Bio
"Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind, or forgotten."
We are the Ohana System - a DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder) system of indeterminate number. The "ohana" quote from Lilo & Stitch is particularly special to some of us as not only do we apply it to our system (the personalities sharing this body), but we also apply it to our miscarried son & daughter.
If you are talking to us, you're generally talking to several personalities at the same time -- we call this co-conscious and it's a way of being smooth and reasonably consistent. On 7cups, those you are most likely to be interacting with include:
dawni: 34/f/ages with the body; ex-alcoholic who still self harms; poet & photographer; compassionate & insecure. Current shared "host".
Jayne: 30s/f/ages with the body; artist; introverted & creative. Current shared "host".
Kevia: 26/f/ages sporadically; shy & thoughtful. Current shared "host".
Deenie: 15/f; dancer, bit of a party girl; passionate & energetic.
TJ: 20s/f; skin-picker, bit of a drinker. epic tomboy; sarcastic. Current shared "host".
Slate: 17/m; completely emotionless - serves to "blunt" others' emotions.
Diagnonsense:
Borderline Personality Disorder (Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder, if you so prefer) that also encompasses symptoms consistent with Panic Disorder with Agoraphobia, Generalised Anxiety Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder (severe and recurrent). [All "symptoms consistent with diagnoses were recently attributed to the BPD.]
PTSD/C-PTSD
DID including symptoms of depersonalisation/derealisation disorder
Other:
Survivor of childhood abuse (every kind); survivor of domestic violence (several kinds)
Babylost mama with 2 butterfly babies
Living alone
1 furchild (dog)
