Omg so happy to see you guys again! Thank you so much for the business shout out, so glad you enjoyed the products. I wanted to do a little something to give back to you guys, your videos helped me understand my diagnosis when I felt so lost.
Hey multiplictyand me i have a question. Would you consider your alters a part of your family? If not would you take offense If someone thought they were family?
I just realised how much more sense the puzzle ribbon makes for DID awareness, rather than autism awareness. As an autistic adult, I see the puzzle as ableist in regards to autism, and like most autistic adults, I reject the puzzle ribbon in favour of the rainbow infinity ribbon for autism awareness. For DID, however, I don't see how the puzzle ribbon could be at all ableist. Frankly, it makes the most sense because you're all separate but one, like the puzzle ribbon. Petition to make the puzzle ribbon the universal symbol for DID awareness.
@@fourteens2336 The puzzle piece implies the idea that people with autism don't "fit in" or as they are and have to be made to do so. It 's been used to display autism as a tragedy and by people trying to "correct" autism instead of accepting us for who we are as people with our own personalities and experiences.
As someone who may have DID. And certainly has complex trauma. I like the puzzle ribbon for DID. I think it sort of fits for all dissociative conditions. Because in other conditions, despite the absence of additional personalities, it is primarily post-traumatic and leaves one such as myself with massive memory problems.
Hysteria was removed from the DSM in 1980 and was replaced with various diagnoses that the APS considered components of the original diagnosis. Some of the names of these have changed in the following two DSMs and are currently called: Dissociative Disorders Somatic Symptom Disorder Factitious Disorder Imposed on Oneself Conversion Disorder (Functional Neurological Disorder) Histrionic Personality Disorder Borderline Personality Disorder Many of these disorders are considered Traumagenic in origin and so it has been retrospectively theorised that Hysteria was an umbrella term for all the symptoms displayed by women who had experienced trauma. The label was often used pejoratively and dismissively by the extremely patriarchal institution that was psychiatry. Interestingly, these component diagnoses remain some of the most highly stigmatised and controversial in modern psychiatry and all disproportionately effect women. Gross, A. (2019) Hysteria Today
the fact is is that there’s SO many different opinions on how rare DID actually is. i’ve seen professionals talk about it being more like a fraction of 1% of the entire population like 0.01%. but because of this we don’t actually know what’s right. i choose to believe the figure you gave is correct but it’s still such a debated subject x
You have to check on individual studies but usually people actually diagnosed will be 0.01% in european countries which have higher diagnostic criteria than in US. People in US who actually have a diagnosis might also be faily low -probs less than 1%. But they also do longitutidal studies in a city for example- Bristol in the UK recently hosted one where they screen everyone for eveything to see what the actual numbers are irrelevant of doctors expertise or access to treatment- those statistics tend to be much higher for Disosciative disorders which by their nature developed to keep trauma victims safe and under the radar. They also might do smaller versions of those studies in mental health populations etc
I wanted to come back since I noticed I haven't had your videos randomly pop up on here in awhile. Saw your Instagram post too and just, congratulations! I would be lying if I ever said I wouldn't miss the alters and their unique personalities, but I'm extremely happy for you that you've reached your own goal for your mental health. I hope you, your family, and life is and always will be well. And I just wanted to say, too, that you don't ever have to give up "MultiplicityAndMe" because of final fusion. It is still valid to keep that and even expand on it despite everything because this was your experience if you so choose. It's also valid to just not come back too if you feel your job is done, because it's your life and your choice. No one can fault you either way on this, and I just wanted to reinforce and show support either way on it. Happy healing!
I wonder what the brains of people diagnosed with DID would look like once integrated? Whether those prefrontal areas would maintain those biological classifiers, or if they would lessen at all..? Really interesting video, guys! Great to see you on my screen again
I was literally thinking about you guys a few days ago! Glad things are still going well. This video actually reminds me that I suggested this channel and a few others to my intro to psychology professor because she didn't have any videos for DID. (She only had one video that showed the different personalities in "Split" and I was not going to let that stand uncontested.) She was very nice about it, and added the videos and channel links to the course folders along with sending an email about the updated information. This video will be great for the students in her courses as they get introduced to Psychology as a whole, and hopefully correct some misconceptions they might have about it.
@@MultiplicityAndMe Thank you for putting the message out there! I personally don't have DID so for me and people in like me this channel is a treasure trove of information to help us understand DID a little bit better for all we know there's somone vary close to us with DID so Thank You for sharing this information with us
i miss your videos so much. i feel like there has been an overwhelming amount of people (teenagers) faking DID on tiktok lately and it seems to me that you’re one of the only authentic people willing to educate and i really appreciate that. its so sad how many teenagers on tiktok are stigmatising the disorder even more.
So glad to see you back and that you're safe! We were diagnosed about two months ago with DID and it's been a lot harder to get things done since it kind of came to the surface. We've been slowly trying to work out routines and opening communication between us. Your videos give all of us comfort. Keep at it and stay safe!
