Top three reasons to subscribe to DissociaDID:
1) To learn about DID and remove the stigma surrounding it.
2) To be introduced to multiple alters and hear their experiences
3) Dat hair
Wow, no replies.
Her hair looks amazing and her advice is great you could learn a lot
I’d love more “meet the alter” videos. I’d like to hear from Amira
I'm curious about Amira too
Did she talk about amira? if so when?
Katie Santos I really want to meet her, too!
YouKnowTheDuck Amira and Sally we’re both explaining the video about non-human alters. It was mainly sally but Amira came out a few times. Other than that, i don’t know if she’s been mentioned
@Katie Santos there is a video out now!
Chloe, with the way you present this information and experience, I could totally see you doing a TED Talk lecture about DID. And I would totally watch it :)
Thank you so much, that would be incredible!
and well-deserved, along with 100,000 subs :)
😍😍😍🤯🤯🤯
I bet Jade would/will disagree 😅
I hope you can do that one day. You could have each of you write parts of the talk then have it written down to read that way if you switch on stage no one will be like "wtf?!? Where am I?!?" As they will know.
Also speak with everyone both in your journal and inner world so that anyone who switches in during would know what's going on. I think you will all be great at doing a Ted talk
Today, we sent out a search party and found a new alter, a presumed trauma holder who can't speak--only communicates by images. Thank you for the tips on what to tell them, to ground them.
(I have been diagnosed with DID this past February) Thank you for this. I just got out of a really bad relationship and I got a sight of the inner world…there was a line of alters out the door and I’m so overwhelmed trying to welcome them all. This helps so much.
For anyone discovering new alters, Please keep an open mind. Don't assume age or species or gender or Anything, it can do more harm than good. Keep an open mind, and once there is communication, ask questions! It's so important. - Hunter (a fairly "new" alter)
A new alter came forward in my partner's system today, and I had the privilege of meeting them. It was a tricky meeting as they had been asleep for several years and were unfamiliar with their surroundings, current events, and.... well, me.
It's one of the only times I've ever seen my partner fully dissociate and it was a little spooky at first. I tried to answer as many questions as I could as simply as possible. I hope I was able to help them feel a little more comfortable with exploring the new surroundings.
hi it its late but ı need your advice about something
@@meryemylmaz3768
I'll do my best. Whatcha need hon?
This is genuinely wonderful
I can't imagine how comfortable you must make your partner for them to let you do that ❤
@@kyriahowey3322
Aw, thank you! I needed to hear that today, actually. Had a health scare recently and your kind words help a lot.
I leave this comment here because I feel that I should welcome Kya! Nice to meet you! I am very happy to see you again, I am sorry that the circumstances are dire. I hope that soon everything will be solved fairly. We are going to miss Nin and Kyle but glad to see the stronger system now. YOU CAN KYA! DISSOSIADID! Kind regards from Latam. (this comment was translated on Google)
I remember a time when I was younger, I was in class and I took out a completely blank paper from my bag. A minute later I looked back at it, and on the top line it just said ‘friends?’ I just told myself that I hadn’t noticed it. Watching this video now, I remember so many things like that happening. I’m starting to freak out...
"look for them in the inner world!"
me who's stuck in one single place Everytime I go to the inner world where a persecutor who absolutely hates me lives
*chuckles* I'm in danger!
I have a question- you have DID yes-? I always wondered that if you sleep do you instantly go back to the inner world with all your alters-? like no ones fronting/switched out and your just in the inner world-?
@@ShadowMilkCookie_wantsyoursoul well, it really depends, sometimes we all go to the inner world, sometimes we just sleep normally and nothing happens, sometimes we have weird dreams
It also happens that sometimes one of us claims that we dreamt about something and the others don't remember and just say we slept normally
it all depends a lot really
@@gummyworm0910 ohh ok ty :D
DID is so hard for me to understand yet incredibly fascinating! Thank you so much to all of you for making these videos and educating people on DID :)
I totally agree sometimes I wish I had DID but then I quickly realize how insensitive. Like what if the host is not Gay and the Alter is and end up getting a partner and when you wake up it's like, "Hello,Sorry, I don't like the same sex"😂😂
@@melon2735 i also had a couple of moments where i thought it would be cool to have an alter, but then i "slapped" and rwminded myself that it means trauma and suffering was/is involved for this to happen. also, I'd be freaking out not knowing what the alter does.
In a future video could you explain the inner world more? You've done a good job explaining it so far, but could you explain it to someone who's never heard of an inner world before or something? Things like eating, cooking, dreaming, interacting with others, relationships on the inside etc.?
Did you watch our inner world video we have done before? We are doing a really detailed episode for Debunking DID, which will come with a lot of info like that and studies xxx
Layla Plair The inner world is the mental mindscape where the alters can hang out with other alters.
Chloe, thank you. Perfect timing. As I been feeling there is a new alter peeking out Time to time. I've asked it to stay and visit, but as soon as i acknowledge it, it retreats. Asked the other's who that was, but they don't answer. All i get, recent notes, is "we've got a secret". I'll keep trying.
