoken and just seems like such a good guy. (He’s also an incredible actor)
I love how well Tom and Ed get along. Ed seemed so relaxed here and so much of himself. Tom seemed so comfortable and relaxed. It's amazing to see the chemistry of who the alters are and the actors.
I love how he is so polite and speaks so carefully to refer to Ed and everyone else as their own person. It is never 'multiple personalities in one person' but multiple people in a collective. It just shows how much he respects all of them and how serious he takes all this. Just a stand up guy. They are all so great!
Ed seems intimidating at first but this video proves how much of a sweetheart he actually is...he deserves all the love
"Love is love, whether you sleep with guys or girls, or anyone in between." 😍
Oh my gosh, thank you! Xx
"I duno, but I've kinda gotten used to you in there now" 😂 What is this show of Tom's? It's brilliant
I feel like Tom having Ed's approval is freaking huge!! Given how hard Ed found it to agree to all the social media stuff, I expected he'd be a huge critic of this project.
This was amazing to watch, I can't wait for all the other's
The Scintilla Project it’s just his show reel 😂 we wish it was a series too!
I kinda want to watch it now, so sassy and funny 😂
I love all of the alters that Jess has introduced us to, but I respect ED the most simply because he’s cares so much. I don’t see him as someone who over reacts or takes things too seriously. I see him as any other human being who cares about his family with 100% of his heart and doesn’t want them to get hurt. He is protective of his system and I think that’s beautiful 💕
Oh my god, I am so star struck that you guys even noticed me. ☺️ I don’t have DID but I do understand going through trauma and having a mental illness/ struggles and your system and your videos have helped me so much. I have so much love and respect for you all! I hope you all are doing well and are your happiest selves. Sending positive thoughts your way. 💕
Oh ha I love that line,”I’ve got a prescription for you, it’s called manners”. He transform so well and think he’ll be perfect!
So glad I got to see this development of your film.
Why is Ed everything I aspire to be in life? Sassy, artsy, a bit dark, really gay....
Tom said something in this video that was something I've never thought about and it's been a huge eye opener for me about my DID.
It was when he said that even people without DID have a personality that is at least partially based on trauma or bad experiences. All of us in my system have been struggling with that concept,feeling less real because we weren't "born" like other people are. All of you continue to change our lives for the better, thank you so much 💜💙
Yeah something that I have wondered and I just put a comment on another video about. I wonder if there is this specific like tipping point or genetic anomaly that makes some people create a complete alter during trauma. Where others can experience the same trauma and not develop complete alters. But like I experienced trauma and was diagnosed with PTSD but I can see parts of my own personality that seem to come out during conflict, fear or anxiety that are so drastically different from my normal everyday personality and so extensive that I could see maybe if the trauma had continued I could see that part of me easily becoming a whole entire other personality possibly. So it's made me wonder if all kids experiencing trauma starts developing a different part of you and sometimes doesn't always go fully over the tipping point to an entire alter. It's just a thought. Maybe one day science will know what makes one person form DID but not another. But I think all people experiencing trauma develop a part of their personality to protect against it but some go farther and get full DID
I feel like this is the first time I'm actually seeing Tom in a video. He's usually so into character that I've always just seen him as Ed so this is I think the first time I've seen him out of character as himself.
I love that Ed felt so proud of the VR project and rightfully so! It was so well done and I’m hoping the Bandersnatch project is still in its early stages! I would love to see something Ed came up with come to TH-cam.
I agree this was a blessed use of 360 technology to enlighten people. Genious! Ps thanks.
Me: I love learning about DID, and how this system talks about it, it's so easy for me to understan-
...
...
Me: I s e e r a i n b o w f l a g
The gay! And is that Patton I spot!
I just noticed it-
Ed, i'm so happy you are feeling more comfortable with being in front of the camera. You are an amazing soul. Keep doing your best and hang in there. I respect you so much.
ed’s accent is my favorite thing ever
Is it weird for Ed to see like a sort of outer embodiment of himself?
Good q..i wondered that too for each person
Tom is gorgeous in his own right, but not as gorgeous as when he was portraying Ed! Oh Ed, you beautiful man you.
All the actors in the 360 were fantastic, but Tom as Ed was my favourite portrayal of them all. He came across as exactly the way I see Ed - a very real, 3 dimensional portrayal.
When Tom said his last answer I almost cried. I hope Ed knows this about himself :(
I'm currently studying social work and when taught about all different mental health disorders or issues, it sounds so scary and intense. But seeing your channel and knowing people in real life makes me see the reality and beauty and reason I want to work in mental health. Genuinely thank you for letting me continue to see the realness outside of all the education bs all of you 🥰
Same I waa never scared though what year are you in
Yeah that s great. But please keep in mind that the System of Jess is one with awesome communication and a fammily like relationship and stuff...it takes years to reach that Level of good communication... they are a becon of hope to the DID communety and us. But please do not assume that all the Systems work like that or are in such a good place allready...