Welcome back! Don’t worry about the down time. I have enough trouble adjusting 1 life to a new routine. I can only imagine the process of adjusting multiple lives. I’m glad you’re back to a point where you can upload again. I would be interested in hearing different perspectives on how the change in routine felt to each of the alters, if any of you feel like sharing. Either way, it’s good to see you healthy and doing well. 🤠😂💕
No need to apologize for taking the time you need to get in the swing of things, always do what's best for you! Glad to see a post though, always happy to see a vid!
Glad to see that you guys are back :D I'm friends with many systems, and your videos help me understand DID a lot better so I can better understand my system friends ^_^
omg i feel like i haven't seen them for ages. i'm happy that they're still active. i actually miss them so i'm watching their videos again~ Jess's make-up is just so pretty i'M OBSESSED!!!
Absolutely made my day seeing you again! So much love to you all. You’ve created an incredible, essential impact on our lives. Words truly cannot explain it. Just know, if anything, that you mean so much to us and so many others, singles and multiples alike. You’ve got a special place in our hearts! Please never stop being you, the world needs you all! Love you love you love you!! 💕💕💕
would love a video about how things are going after the final fusion, however totally understand if that isn't something you want to go into! hopefully you're doing well :))
Thank you so much for making this video! I am a newly diagnosed OSDD system and shared this with friends and family as a resource. Already got multiple responses that it helped them understand a few things better. 💙
Hey, it's been a little while since the last time I came around these parts. Your channel was the first one that I really focused on when learning about DID, and started to wrap my mind around this fascinating, heartbreaking, altogether somehow incredible condition and the fact that the human mind is capable of these things. How one person can in fact be several people, or at the very least parts of a whole, and the implications that has on each alter's identities, their outlook on life, how terrifying it must be to experience at times, but also somehow inspiring as a protective trait? And of course, its origins in trauma and the unconscionable things someone may be subjected to prior to its onset. I don't know, there's a lot of emotions wrapped up in it for me, because I overthink everything, and I don't even have the disorder myself. All I can say is that your videos were both educational and entertaining, and helped me learn more both about the condition and the people and systems that experience it - as well as offering a look into the life of someone who was clearly making great progress on their healing journey. And it was an incredible thing to behold that all of these individuals could be parts of the same person. Ollie with his casual demeanour and youthful wisdom, Jamie with his dry humour and intellectual bent, Jake's warmth and enthusiasm, Ed's straightforwardness and Jess as the thoughtful and well-spoken host. Though I can't really reduce any of them to simple descriptions, their different characters definitely stuck in my mind, especially when I consider they all have the same body, with the same brain... it's remarkable. They were and are all charming in their way. I read your Instagram post a while back that mentioned Jess integrated to such an extent that you may all have possibly fused. I was thrilled to think of your newfound sense of wholeness, though I am sure it's also been challenging to adjust to the changes. And there seem to have been many changes - a new child, a new job... I'm honestly happy for you and Gaz, and hope things continue to improve for you. I don't know when you'll come to read this, but I'm wishing you and your family nothing but the best. While I hope you'll continue to be present on YT in some fashion, I know you have to do whatever is best for your life and your family, and just the thought of you happy and fulfilled is enough. I'm sure many people feel the same.
@@MultiplicityAndMe Of course! Life gets overwhelming for everyone! Just hope everyone is happy! Cant wait to hear what you have all been up to the last few months!... p.s totally fan girling that you actually msged me back :)
Jess you have inspired us a lots. We are sharing info in Italian and Spanish. We learned how to be a better person and a Co working system thanks to you and Longsoulsystem. So THANKS JESS AND COMPANY
I found your channel a few days ago by accident and am so glad I did! I don't have DID, but being educated is very important to prevent isolating those who do. I knew next to nothing about DID before, despite that fact that a surprising amount (to me, at least) of the population has it. I've checked out a few other sources too, since everyone's experiences are different, but you all are really good at explaining complex topics in an easy to understand way, so thanks you!
Thank you for making the content you do! It has helped us a ton! We are formally diagnosed with DID and currently pursuing marriage and one day children. Learning to live with the disorder is a struggle, but with people like you providing education, it has helped our future family tremendously!
Stability and unconditional love ❤️ those are the two things we would recommend as a foundation 🥰 and thank you so so much! So glad we’ve been able to help! Best of luck with your little family!
omfg congrats on the healing journey. I’m gunna miss the boys’ unique personalities, but it’s so exciting to hear that you’re now all whole again :D I wonder how you’ve reacted with this new change, but I hope nothing but positivity and hope for the future :)
Channels like this can be so ultra helpful. Not just the videos, but the comments too. I think the comments are kind of like a little example of journaling, which can help with healing for so many people.
4 and 6 made my brain go: Wth? I have heard Brain Scans being used to tell the difference between someone with a healthy brain versus one with some sort of mental disorder/illness. It's pretty cool and scary at the same time but it helps understand why the brain is the way it is. It makes sense, if you really think about it.