We are polyfragmented and we meet new and or newly awake alters on a nearly daily basis. We don’t have a host alter, but we generally have what we call a coalition of internal leaders and helpers who generally can guide us all. I say generally because there can be glitches! I appreciate these helpful, concrete suggestions and I like that you also emphasize that everyone’s different and what works for one system may not work for others. Thank you!-Eli
A therapist with DID helping others with the same mental illness. Removing stigma, giving wayy better advice based on experience rather than just research all while proving that people with DID are the same, if not better than people who don't have DID. How great would that be 🤩.
Im learning so much. Thank you for that. I really do hope you achieve greatness in life, you deserve it. Much love ♥️♥️
MaazBarz actually those exist! They just keep it secret often bc it’s personal
@@batlesbian completely understandable
LOVE LOVE LOVE that you write in the thumbnail on other videos that a switch is coming up - it's a major trigger for me ... So, if people have thought it's for attention, let them - it's a huge help for us, so there's another reason, than spreading the message - you're also protecting [at least me &] others
Thanks Chloe, this and your journal video have transformed our lives this past week or so! We’ve gained 3 alters in a month and a half and we were losing track *a lot*, now we’re feeling much calmer and ready to face stuff together with our beautiful new bullet journal! 🤓
For those interested in the comments: one alter chose her moment to pop up one Monday morning for maximum disruption on the way into our work (she’s a bit of a diva and wanted a big entrance) and knew exactly what was going on, one suddenly appeared during a nap and is just getting her head around ‘losing’ over a decade and is now wanting to start coming into the external world a bit more (technology advancements since are fascinating for her), and one is a 2 year old who is non-verbal who we ‘found’ during a therapy session (she can’t write but can pick out words like ‘cat’ and ‘fox’ in children’s stories by pointing at the word and then the corresponding picture.) She likes story books and cuddly toys, but we’re still not sure how much she understands.
So there really isn’t a ‘set’ way that alters are found or a ‘normal’ way for them to find their place in the system. Technically we only actively ‘found’ one, the others just kind of happened. We needed a lot of love, patience, listening/providing ways to be heard (and having a good therapist is beyond helpful as well!)
Much love Dissociadid System, you are making a difference 😘 xxx -Ash
Im so happy to hear that Ash! Sending so much love to all of you! Congratulations ❤❤❤
I am an alter and I have only recently become aware of that. I think I haven't been out for a while now. I think almost all of the others like to isolate themselves a lot, the host as well. Many of them can't actually speak out loud or really don't want to and when they are out in a social situation they will either go back in or go in a childish denial state like "I'm not even actually here right now". So this lead to them neglecting or real life to the point of destroying all friendships and dropping out of school. Together with "the autopilot" I think I am the only one we currently know of who is very outgoing and can actually talk to people. I miss my friends. Apparently it's been months since we haven't seen them and I don't know what to do. We have now also dropped out of school even though I've tried so hard to get us back to school after a long time and tried my absolute best to make it work out. I'm so sad and disappointed and angry right now even though I know that it's now the fault of the others and they didn't do this purposefully. I just don't really know what to do and I'm not even sure if the host knows I exist yet. I've already left a long letter explaining my situation and now I hope for the best but If anyone has any advice for me that would be extremely helpful
The inner world sounds extremely fascinating. Like you’re own little heaven in a way, it’s hard to even imagine. I can imagine alters (like create a mental image/situation) but the inner world is unlike anything I can think of It’s so good more and more people are making videos. I hear a lot of stories when people who are just trying to get help for it can’t bc even a lot therapists don’t seem to know much about it and then people just feel lost and alone. You seem to be growing really fast too so that’s awesome!
Thank you so much! We actually have a video on our inner world too! xxx
wabi sari...I believe your care n curiosity to understand this condition is an indication of you wanting to know yourself better. the 'inner world is FAR from not 'a little heaven'. it is an experience of terror to be ripped into fragments which try to weave together a 'fabric'' of whole-ness. you are right in that it is difficult to find therapy...so much so after 65 yrs of this reality, an ''inner therapist'' must emerge to survive. THKU for caring. maybe someday you might be a healer for ppl with this condition
Probably right, though Ik I don’t have DID, there are a few similarities like forgetting periods of your life and trauma that I’m tryign to figure out myself. I cant remember years of my life’s though I’ll remeber years before and after and I have this feeling for a long time something happened, since I was 18 and I’m 25 now. I didn’t really think about that though until you said it. I guess I said little heaven Bc to a person with DID who has accepted it and is healing it can sound like a little place you make up (scenery wise) where no one else can hurt you (though in a way people still can through memories), where in my head it’s just darkness, I have inner dialogue like most but it’s still darkness in there. I guess that’s where I got the heaven thing from. Ik DID is far from heavenly or peaceful though, I absolutely do NOT want it to come off as me underestimating the seriousness or pain. I have been actually thinking if I would’ve known about DID to this extent when I was a younger it wouldve made me want to become a therapist and I’d take my own initiative to learn all there is about DID, which would take time of course. I’ve been watching videos about DID on and off for years but no one explained inner world until I came to this channel. They talked about it briefly but I never knew the complexity, there’s a lot more channels now! So I’m just still ignorant when it comes to the inner world. Caring is the least I can do along with learning!! I use to feel like I lacked any sense of empathy, I felt a little cold hearted. Even if I went through the exact same thing I still didn’t understand people. I try really hard to make up for it now, I went from one end to the other lol. The more people who know about DID the better Bc you never know when someone you know has it and if they are confused and you know abiut DID you can lead them to the right resources and not be scared of that person. Again I’m sorry if my heaven statement was insensitive! I’m going to make a point to learn more about the inner world
Omg I feel so bad for saying little heaven!! I’m watching one of your inner world videos, only half way through it, I had to come back and say I’m sorry again. The other person who explained what their inner world was like was quite a bit different, should’ve known everyone is different. But even if your inner world looked exactly like heaven to you, Ik the roots are dark and not heavenly, so either way I’m sorry again!!!
