Are All Systems The Same? || Interviewing People with DID & OSDD

Описание: I am so excited to finally share with you all a massive project we’ve been working on for the last several months. In this video we will be asking seven different systems about their experiences.

Below, you can find little blurbs about everyone involved that we wrote up with the information they provided to us, plus one fun fact they all wrote about themselves.

For anyone who would like to be involved in this project, and who wants to make their own video responding to the same questions, you can find the questions in the pinned comment on this post. If you do make a video with these questions here on YouTube, let us know and we’ll add it to the playlist this video is a part of.

Small disclaimer: the opinions, beliefs and experiences expressed and discussed by the different individuals in this video belong to them alone, and are not meant to represent the other individuals involved in this video.

Systems Involved:
Chell (she/her) is a 28 year old Australian DID system. You can find her at @journeyofchell on Instagram and Tik Tok. Chell wanted to be involved in the video because she feels like her system presents differently to other people she has seen online. Her system is very private and covert, she doesn’t have a system name, her parts don’t use different names externally and she’ll always speak in third person about different parts, even if that part is fronting.
Fun fact: I started my own small business this year using my experience with chronic illness and mental health to help others.

Icarus (they/them) is a 22 year old DID system from New Zealand.