Right. I hate to think my brain can actually look different because of trauma. Which it seems is what they must be saying. You cant have DID without very young trauma so something went askew when we were very young. I know neuroplasticity etc and DNA can actually be changed... Weird it would show up on MRI but not EEG perhaps?
Lovely to hear from you all again! I was properly diagnosed with DID 6 months ago and my parts and I have FINALLY managed to get some communication going even if it's not direct. I've been able to figure out what makes them more comfortable and happier and we are in a much better place than we were at the beginning of our diagnosis
So glad to see you're back. I do not have DID but I love reading about all of ya'lls journey (im hard of hearing so yeah I read the closed captions). I do have dissociation and bipolar and anxiety and ptsd so in a way I can relate to some of the symptoms yall go thru. Best of luck going forward.
Great to see you back, so happy you’re getting comfortable in the new rhythm. You make learning about this disorder and mental health in general so accessible. Thank you for doing what you do, and hope Gaz gets better soon ❤️
Hi!!!! I thought you weren’t posting anymore, it so good to see you guys!!! Miss you, sending much love. Thank you for the helpful information as always. 💜
Thank you for this video. I wish we'd been able to have a brain scan and be diagnosed so much earlier in life. It would have saved us going through a lot of trauma. I will show this to our specialists and hopefully they can take this seriously. - Jamie
Thank you for these videos! We all, as humans, need to better understand each other's experiences. And the knowledge needs to spread. A family member's (FM) friend was diagnosed with DID or something similar relatively recently. Before that, their friendship was essentially over, or at least at arm's length. The friend had treated FM in a confusing, hurtful way that was not good for their friendship. Now, I don't even have to be close to the situation to tell that the friend is getting the treatment they need. The individual treatment has allowed for huge relational healing. It's beautiful to see the ripple effects on the two friends' kids and beyond. I don't know the details of the situation AT ALL-it's none of my business*. But I wonder if that friend would have been diagnosed earlier if DID and similar disorders were better understood. - *I almost didn't leave this comment, but this account is pretty anonymous, and I figured the "FM" vagueness further helps. It would be very, very, very difficult for anyone to figure out who I'm talking about. :P
I just stared watching the yggdrasil nymph video. I've commented before somewhere on this channel & I want to say Jess, you're still my hero. I'll never be able to thank you in a way that equivalates how much I've learnt & taken from your journey.
Y'all look stunning! Great to see you back and doing well :) I wish I saw this channel back in 2014 when I was talking to someone who had DID. It would've helped me understood it better
I just came across your account this week and you just uploaded after a while. I dont have DID but I'm here to learn about it and just to enjoy watching your videos. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Been subscribed for around 6 months ish? So I binged watched so many videos and I’m glad you guys are back. I hope you’re all doing well and I really appreciate your content ❣️
It is such a delight to see you back! Thank you so much for your videos! We started therapy and stumbled on a lot of powerful things. Through your educational videos and wonderful personalities, we've managed to understand and embrace this journey in a much healthier way. Thank you for your vulnerability, dedication and all the work you do for the mental health community! Wish you all the best in life, you deserve it! Much love!
Dissociation and Derealisation that you mentioned has had a significant increase in search results after Bo Burnham mentions having them in a song from his new Inside special. Not making a point or anything, just thought it was interesting and good the more people know about any of them
Hello! One of my system friends recommended you guys and I love the channel! I have been wanting to get a diagnosis for DID/OSDD when I turn 18-20 (I’m 17 as of now) due to having some symptoms of it and also having childhood trauma. I’ve also been trying to get advice from my aunt who is also a system.
Your channel has helped me help others with maladaptive daydreaming and DID and get them properly diagnosed. I love y'all and am thankful for all your videos!
Thank you so much for posting this video. This has literally validated my experience in trying to seek a correct diagnosis over the last 9 years. It's so nice yet sad to know that I'm not the only one to have gone through years of incorrect diagnosis/treatment as well as complete dismissal of my symptoms. ❤️
I have DID I wasn't diagnosed until age 61. With the help of UA-cam and you I was able to finally, get on track with mine. I was a travel agent all my working life. I'm now traveling in my tiny home van and creating and channeling on UA-cam. You're so important in my discovery. I'm building my DID INTO my channel, instead of hiding it. Cheryltimeify is my channel, it's a work in progress.
So nice to see another video! Your videos are always so well put together and informative. I live in Canada and there isnt much help or understanding about DID.
Took me 8 years to get my daughter diagnosed. Now diagnosed still no help from our doctors. If doctors don't knowvabout DID then they shouldn't say things like ' your imagining it, stop lying, stop attention seeking" ect. Which is what my daughter has faced. Thank you so much for your channel as its given us alot of hope when time and time again we've been let down. Its along fight we've been fighting and seems never ending.
Sorry I haven’t been around for awhile to watch you… and wow! Jess you are looking so beautiful, being a mommy has given you more beauty and confidence it seem! 😀
Omg so happy to see you guys again! Thank you so much for the business shout out, so glad you enjoyed the products. I wanted to do a little something to give back to you guys, your videos helped me understand my diagnosis when I felt so lost.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how adorable the puzzle in the intro is?
Thank you
Eee thank you flora 🥰
@@MultiplicityAndMe ofcorse just saying the truth 😊