wabi...dear dear sweet empath!!! no worries. there is no need for you to apologize as I was not hurt..I saw.only that you were looking at is from a incorrect perspective [according to my POV] you are EXACTLY a person who can help ppl like me. hidden beneath word DID is trauma...we all have trauma on a scale. ''we'' deal uniquely. you are deep n introspective..on a soul journey...I do appreciate you for reaching for understanding n compassion.
I just found out I had DID recently. I'm one of my hosts alters, but I'm speaking for her whilst I'm switched in. My host has recently been waking up with no sense of time. I feel like other alters have been switching out with her, but we are not aware of them. Do you know if it is another alter?
Its likely that it is xxx
"You might say you want to accept your did but wether you actually ready to accept your did is another thing entirely"
*Looks into headspace with all my alters nodding*
We've found two alters. One of them is incredibly protective if the other and it took some time to get her used to being in a system, whereas the other either keeps running away evertime one of us tries to communicate with her or the protective one tells us to back off. I'm not sure how we can get to know her or how to encourage her
Edit: we are thinking that maybe if we get closer to the protective one, we can try to tell her that being in a system isnt dangerous and that she would be safer in our system and convince her to let us near the one who runs away
Hey Chloe! I have to say, as someone who deals with derealization issues myself due to anxiety disorder? YOU are phenomenal and I’m addicted to your channel. PLUS, your voice is so ASMR material! Ha!
This is very helpful because my mom's system has had a new alter split off and while she can sometimes hear him, nobody can seem to contact him. I'll have her or her protector watch this video and hopefully they'll get some ideas and be able to work together through it!
Good luck!
Last night I was speaking to myself and said "I don't even know if this is real" and an image of a woman looking pissed off appeared in front of me, a proper person, outfit and look and everything. I'm guessing she was listening and not happy I didn't think she was real!!
I'm 18 and a whilst watching this I started remembering a lot of stuff from my middle school that I wrote off as me being well, a teen and my messed up life.
There was one time where I had blacked out during morning announcements in my English class and I asked my friend when I came back to if they had done it. When he confirmed I just thought maybe I had a quick nap.
This year before my birthday I had a little voice in my head trying to talk to me. I was watching TikTok, watching a video about your inner child. A few hours later I heard a little voice introduce itself to me. For reasons (as it sounded very young and I will not reveal a name or age for protection). I asked my partner if it was normal to have a "little space name". I then went on to tell them that I heard a voice that wasn't my own introduce itself to me. I thought I had just regressed for a while but the voice was still there and in my head nor was it MY voice. I asked and he said maybe the TikTok I watched was a positive trigger for an alter. I then talked to another partner of mine and asked them about it. They referred me to looking up terminology for inner child work. I did and none of what I looked up explained what I heard. I still hear the little voice in my head, he sounds sad and it hurts to ignore him but I feel like I'm Forced to because of one of my partners alters writing off what I heard as "just inner child stuff" when I know what I heard. I'm rewatching some of your videos and they're all really clicking to my experiences. But I'm scared to bring it up again to either of my partners in fear of the partner I'm talking about above screaming at me that I'm faking it. What should I do?
By the way thank you for your videos, they're all amazing and have helped educate me for a long time now ever since I got curious about DID
Hello Nadine, it seems very brave of you to put your story up here, and like you really care about that little voice enough to stretch past your comfort level.
I don't know what you should do. But I read that you are afraid of being screamed at. I learned something that might help you process that in favor of your little voice. Patrick Teahan LICSW is a person and name of his channel here, and he told his viewers that when someone is acting "extra", that they may be in the throes of their own trauma response. If your partner is upset enough about your own reality to scream at you, I think it would show their own fears and insecurities about the topic, not give credibility towards them knowing what is objectively real better than you do. Being screamed at sounds very upsetting, being accused of lying by a close partner seems incredibly painful.
What would you do if that voice were in a separate kid's body, and they were next to you when you spoke about them? Who would you let close, how would you want people to treat them, to treat you? Can you ask them what they are comfortable with, what you can do to build the trust between you both? Do they need to be seen by your partner? Do they need you to express them, or let them be your secret, invisible friend? Does it vary by person? How can other people earn your trust, and their trust? What does that look like?