You will need allot of patince and accaptance if you want to be there for people like us.
I wish you the Best ! :)

@@bestabothworldz2766 wdym?
i was about to say i cant wait for Ollie's, then i was like oh and Jake's for sure, but then Jamie's is gonna be so cool!!! ugh this is incredible
Soon as I read the title my face went “😮”
because I’ve been excited and waiting for this videooo👏🏽👏🏽😂
Seeing Ed smiling and laughing makes my day! Especially that part where that kid(?) runs by screaming gibberish and you both laugh! I'd love to meet you all someday.💖💖
This whole conversation is just so sweet and both of you are just so respectful and clearly listening to each other really well and it was just really lovely to watch
I am so confused, what is Ed protecting his tea from??
the cold
I think he was trying to keep it warm but idk
protect it from the cold most likely, i do it too, but i dont know if it actually does anything lol
Flies?
I think just warming his hands with the steam and heat
ed's voice is so satisfying to listen to
This is so lovely. I shed a lil tear cos i am happy for Ed. He was so misunderstood at first
I thought Tom made a wonderful Ed. He seemed to grasp Ed’s edge. But Ed is so multifaceted and I love Ed.
Ed is glowing in this video!! It warmed my heart so much to see such a great relationship between the actors! Tom is so respectful and well-educated on the topic!
I love how far Ed has come even from when I started to watch the channel last year. I love everyone in the system. I love you Ed I love you Jamie I love you Ollie I love you Jake and I love you Jess.
Ed is so warm and friendly
21:20 “hello” got me crying, oh I love you Ed😭😭
Tom, I agree with you about the awkwardness about calling it an illness. I feel awkwardness about calling the lads "characters" because they're obviously not.
Okay but Tom is a phenomenal actor
When Ed mentioned bring me the horizon I absolutely yelled out in happiness. 😭💕
I was so excited to watch this. Watching Ed and Tom interacting was so amazing to see. I really enjoyed learning how Ed felt about the performance and hearing how Tom approached handling showing who Ed is.
I was noticing how Ed held his hands on the cup, and I started to wonder something. Has Ed ever done pottery? If not I feel like he'd be really good at it.
Oh my days, I've missed Ed and the rest of the boys so much. I've been wondering what the boys reactions where when the met the actors. I honestly cannot wait to see everyone else's reactions too. 💜
it feels weird seeing the actors as themselves instead of the alters
Ed is totally radiant and seems so happy here! Love to see it :)
They look like they genuinely connect and I love that! Are the others doing this too? If so I can’t wait to see Ollie and his actor :0
I’m super glad that Ed and Jamie are so happy together but I’ve honestly got the biggest crush on Ed. He’s amazing
Tom is brilliant! I loved that within one cut, his coffee was GONE!
Thats probably why Ed’s protecting his tea 😂
This was awesome can’t wait to see the other actors meeting the altars they portrayed.
Two legends 🌼
I loved the 360 experience and livestream. And then seeing this solidifies that so much. Getting to see you both interact is so neat. And I'm so glad relationships formed out of that project. Sending love to everyone in the system, family, and all the actors. Hope to see more of these in the future. 💛🌻
I love that everyone was able to get to hear their voice through these actors and in this I love to say that it seems that Ed was able to speak his mind and have another person see his way of thinking and get another friend
Ed you’re the best. I feel like I relate to you more than the others and Tom is an awesome representation of you I think he did amazing. I hope you’re all doing really well. 💙
It's cool to see Ed be so connected and positive with Tom. It makes sense though, because since Tom really nailed the role, it shows he genuinely understands Ed.
This was so fascinating! I had been wondering what the boys thought of their actors. This was so lovely!
I love how close Tom and Ed are, they are a total best friend pair who just bullshit together and take the piss off each other and I can so believe they are brother from different families. And Ed is so genuinely happy and chuffed about how good Tom did, and Ed is so much warmer and protective and incredible now that we have seen so much more of him and his thinking. I thank you all for doing these projects and being so incredibly public in this, even as DID is a protection it's something that I have grown so comfortable thinking and talking about it now because of you all. Thank you for being the incredible people you are Ed, Jess, Jamie, Jake, Ollie, Gaz and Evee. I wish I could be your friend so much more now
We loved this. As a DID system that makes videos, it's awesome to see this and all of the other content involving the actors. Just like it's awesome to see the content on this channel in general 😊.
-Kit
its always so interesting to me how different jess' alters have entirely different voices than her own
much love for the whole fam & system
This was so heartwarming to watch!
Love this and all the people who portrayed all of you
this is such an interesting concept well done!
Wow I really love this! All the actors were amazing so this was doubly amazing.