Hey multiplictyand me i have a question. Would you consider your alters a part of your family? If not would you take offense If someone thought they were family?
@@GagsAnimation it's probably a good to ask that on a new video that the system posts so they can see it
I just realised how much more sense the puzzle ribbon makes for DID awareness, rather than autism awareness.
As an autistic adult, I see the puzzle as ableist in regards to autism, and like most autistic adults, I reject the puzzle ribbon in favour of the rainbow infinity ribbon for autism awareness.
For DID, however, I don't see how the puzzle ribbon could be at all ableist. Frankly, it makes the most sense because you're all separate but one, like the puzzle ribbon.
Petition to make the puzzle ribbon the universal symbol for DID awareness.
Why is it ableist to autism?
@@fourteens2336 The puzzle piece implies the idea that people with autism don't "fit in" or as they are and have to be made to do so. It 's been used to display autism as a tragedy and by people trying to "correct" autism instead of accepting us for who we are as people with our own personalities and experiences.
@@aeyadice2765I agree with your sentiments, as a fellow autistic adult.
As someone who may have DID. And certainly has complex trauma. I like the puzzle ribbon for DID. I think it sort of fits for all dissociative conditions. Because in other conditions, despite the absence of additional personalities, it is primarily post-traumatic and leaves one such as myself with massive memory problems.
I don't need a symbol to give me and my diagnosis awareness. More healing and integration into the world than these little bandaids.
Hysteria was removed from the DSM in 1980 and was replaced with various diagnoses that the APS considered components of the original diagnosis. Some of the names of these have changed in the following two DSMs and are currently called:
Dissociative Disorders
Somatic Symptom Disorder
Factitious Disorder Imposed on Oneself
Conversion Disorder (Functional Neurological Disorder)
Histrionic Personality Disorder
Borderline Personality Disorder
Many of these disorders are considered Traumagenic in origin and so it has been retrospectively theorised that Hysteria was an umbrella term for all the symptoms displayed by women who had experienced trauma. The label was often used pejoratively and dismissively by the extremely patriarchal institution that was psychiatry. Interestingly, these component diagnoses remain some of the most highly stigmatised and controversial in modern psychiatry and all disproportionately effect women. Gross, A. (2019) Hysteria Today
Thanks Gilly :)
@@MultiplicityAndMe You're very welcome lovlies :) Keep up the fantastic work spreading real education and awareness, you're doing great x
the fact is is that there’s SO many different opinions on how rare DID actually is. i’ve seen professionals talk about it being more like a fraction of 1% of the entire population like 0.01%. but because of this we don’t actually know what’s right. i choose to believe the figure you gave is correct but it’s still such a debated subject x
Yep. My psychiatrist is having me go to someone else who can help me more and specializes more. It’s not the first time this has happened.

