i think that's where all the hate on endos comes from. «they claim to be suffering like we do» and shit... but being plural doesn't mean to suffer. it means having multiple people in your head and that's it.
i think people don't quite understand that systemhood is not always about suffering only. being a system may genuinely help coping with stress and people may be in good relationships with their alters. not always, of course, but thinking about plurality as a curse only means to stigmatize it.
there CAN be happy life for systems and we should at least try to reach it. meow :]

I just ran into this on my feed, and I'm having trouble looking up the info, so maybe someone here could tell me (please?);
What are endogenic systems and traumagenic systems, in regards to mental illness (and maybe autism)?
//: can we jjust talk about anti-endos for a second?
//: it’s just like... imagine basically saying to someone, “you aren’t real” “ii don’t believe in your existence and you thinking you exist is harmful”
//: it feels hypocritical. it IS hypocritical. because thats what ssome closed-minded singlets say to traumagenics too, surely
//: just because we didn’t form from trauma doesn’t mean we didn’t form at all.
//: and so what? wwe’re just existing. we aren’t hurting anyone.
//: we understand why anti-endos believe what they do about us, and why they believe us eexisting is harmful to them, but it still isn’t right and it’s still hypocritical. y’know?