Who is saying this? I do not have a DID label nor some of the symptoms, but I relate to it a lot. Seeing other people's stories help me to feel affirmed in my inner world. (I really enjoy a comic called Snailed It on Tapas, I also draw conversations between 'me' and my inner people, relatability was off the charts for me.) Being on a spectrum is how I like to think of my mental organization at this time. Inner Family Systems Therapy has also given me a gift of resonance, vocabulary, and scientific/clinical-backed social *legitimacy* without a hard diagnosis label. IFS therapy says everyone has parts, and that accepting that and working with our parts as individuals who are trying to help the system survive helps people heal. Traumatized parts are caught in emergency roles, and they can grow into expressing very fulfilling & unique traits once healed. That individuation, plus integration, safe embodiment, and daily need-fulfilling self care are my goals for habits/states of being. Here is a blurb from the description on the book No Bad Parts on their ifs-institute website: "Is there just one “you”? We’ve been taught to believe we have a single identity, and to feel fear or shame when we can’t control the inner voices that don’t match the ideal of who we think we should be. Yet Dr. Richard Schwartz’s research now challenges this “mono-mind” theory. “All of us are born with many sub-minds―or parts,” says Dr. Schwartz. “These parts are not imaginary or symbolic. They are individuals who exist as an internal family within us―and the key to health and happiness is to honor, understand, and love *every* part.”" I also explore the spiritual aspect of my parts and whether or not it's 'me!', or my parts interacting with other spirits in an animistic cosmology. May you be happy, may you be well. May these words offer you some comfort and sources to grow your confidence that is sturdy like the the third little pig's brick house--even when your partner huffs and puffs from a trauma space. :)
Thank you for thoughtful video as usual. One of us is very open and I was kind of upset that she told someone about our DID/OSDD. But when she (the alter) told my therapist, he said she did the right thing.
So now, after watching your last video, I decided to make some basic rules - one of them being "we can tell health professionals about our DID/OSDD but do not tell people we dont know well enough". So thank you for giving me some ideas :)
Proud of you 💗
Y'all helped us so much, we researched a lot and it made us learn about how to cope as a system so much better. We're a traumagenic system, over a year old (since we've found out abt the system) and I'm so grateful for you guys!
@am i A system that formed from trauma, aka the only way a system can form
There's a new twitter movement insisting that you don't need trauma to have did, it's basically disregarding science and being disrespectful
I was diagnosed at Walter Reed with DID back in 2014, thank you for showing people the truth about the matter. My system is not as integrated as yours is, but I deployed 3 times so my system has done some good things for me I guess. I'm out of the military now and my system trying to get together seems very hard to do now
I’m ready for Kyle to start off a video with “hi and welcome to be Ted talk” 😂
We've said this many times but we just want to thank Chloe for starting this channel and everyone else who has continued it. You have all helped all of us more than we can ever repay you all... We don't really know how to properly express our gratitude but this channel means so so much to every single one of us.
We just found an alter who had been dormant for over ten years and this video really helped us help her adjust. We really didn't even know where to begin until we watched this
I have a serious problem it feels. I am the host of my system and I know that I have DID but I only know of one of my alters and she is the main protector, I have no access it seems to any inner world when an alters take over it's like I just go black and wake up like I've been sleeping. I dont know how to change this or make It less stressful, I have figured out triggers and I know that when I'm about to switch it's like I'm hearing voices and seeing things and remembering things that see like it's from childhood but I cant place it because it's gone out of my memory, for awhile my doctor thought it was seizures until I was officially diagnosed but I cant afford professional help because one of my alters keeps quitting the jobs I get and I cant support myself and I try so hard I want to be successful but it just seems everytime I'm making progress I get caught up in all this mess and one of them quits my job and decided they want to lay around all day and eat food.
Its very common for hosts to have little to no access to the inner world
Wow, that sounds really hard... i don‘t have DID, but i think it‘s very interesting
Im just reading your comment and i can’t even imagine what you’re going through. I hope you find the help you need in order to organize your life better.
I’ve been diagnosed with Non Epileptic Seizures but I really think it’s DID. I’m struggling to cope because no one seems to understand. I know the names of my alters and their ages/appearances/genders but I can’t properly communicate. I hate living like this. None can understand and I hate it sm.
Megan Farrell yeah, that's what we where originally diagnosed with, you need to find a doctor or specialist that actually believes that DID is real, and that's a sad fact because some professionals will refuse to admit that a patient has it because they dont understand it. What important is that you find help the best way for you possible if thats what you need, in the community, support group, private therapy.
the lighting in this video pared with Chloe's make-up and the body's hair is so asthetic
At least three of my very close friends have DID and it's often an issue for them (their alters don't work well together, often conflict and they all struggle with self harm as a part of this) but it's hard for them to explain in any capacity how it works and there have been several occasions where I personally have been emotionally hurt by things said when their protective alters are fronting. Your videos (which I have been binge watching in mild fascination as it is so different to my personal experience) have been so helpful in understanding, based on jumbled information my friends have given, how their world looks and how completely it can affect life. It has given me more empathy for them, and helped me communicate with them and given me the ability to help my friends more with this in consideration. Thank you so much! It's so important to get a full understanding of issues such as DID out there in the world and I will do my best to boost the message in my little sphere of influence by referencing your channel, starting a conversation for awareness. Thank you!