I was literally just thinking the same thing.
Jess does beautiful work with her hair and cosmetics.
And I think sometimes Ed helps her out. 🙂💙

I've been able to figure out what makes them more comfortable and happier and we are in a much better place than we were at the beginning of our diagnosis
Hey! It’s nice to see you guys back. So happy that you are settling into your new routine. Take care and have a lovely day!!!
Thank you so much 💐💐💐🥰🥰🥰
I'm OBSESSED the new intro and how the text bits look! fantastic video as always, my lovely!

Thank you so much 😊 💗💐
Love the twinkly lights!! Sendling love to Gaz and bub, pets too!! & to the whole system of course. Great info as always!!
So glad to see you're back. I do not have DID but I love reading about all of ya'lls journey (im hard of hearing so yeah I read the closed captions). I do have dissociation and bipolar and anxiety and ptsd so in a way I can relate to some of the symptoms yall go thru. Best of luck going forward.
Really happy to see a new video! We've missed you all dearly!
Thank you Alyssa & co 🥰

Thankfully what DD does or doesn’t do has no impact on our choices :)

I have missed all of you! Happy you are back, in whatever form that takes.
Thank you so much ☺️
Great to see you back, so happy you’re getting comfortable in the new rhythm. You make learning about this disorder and mental health in general so accessible. Thank you for doing what you do, and hope Gaz gets better soon ❤️

Thank you for this video. I wish we'd been able to have a brain scan and be diagnosed so much earlier in life. It would have saved us going through a lot of trauma. I will show this to our specialists and hopefully they can take this seriously.

I’ve missed you. I’m so glad you all are well and happy 😊
Glad to see you all are back! 😊✨
Thank you for these videos! We all, as humans, need to better understand each other's experiences. And the knowledge needs to spread.
A family member's (FM) friend was diagnosed with DID or something similar relatively recently. Before that, their friendship was essentially over, or at least at arm's length. The friend had treated FM in a confusing, hurtful way that was not good for their friendship. Now, I don't even have to be close to the situation to tell that the friend is getting the treatment they need. The individual treatment has allowed for huge relational healing. It's beautiful to see the ripple effects on the two friends' kids and beyond.
I don't know the details of the situation AT ALL-it's none of my business*. But I wonder if that friend would have been diagnosed earlier if DID and similar disorders were better understood.

