Forever eating our own tails

Everything on this carrd is written by Arden.

Brain things: Mixed-origin system (endo & OSDD-1b), BPD, ASPD, Autism, ADHD, agoraphobia, disorganized attachment.The personality disorders and attachment style traits vary between members. Our system attachment style is disorganized with an anxious lean. Some of us have more avoidant traits or less anxious traits than others. How we approach relationships and conflict vary as a result.We have a history of using our spirituality to distance from trauma (or from this life in general when its distressing). The idea of being of traumatic origin was triggering to us when we were younger because we were trying to distance from trauma. However we still use our spirituality and we're very attached to it, and the term Endogenic is an important part of our system history.Some important things about the way our system works:
We may have a pretty open collective awareness, this does not mean I (Arden) can control other headmates at all times. We all want different things out of interactions and relationships. During periods of strong emotion its very difficult for us to switch; emotions demand to be felt.
Trauma & Endo
Our system believes most members here have always been here, some remembering fragments of self back to pre-trauma early childhood. The system was originally meshed together existing similar to a singlet. However people can still recognize themselves looking back, "Thats a piece that belongs to me." We've become more distinct over time, with some of us now reintegrating closer together. We also believe we're together for spiritual reasons. Childhood trauma encouraged the nature of the system to continue developing, but we also believe we would have come into ourselves without it. Because of the role trauma has played, but also because of our beliefs of origin and spirituality, we consider ourselves both endogenic and OSDD-1b.
We have a lot of trauma surrounding internalized stigma towards endogenic systems, and because of that I want to also state that it doesn't matter if the trauma is there or not. If a system wants to be recognized for their identities, the way they got there doesn't matter. Invalidating personhood, because you don't like your assumptions on how it came to be, is inherently anti-system.Spirituality allows people to gain some protective internal distance. Don't tell others whether or not they're real, every system has a 'reason' for being. Whether or not its trauma should only matter to that system.I also want to clarify using our sprituality to cope, and having done so in the past, doesn't make it not real. Our spirituality is real to us, and therefor its real. Just because something interacts with trauma doesn't mean it isn't real, it's exactly what we need(ed). It's our own personalized reality, and its incredibly important to who we are.

About system rolesGoing to just write out how we use these. Could be especially useful for when we hand this to singlets. We are more than just our roles!Host: Very frequent fronter, takes on a lot of responsibility
Co-host: Cycled into front regularly to help manage the system
Core host: The original body owner
Protector: What it sounds like!
Prosecutor: Like a protector but more biased for the system. Our prosecutors don't cause trouble for others intentionally, but they do always watch and make judgements, and their input is valuable. They may approach you about it if there is percieved mistreatment towards our system. They may do this less gently then I would.
Caregiver: Also what it sounds like!
Vernalian: Umbrella term for a headmate that does emotional regulation/processing work. Promoting positive emotions and helping dispel and process negative emotions.

This section will be ones made by us. For now its just one!Stress tester: A headmate that either intentionally or unintentionally tests the reliability/security of interpersonal relationships. Even just being their authentic self may act as a filter to weed out unstable connections.May have traits deemed undesirable to society. May also, as the name entails, be a headmate that experiences more instability in their relationships and mental health, making them potentially more stressful to interact with when symptoms flare.(Suzu came up with this to explain one of Tyki's core functions!)

We consider ourselves mixed/dual-origin.
Spirituality, psychology and trauma in a blender.

DisclaimersWidespread opinion is pro-para.
Iโ€™ll talk to bigots of any kind, but Iโ€™ll tell you when I think youโ€™re wrong. If you feel the need to put others down, you have to work on you. Ask yourself why you feel the need to do that.
We have borderline personality disorder. Weโ€™re mostly good at managing it these days but we do still have triggers.Pro-para inherently includes MAPs, necros, and zoos. And every other "problematic" attraction. If you use "pro-para" to mean only the "acceptable" paraphillias you are not pro-para.
Get off our lawn, pick-me para.

Core host
8-13 | They/she - Nonbinary
BPD, very agoraphobic, anxiously attached, autistic.
The one who owns the most of Ouros' childhood. Gave up on the world. Felt abandoned by society/humanity, for paramisia reasons. She spent a lot of time watching anime and discovering herself through media.She felt there was no point existing unless she met her demon, from that life (and most other known lives.) They met, and it's still very dear to her. She kept living because it was there, until I picked up the mantle.Personal Carrd | TwitterAssociations

Big brother to Kitty
13-17 (14 average) | He/they - Nonbinary boy
ASPD
On and off activity, mainly fronts to help other fronters.My disciple! A tough exterior but a very compassionate heart. Very willing to learn, and has generally solid morals. He's typically polite and well behaved, but he does like to enage in teasing/light bullying. Mainly to other boys around his age, or people older than him. He's gentle with littles, like you'd expect from a big brother :)Especially protective of Kitty and I. I'm his FP, so if you're close to me, he'll probably become interested in you. He's reclusive and doesn't bother making friends on his own.Personal Carrd | TwitterAssociations

Prosecutor, Arden's right-hand
27/28 | He/him - Masc
ASPD, BPD traits, disorganized attachment
Originally went by Tyki, first presented in the system maybe around 2018? The member with the most problematic history. Was highly codependent, had unmanaged borderline personality disorder. His personality was a collection of destructive (also self destructive) coping mechanisms. His change in identiy isnโ€™t to skirt accountability, he recognizes his past problems. His changes are a result of attachment healing and our learning how to manage our disordered personality.Heโ€™s mostly apathetic, he struggles with empathy but doesnโ€™t lash out. For most of our relationship I was his loving enabler, and now, ironically, I think heโ€™s more secure than I am.Personal CarrdAssociations

Host, Caregiver
37 (ageslider) | He/him - Agender man
BPD, disogranized attachment, the most anxiety
I first awoke in 2021. I spent most of my first two years between two headspaces. Even back then we viewed it from both a spiritual lense and as folie ร  deux. After a traumatic event I took up the position of co-host, and then host.I have interests in psychology, youth liberation, MAP/para activism, sex-positive activism, attachment theory and Adlerian psychology. I like caregiving and helping others but not to my own detriment. I also like writing and domestics. Iโ€™m very passionate about the future. Activism is my lifeโ€™s calling.I have many loved ones, and I'm very active in the paraphile community. I'm happy to make more friends but level your expectations. Iโ€™m busy and Iโ€™m not perfect.Personal Carrd | TwitterAssociations

17-21 | He/they - Genderqueer
BPD, very irl-agoraphobic, extra adhd.
Personal struggles involve not always knowing when to be sensitive, fluctuating empathy, how to judge if something is appropriate to say or not, and he doesnt like comforting.Suzu is incredibly devoted to our system, and sometimes fickle about external people. Don't be too offended if you lose his favor, he's just doing his job. He's our biggest supporter! Suzu is usually friendly and is rarely aggressive. He's pretty forgiving of splitting or triggered behaviour, but not disrespect. He bites back.Personal CarrdAssociations