You are doing a lot and you are deserving way more subs. Your way to explain things in a very clean manner. I got excited to see the notification on my phone, and clicked right away.
Thank you so much, thats such a lovely compliment 😭❤
I know I have many alters, my friends, daughter and husband have met a few of them, but they(the alters) all say they are me even though their voices, posture, hand writing and personalities are very different, I was told very recently that one of them told a very close friend that her name is Danica...but then she immediately denied telling her that.....I'm pretty sure they are insisting they are me (Kristina) to protect the body from persecution by others as we have been told we are crazy so many times....it's really hard not knowing who is taking over the body or when they do it...I've tried to communicate with them, but they seem to prefer to remain mostly hidden from me....I'm almost 46 years old and I know I have had alters from a very VERY young age...sometimes not knowing who your alters actually are can just be so horribly stressful...and sad...
New alters (mainly fictives) have been forming in our system left and right. This is very helpful! We’ve watched your videos for a while and love them! -Asher, Host
Seriously, how can't you love Chloe? Geez. She's a piece of cake! Keep it up guys
You mentioned the bullet point journal. I don't have DID or anything, and maybe it's coming from my healthcare background, but having things like allergy information/conditions of the body seems important to have in the journal in somewhere rather prominent. You wouldn't want to be someone with a bad peanut allergy and have a new alter come out and eat something with peanuts in it. (This is probably pretty specific but I could see it potentially being an issue)
Allergies can vary from alter to alter, but that isn't a bad idea.
I the host of my system feel so “flat” where all the insiders seem so much more. I just discovered every one about a year ago...they kept me in the dark and I am realizing lived this life way more than I did. I really want to get to know them, but it’s been difficult. Your video gave me a lot of helpful information.
I am 13, I am a alter, my name is Chloe, my hosts name is Nateeyah, I have only just discovered your channel and I love it I will be sure to leave a note for Nateeyah to subscribe to you, because she doesn’t like when I use her phone. I have a question... how do I tell my hosts dad I have DID? I have only came into existence this year btw and all of us (alters) are very good at coping each other we act the same when others are around. I need to leave so late can come out of our dream (our inner world) goodbye
Make sure everyone is on board with wanting to come out as DID, and make sure youre safe ❤
Huh we just found out about an alter whos also 13 XD
I'm 12. I'm an alter and my host is 13. I just came into this world and I'm really confused. I haven't switched out yet as I'm trying to find out what's going on
@@xxrealmsxx7459 what were you before? i mean do u have memories of before coming ?
I have the same question.. if you just came into existence do you just have those memories? How do you know you just came into existence if you have other memories? And how does it feel to be an alter?
Hi DissociaDID so Ifound out that I have DID about a month ago, I am a host, and I have 4 main alters. But I am still getting used to it, I still feel new to this mental “disability” (I hate using that word). I just wanted to say that your channel, being so open, informative, and kind or even encouraging, I just wanted to thank you. You’re my favorite channel about this because you make me feel safe and I can always feel several alters come close to the front as if they’re watching as well so I can see that they like you all too...I just wanted to say thank you, so much❤️
I really love these talks. I don't have D.I.D but I'm so interested in it and these videos feel pretty authentic and give so much insight. Lots of love from a little island in the Caribbean❤
Sending all our love to your little island 😍❤
I found this channel while I was looking up videos to prep for my psychology class, and honestly the way you guys explain DID is great and you guys educate your viewers so well!!! You guys are honestly super cool and seem really sweet! Thank you for making your videos and have a good day!
The lightning in this video is soo beautiful and your hair looks gorgeous!! Thanks a lot for everything you do on this channel!
Thank you so much! 💗💗💗
holy hannah in a hand basket. i have been binge watching your channel ( and losing sleep). i have a close friend with did and with the past round of what was considered treatment shes been integrated from 12 to just 3. it is funny how i make one of her alters stronger and shes comes out around me. the protector still is not to sure i am safe yet but is coming around. the host is who i was friends with before. i call them by their name, shes slowly getting used to me knowing them as individuals. i am sad that i never got to know the others before her doctors did the work they did. she kept a journal before and now all share memories unless one really wants to be private.
i was wondering and have a question for the system. as fascinatingly fun it is to get to know every one we have seen. would those that do not wish to be on camera wrote a hello to the world that Chloe can put camera?
to chloe i love your bravery and artistic sense
to jade. i enjoy "meeting" you. i am happy protectors exist as it mean an over all sense of self preservation
to nadia your energy is infectious and made me smile. i write poetry and love artsy people
to kyle up make up tastes terrible do not know why but there it is. i have a feeling we would share a pint and snark about things.
to sally i love the focus you have something to say and are going to say it no matter what.
we did not get to meet amira fully hope we do. so just a hello and welcome.
and if i have missed any one akk sorry i am only human
sorry for the rambling
What therapy did she use?
