System Questions - Tumblr Posts
It goes really really really fuzzy (usually gradually but sometimes not) and then when the fuzziness fades and I feel like my brain is clear again x amount of time has passed and x has been fronting for however long
Open ended question for other systems: how does it feel for you when you're not the one fronting?
ok i wanna see if other systems experience this
we can sometimes pinpoint what alters “smell” like despite not having a sense of smell innerworld? like- sasha smells like spices and old books and coffee and ghost smells kinda like smoke with leather and cherry undertones
Ok, I wanna check is this is “normal” or not:
I’ll answer first: yes. We did have that feeling. Specifically Blue. Blue had that feeling a lot where they would wake up and see something and wonder “did an alter do that?” Despite not being aware of the system at the time. Literally the wondered if someone else in the body did something. Like wtf??
How tf did they not know sooner???

We use both of the terms
But being more theoretically, introjects in CDD context are alters who formed based on something that already existed, and because the oc already existed when the alter formed... Well yeah, it's an introject
This can also applied to any other creation the system mades and then gets in the system as an alter, they're introjections
If I'm not wrong autoject is a term for all the introjects whose source is something created by someone else of the system, some autojects don't consider completely like introjects because the brain made them but not from scratch, so you can just use that if you want
Labels are that, labels, made for your own comfort, so if they don't like introject/autoject/brainmade let them use whatever they want, but theoretically speaking they're introjects, or if they wanna be a little bit more introject separated but still explain they have an "external" source they can use autoject
another serious question for the osddid community
when you make an oc and then get an alter of said oc is that technically an introject? like one of ours just considers herself brainmade since she barely associates with her source anyway (literally an oc we had at like 12) but then another considers themself an introject so it’s??
like are they technically brainmade since yeah it’s an existing character but it’s YOUR OWN existing character or like? 😭
ik labels don’t matter that much but i’ve been curious for a while now
