Day 7 of @tmaynt , favorite turtle gadget:

I know this is a major decline in my usual art quality, I am just so tired right now. But enough complaining, this is the mutagen tracker Donnie built is 2012 tmnt (yknow the cause of a series of unfortunate events)

I promise the next ones will be better than this, I just had no time today. I may need to combine a few days down the lines but hey they’re gonna be done

one of the most important things about dissociative identity disorder and generally being a system that i wish people would understand is that it truly isn’t as cut and dry as it may seem for member count.

you’ll see people who say they have “six alters” and then immediately assume it’s six fully fleshed out equal individuals with no confusion or fuzziness regarding identity. that’s simply not true in a majority of cases, as i have seen.

most systems still VERY much deal with confusion regarding potential splits, go through dissociative episodes where they’re unsure of who they are, sometimes feel no attachment towards any identities, feel like they might have split and then suddenly that person is gone, unsure if alters they haven’t heard from often have gone dormant, not sure how to react when alters do come out of dormancy, etc.

it’s not a fun feeling and it’s genuinely unfair in certain situations to force systems to list every single alter to you with full certainty, as if it will never change. because it will. for so many different reasons, systems will grow, they will shrink, they will fuse, they will develop. you can’t expect the person with the dissociative disorder and lack of core identity to be able to keep up a perfected list of forever, it’s simply impossible. you may have alters who stick with you, but that doesn’t mean changes won’t happen.

and systems who may be reading this — please don’t feel bad. you are not a hassle, you are not a headache, and you are not an inconvenience for simply coping with something like this. it’s out of your control and the only thing you can do is continue to cope to find ways to help yourself retrain from these reactions. please don’t allow yourself to be harmed by others who don’t understand what you are going through. there are people who will accept and love you for who you are, all of you.

past, present, and future.

TMAYNT Day 3: Favorite Henchman

BEBOP AND ROCKSTEADY

Specifically the IDW versions. These two are absolute powerhouses when it comes to the comics. They are certainly a force to be reckoned with! And the stuff they get up to is hilarious.

Not too proud of how Bebop came out, but I had to stop messing with him eventually and called him good enough lol. Not bad drawing these two for the first time!

Day 6 of @tmaynt , favorite mutant ally:

Leatherhead!

I'm pretty happy with this one, once again I haven't drawn him much. This is the first I've done not a side profile of leatherhead

I am slowly starting to run out of steam, so if quality goes down a bit that's why. This is I think the longest I've drawn in forever, and I'm determined to finish this month

I dont think im gonna continue tmaynt, atleast not to its entirety. I was really motivated to, but I just feel burnt out cause of it. I'm just gonna draw some non-tmnt stuff for a bit maybe? Don't worry, I've not given up on tmnt and mnv but It's just too many turtles man lol