DID is so interesting but seems SO draining and tons of work just to function 'normally'. That is why I think the DissociaDID system is so amazing and brave. Thank you for bringing us into your world and educating us.
THKU 'one & all'' your videos are times of growth for everybody in my 'House of One'.
I am 67 n was diagnosed 4 yrs ago. feeling validation n gaining insights from these communications.
there is strength in transmitting message. & value in the positive responses from others who accept this reality
I giggled so hard at “dance battle in the comments”
I just stumbled across this channel the other day and I’m in love with all of the alters that have presented themselves! I hope you guys continue to feel safe and secure sharing your stories and communicating with us! :)
Midnight lighting suits the Mermaid hair very well, Very Natural looking falsies too, I was trying to guess if they were real then I read your writing lol My query is - does this mean that The Littlies can read because the brain has been taught how to do it? or is there a section for Pictograms (or creative emojis lol) in your notebooks and pads? I had this image of a New Alter Littlie finding your messages but being baffled by them so I thought I'd ask. Thanks.
Haha thank you! I never wear them i thought id give it a go! Some can but not all! we also use drawings, filming and voice notes to communicate :)
thanks for the quick reply, silly me - I forget how far tech has come sometimes. Have been using PC's for 28yrs and still use paper and pen to write notes lol - I should have thought of voice and film, always learning new stuff even at my age :) thanks
btw the hair colors are rocking! whoever does the dye job is ahhhmazing at it!
Thank you!! We do it at home!
chloe, it’s so good to see you! this is super useful for me, i’ve found 3 new headmates in the past two months when there were only four of us that i knew of before then. your videos make me feel so much more safe and comfortable :) -jade, the nova system
I've had many alters appear at different times in my life. Even I didn't really exist till I was in the 6th grade.
Some of them appear at the same time. Nathan and Michael for example both appeared at the exact same time and they hate each other. Micheal was originally an evil alter when he first appeared. He's since been reformed and become a protector but Nathan still doesn't completely trust him and Micheal kinda resents Nathan for the lack of trust.
Most recently I've had four alters appear at the same time. I'm still trying to adjust to the four new ones. I haven't really figured out their triggers yet. (Most of my alters have triggers that cause them to take over the body.) It's always taken a while to figure out what the triggers are for new alters.
I know why Harrey came out recently. I accidentally got a shock while dealing with power cables. Harrey first appeared during a suicide attempt involving electricity and he always appears when that happens even though this time it was an accident, I didn't realize the line was already live before I plugged it in. Anyway he's been around since about 4th grade so I know how he works already.
The new ones I'm still trying to figure out and adjust to. It's taking a little longer since I've never had four appear at the same time before.
I had been denying for so long, but as soon as i started to reach out i found a little.
Hey. I hope you and the little is ok. Are you getting the help you need?
Wow. Your videos are always so amazing. Everything is so on point...but you are also able to talk about things and explain them in such a way that makes us feel so much more calm and accepting of the things that are happening to us. There is something about the way you talk about it that makes this whole thing seem so much safer than society would like to make us think. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort for making these videos~!
I'm loving how helpful your videos are in teaching about DID. I now feel like I somewhat understand what my friend is going through, though his experience is entirely different.
Sometimes when we know there’s someone else who is there but hasn’t been able to communicate, we try to make them comfortable and so does our friend (who’s a system too). Sometimes she’ll be able to communicate or find them first.
I love that you include the little notifications that you’re dissociating and to whom with. It’s amazing!
Hi, I don't have DID, at least I think I don't, but I do have Borderline Personality Disorder and 1 alter that I know of. Watching your video made me remember my little inner world and house, even though it isn't anything like the physical world and my last memory of it is from years ago . I just recently realized I have an alter and the idea of letting/having her come out completely has been really scary because how people will think I'm crazy.
I remember the event that caused the creation of her, but I don't want to share her name as it's very personal; however the memory is so derealized that I know what my emotions were but I do not feel them. I only remember it in snippets, from a third-person camera point of view, and without color or sound.
It is very emotionally painful and damaging to my mental health trying to suppress her, and I've been trying not to recently, it's just so hard. I hope I haven't made an idiot of myself and sounded like a crazy person, but it seems like I can trust you. Thanks for listening.
Hi cash ette, well as it turns out, I actually do have DID and 4 alters that i know of. What you are saying makes perfect sense to me, and from what you have described he has DID but is not aware he does. If the Host does not know they have DID, it is very common for the alters to act covert by "pretending" to be the Host. I would exercise caution if you want to find out if he does. Presuming he does, he may not be ready for the huge rush of memories and emotion that comes from realizing he has it; and i don't say that lightly, as DID is a way the mind protects the person against trauma in childhood that the mind did not believe it could survive.