*I almost didn't leave this comment, but this account is pretty anonymous, and I figured the "FM" vagueness further helps. It would be very, very, very difficult for anyone to figure out who I'm talking about. :P
I just stared watching
the yggdrasil nymph video. I've commented before somewhere on this channel & I want to say Jess, you're still my hero. I'll never be able to thank you in a way that equivalates how much I've learnt & taken from your journey.
Thanks so much for the brilliant video, very informative! Getting some Jamie vibes in here with Jess. Lovely to see you all again ❤️
Makeup and hair is on point 👌
The hair definitely looks like Ed and I'm so into it and the makeup shape is so flattering to Jess's face
I jus twang to say thank you for all that you guys do! I have learned so much from you!!! Hope everyone has a fantastic day loves!!!!
This is wonderful! And your doggo in your photo is a good doggo 🐶

OMG same.
Hype!!! 😍😍😍 thank you for the notif sub 🥰💐
Y'all look stunning! Great to see you back and doing well :) I wish I saw this channel back in 2014 when I was talking to someone who had DID. It would've helped me understood it better
I just came across your account this week and you just uploaded after a while. I dont have DID but I'm here to learn about it and just to enjoy watching your videos. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

Hey its great to see you back!! I hope you're all doing very well!
That’s so kind of you Katherine thank you! You too!
It is such a delight to see you back! Thank you so much for your videos! We started therapy and stumbled on a lot of powerful things. Through your educational videos and wonderful personalities, we've managed to understand and embrace this journey in a much healthier way. Thank you for your vulnerability, dedication and all the work you do for the mental health community! Wish you all the best in life, you deserve it! Much love!
These make me feel a bit better, I'm constantly trying to convince myself that I'm faking, and this video has partially derailed some of my doubts
Wow, we missed you! It's good to hear from you guys again!!!
Ahh thank you 😄💗
I’m so happy you’re back!!!!!
Dissociation and Derealisation that you mentioned has had a significant increase in search results after Bo Burnham mentions having them in a song from his new Inside special. Not making a point or anything, just thought it was interesting and good the more people know about any of them
Hello! One of my system friends recommended you guys and I love the channel! I have been wanting to get a diagnosis for DID/OSDD when I turn 18-20 (I’m 17 as of now) due to having some symptoms of it and also having childhood trauma. I’ve also been trying to get advice from my aunt who is also a system.
So glad to see this video! We've missed all of you. 💜
Yay! Thank you so much ☺️
Welcome back queen
And kings
Your channel has helped me help others with maladaptive daydreaming and DID and get them properly diagnosed. I love y'all and am thankful for all your videos!
How fabulous to see you back. I missed you. Best wishes from Sydney. ❤️
Thank you so much for posting this video. This has literally validated my experience in trying to seek a correct diagnosis over the last 9 years. It's so nice yet sad to know that I'm not the only one to have gone through years of incorrect diagnosis/treatment as well as complete dismissal of my symptoms. ❤️
So happy to see you back! ❤️💜
Thank you 🥰
I have DID
I wasn't diagnosed until age 61. With the help of UA-cam and you I was able to finally, get on track with mine. I was a travel agent all my working life. I'm now traveling in my tiny home van and creating and channeling on UA-cam.
You're so important in my discovery.
I'm building my DID INTO my channel, instead of hiding it. Cheryltimeify is my channel, it's a work in progress.
You're such an inspiration! Glad to see that you're back, missed you!
That’s so very kind of you to say 🥺🙏 thank you
So wonderful to see you guys again 💕 Thank you for sharing this information and I hope all is going well for you all and your family! 💕
It’s been four months! Please return and update us!
UA-cam: Multiplicity&Me uploaded a new video
*everybody liked that*
I love seeing you on UA-cam again, I also hope everything is going well in your life :)
Hey welcome back! :) Lovely to see your face again and as always I love learning more.
So nice to see another video! Your videos are always so well put together and informative. I live in Canada and there isnt much help or understanding about DID.
Took me 8 years to get my daughter diagnosed. Now diagnosed still no help from our doctors. If doctors don't knowvabout DID then they shouldn't say things like ' your imagining it, stop lying, stop attention seeking" ect. Which is what my daughter has faced. Thank you so much for your channel as its given us alot of hope when time and time again we've been let down. Its along fight we've been fighting and seems never ending.
I’ve missed your videos so much! Always happy to see you guys :)
Welcome back! 💕
Thank you Bobby! 🥺💐💗
