Making new alters as a traumagenic system?
Hi, so I am a traumagenic diagnosed DID system. I’ve always kinda been intrigued by the plural side of the community and I had a question as I’ve not really been able to find anything about this.
Do any other diagnosed (or just like traumagenic self diagnosed etc) system make alters too? We’ve had a few cases were I’ve seen a character I really like or a theme and then suddenly an alter shows up that seems to have no connection to any traumatic/stressful/emotional situation. They also tell me that they were just made for fun (for lack of a better word) and aren’t related to the DID part of things. We’ve had this for a while even before we knew we had DID of making “characters” in our head just because we wanted them around.
I worry it’s a bit silly to say out loud especially due to the DID focused communities being very anti-plural and such. I know if I asked there it would be looked down on so I thought I would try ask here first.