I would recommend you both watch DissociaDID's debunking DID series, and if your significant other happens to have DID then he will find great comfort in the other video I'll link. I hope it's of some help.

@@emilycash9382 just talk with him. Don't keep those feeling for yours self. :)
@@emilycash9382 show him this Type a videos and see his reations. In a indirectly way. Like " hi bae lets watch this girl she funny and have this DID and stuff " something in those line the more casual the better, I guess. :)
@@emilycash9382 you should look up BPD with DID or Schizophrenic tendencies on the web. It is definitely a comorbid disorder that affects a few people. Not sure about the statistics are though.... but not everyone has it. I should also mention DID affects about % to 2% of the population and it could be more but undiagnosed. Sometimes people don't know if they even have it like OSDD-1A or 1B. DDNOS is another subtype of DID. I had stumbled upon this the other day..... I really dont think I have it but I like learning about it.
Some people on TH-cam that can help you learn more about it: Sammy Marie, A.J Mahari, Dr. Todd Grande, Kati Morton...
@@emilycash9382 There can't be alters with anything other than DID and OSDD
One week of binge watching and I’ve finally caught up on this channel. Looking forward to new content and learning more about DID and your system. :)
I have experience in disassociation (derealization and depersonalization) and have issues with memory and the sense of self so I see myself with some of the things you talk about.
Greetings from Sweden!
Hi Chloe! I love your channel and am so glad to have found it. You have a special way with words and explaining DID for those of us who don't have it. I feel that I have learned so much from your videos and I think what you are doing is so incredibly important to help others understand what it is like to live with DID. I'm looking forward to get to know your system better and just think you have a beautiful heart
💗💗💗
These videos have been so insightful, interesting and inspirational. It's so humbling to see the self love here and someone reaching out a hand for those who may need help finding that. You're content warms my heart and I'd be thrilled to ever have tbe chance to have conversation with you. Continue following your heart!
This is so heckin helpful. We were able to get our new alter to front for the first time today. Thank you so much
Leaving a comment for the algorithm as well as to say hello to the system and welcome Kya back to the channel
I really love your channel and when I found it I binge watched all the videos and now I look forward to new ones because they are calming and informative. I think the videos are really helpful for people who want to understand DID better and I think they will also help a lot of people who have DID. I recommended this channel to all of my friends. I really love all of the alters we have met so far and wish you all the best ♥ Lots of love from Germany ♥
Thank you so much! So much love to Germany ❤❤❤
The colour balance in this video is superb! It might be an accident, but it underlines your haircolour so well and gives the whole thing a dreamlike quality...
Thank you! I like to play with artistic shapes, colour and lighting in our video ❤
Chloe, you are so good at giving advice. I'm sure that there are so many systems that are super thankful for you and your comprehensive videos =)
I love the way you present the system so much, I am looking forward to more introductions for those in the system. Thank you guys for sharing your knowledge and experiences with us 💕
I died when she said “dance battle in the comments” that was so funny😂😂
We've had to figure a lot of this out without help, well, outside help. I'm glad to see what seems to be a safe community with grounding in corporal reality. It gives me hope for our future.❤
I've actually been trying to find another alter and figure out how to communicate with them and I was getting frustrated. I'm so glad that I found this video because it's very reassuring. Thank you!
A few weeks back I got told that I possibly have OSDD-1b, and that was also the moment I found your channel amongst other channels and honestly your video's are just really great and especially really helpful, and I'm so glad that I found your channel,
You're amazing and keep doing what you're doing!
DID is so interesting and I’m addicted to watching all your videos! I absolutely love your voice and accent it’s so soothing ❤️
I have a QUESTION.. Chloe, what is your zodiac sign? (If you are comfortable revealing this) Also do any of the Alters consider themselves as having a zodiac sign or one they identify with. Maybe you or any of the Alters can address this on one of your upcoming videos. Thank you so much! Also I truly appreciate your willingness to be so vulnerable in all your videos. And I love the word play on DissociaDID!! It was my initial reason to begin watching your videos. I started from your first video and every video in order from there. I have learned an incredible amount of information about DID. Thank you.
Ah thank you!! The littles have birthdays but the rest of us go by the body, except Kyle who is in August. The body is libra-virgo cusp, 23rd Sept! ❤
Thank you for explaining DID so well. I who has never experienced with any disorders think that you make it really simple to understand. I wish you the best and thank you for your videos ❤️
Congratulations on 35k subscribers!! You're all so incredibly inspiring, I hope you go far. :)
Another well put together informative video! You guys are killing it!