I absolutely LOVE THIS!!!! You guys did so good, and I am so proud of you guys!!!
Simply brilliant both of you. Love it!
This is so beautiful to watch! I love them both and I love how they get along! Can't wait to hopefully see more of them and the other actors and alters :)
Awww, I loved seeing Tom and Ed have a great conversation, and that Ed really liked the project. I think it's about as close as us singletons will get to knowing what it feels like to have DID and a head full of alters/headmates. I haven't watched all your videos with the actors, but have you thought about trying to simulate what being dissociated and switching feels like from the perspective of one alter? Maybe what the amnesia etc felt like before you knew what it was and were diagnosed?
I dissociate sometimes, and would visualise it like a hazy fog, or like when someone has an outer body experience in movies/shows, where the sound and visuals get more distant. Or just that "not real" feeling of not knowing if something is a story you heard/watched, something you dreamed, something someone told you, something you witnessed, or something that actually happened to you. Doesn't help when my antidepressant gives me vivid dreams where I do somewhat realistic things like my day job or shopping or walking around the same house I've never been to.
Hearing you both talk about Netflix, I'm overwhelmed thinking about how Jess and the boys would all have their own account on Netflix, and then co-watching the shows more than one alter likes, and the arguments about who gets to watch what and who's watched ahead so you're not all up to the same episode :O But hey, I get overwhelmed just trying to choose something for my singleton self to watch so I dunno.
Love you Ed! This was probably hard for you but this was amazing to see and Tom did such a good job. Thank you.
ThIS IS EVERYTHINGGGG ❤ It's so nice to see you guys hang out, this just seems like a good time!
Thank you for the video!
Loved it! And the snippet of Tom's other work. ☺
Love seeing you, Ed!
I really enjoyed this video! Looking forward to videos of the other alters meeting their actors!
Lovely! Always enjoy a Ed video
🤯 such a great idea!!!!! Thoroughly enjoyed and watching Tom and Ed. Mine is totally blown...... 👏🏻
Love love love this. Wonderful job all of you. Loved the project love learning more about DID and every person in your system as well as the actors that have been playing you. Keep up the fantastic work. You’re all amazing strong people. ❤️
This is just so incredible and I am so amazed how well it came together. They all did phenomenal and I’m captivated by how beautiful they all are.
Ed has grown so much! I am so proud of him here. He seems so comfortable.
Thank you, Tom, and all the actors who work hard to bring multiplicity to life. I am getting a lot of new insights from these videos during a very rocky time in my life. 💝
I wanted this video to happen sooooooooooo bad!! I’ve watched this video 3 times already; that’s how excited I am!
It would be amazing if a movie was created about ur life. Your alters r so supporting and I believe it would drain some of that unwanted stigma from previous films xx
This was f*cking dope to watch! So lovely to hear Tom and Ed's conversation, and the way they can joke and just be chill. My alters and i can't wait for the other videos like this!
Ooh I’m excited for the others. Especially Jake, it’d be interesting to hear him talk more about acting!
You and your alters are beyond brave for doing all this to educate people. You are truly amazing.
seeing Ed being comfortable with Tom and them getting along as well as I imagined is so incredibly wonderful!
This 👏🏻is 👏🏻 Growth 👏🏻❤
And I'm here for it 😭😭❤
I love seeing the two of you together and talking. It's like sitting back watching a couple of friends having a conversation and you don't want to interrupt because they're chatting so well! Love you guys!
I realize this video was posted like 7 months ago, however I had to say thank you to y'all your channel has really helped me understand some of the people I know who have DID better even tho I only discovered this channel a couple hours ago while trying to calm down enough to sleep which led to me down a rabbit hole which led me here. Thanks again.
I have such a soft spot for Ed. Seeing him so relaxed and having so much fun, and he and Tom seem like they've got a really great bond💖💖💖
Loved this so much for us and for Ed. Everything just seems so chill and laid back and I love seeing that. So happy for Ed! Tom, you’re an amazing actor don’t criticize yourself too hard!
Thank you so much!! This was lovely to watch and see your interaction as real people beyond the scripts. Tom is simply lovely and I love that Ed and him seem to get on great XD
*Edit:* Ed has amazing taste in music and we must all follow his lead 🎶
This puts such a huge smile on my face
I love LOVE this video because I feel like we get to see a little bit more of Ed in his comfort zone or at least closer to it. I have always really related to Ed in the fiercely protective kind of way. I am so happy he enjoyed the inner space project it makes my heart happy knowing he likes the outcome
as someone with osdd its super nice to see someone talk so organically and truthfully about being a system. thank you all for all of your great work!
Brilliant interview guys ❤️
This has made my week! I've had a terrible week but everyones updates and this video has kept me really happy. Thank you! ❤
Shae is Bored I hope that next week is better for you lovely ❤️