i just found your and account and have been binge watching your videos all night. i never knew much about DID and now i'm learning so much, it's so interesting how the brain works. all of your alters are great and i'd love to be friends with every single one of them. plus, you're incredibly gorgeous and your makeup always looks perfect
One of the first oness. Yeyyy. I just wanna say that I love all of you 💞. You all are so beautiful in your own way and the best part is you're all in one body. Ahhhh I'm such a fan
💗💗💗😍
Thank you so much for the DID education you provide. Would you please consider doing a video of Do's and Don'ts for Singletons that are friends with someone who has DID. Several of my friend's alters have reached out to me on their own by text messaging. They've introduced themselves by name and explained their part in the system. A couple of them have expressed not being sure of what I was going to do "to us" but were agreeable with me continuing to associate with my friend. One alter shared that she has fronted on occassion when I'm around. However, in person, they have not introduced themselves to me. I understand that, due to the trauma, the trust issue and covertness was necessitated to protect my friend. But there are times I want to say to my "friend", "I know that you know that I know it's not you." Would that be counterproductive? Rude? I don't desire any alter to do anything they're not comfortable doing , it's just the awkwardness I feel when I feel the alter knows and I know that my friend is not present but neither of us will say anything. I hope that make sense. We've been working through the roller coaster ride together, for instance, I'll make plans with my friend and when I text to confirm the date or time, she'll text back, "Huh?". So, ill forward her the messages and she lets me know it wasn't her responding; we have a laugh and we'll carry on with the plans if possible. I want to remain her friend and provide a listening ear and encouragement whenever possible so any tips you can suggest will be much appreciated.
We actually are already planning a video like this, its coming soon!!
Looking forward to it! Thank you for working hard to get the education out there!
i love that you guys make these types of videos that explain and spread awareness :')
The opening of your videos is honestly such a jam, i love it so much lol
Your videos are really educational! I love learning about psychology and your videos are really good to learn about DID, which I find really interesting to learn about. I’m watching your videos in order atm so I can learn as much as possible! :)
I'm learning so much through this channel! It's fascinating to learn more, and I can't imagine how overwhelming it must get for the system sometimes-when you get overwhelmed what do you do to relax, or does another person front whilst you have a breather? I must also add that the resilience and strength you all have not only managing such a complex system, but talking about it so openly to so many people is amazing, I doubt there are many who could be so honest about themselves online no matter their situations, it's inspiring to see, and you all have all my support
Thank you so much! Honestly I struggle to relax, always something or someone to think about. Nadia helps the body relax. The closest I get is making sure the littles are calm by singing and talkinf aloud to them XXX
I struggle to relax as it is aha, I can't imagine how difficult it is relaxing with a whole system to look after on top of daily life- I don't doubt that you're all doing a great job! As for your body relaxing, maybe Nadia (or indeed whoever is fronting at the time) could try binaural beats? I use it when studying and sleeping and pretty much anything that requires me to be a functioning, non-frazzled person :')
Much love to you all! xxx
You could make a ‘system manual’ that explains who the host is, where they can communicate, important people to know, info about the body; name age and address, as well as basic info about the house and where to find stuff. That would be a lot of work but I think it’d be really helpful.
I've found your channel yesterday and i can't stop watching!! You're all really cool and I can't wait to know more about you, these videos are really interesting. Greetings from Argentina 😁
Sending love to Argentina! ❤
Thank you 🙏
I have definitely found that it’s important to create a space for them to be able to come forward and be heard and accepted.
They need to know that it’s safe for them to connect and be a more active and included part of the system 😊
It’s so interested to come back to these videos and see just how different Nin is from Chloe, without changing too drastically. It’s so fascinating.
I've had that question on my mind for the longest time now, I am so glad I found this video
Btw, I downloaded the SIMS app on my phone, which is SIMS 4 and my alter, Isabelle gave me her last name through the app after she crafted her own SIMS character while she was fronting after I downloaded the app.
(Isabelle commenting now) I also created a personal facebook page for myself and Kesha's other alters. I'm the social media manager for the alters at that profile. My name is Isabelle Willard. If anyone wants to look into our lives and get personal advice from me or one of Kesha's other alters, definately give us a ring on our facebook.
Congratulations on getting to 10k+ subs!!! 💖💖💖
Wow, Mind is such a fascinating thing. Hearing and learning from you more about DID and Systems I get even more fascinated... All best!
Well, this Time I have to say: Besides from the really good Information in Your Videos, I really like the Lighting and overall Colors in Your Videos! :) Your Hair Colors look so vibrant!! :D
Thank you!! 💗💗💗
Loving this! As someone just discovering my system, all these tips were very helpful!
You are so beautiful Chloe! Thank you for being brave and reaching out to others. I have learned so much!
I needed to watch this video. I'm a fairly new system and I'am trying to slowly accept this. I love your videos and I thank you for these sorts of videos.
You are an amazing young woman!!!! (everyone in the system is amazing just wasn't sure how to say that properly) Thank you for being so brave and sharing your story. I know you are helping so many people with this information. I have learned so much from you.
I haven't clicked a video this fast in a while! Per usual you educate in a clean smart manner, your channel is so interesting you guys deserve so many more subscribers! ❤❤
Thank you so much thats so kind! ❤❤❤❤
Wow, love all that you are doing on this channel. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and research with us. I have always for some reason thought that the human mind and different mental disorders were so interesting. One thing I would love to see is you talking with someone in your life about how they view you. Thanks and keep up the work
Amazing video, Chloe! SO well spoken. I love all your videos that you all make!
Thank you!
