| Bio: | When Cara began this journal for us, we were going to have everyone write a small intro about themselves. However, as time went on and we learned more about being multiple and about ourselves as separate personalities residing in the same body, we realized that we would wind up taking more room than livejournal probably allows. So, here is an intro that hopefully tells you about who we are without making you bang your own head(s) into a wall. While many would say we have Disassociative Identity Disorder (DID), formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD) we would probably say otherwise. Afterall, the term “disorder” makes it sound as if things are chaotic, insane, unstable, etc. Technically we are none of those things. Like everyone else, each of us has our moments of crazieness, but it’s no more so than any of you who may stumble upon our little journal. We’re not insane. We’re not unstable. And while things may sometimes get a little chaotic, it’s not usually more than is normal. We just have a unique look at life, reality, and ourselves. Each day is a learning experience for us as we learn to cope with one another, society, and being multiple. We are far from achieving our desired level. However, we are taking steps to reach that goal and to ensure that our lives are happy, healthy, and a little less chaotic. :) We are many living in the same mind. We are all individual. We are all unique. And we created this journal so we can write about ourselves and our experiences and our thoughts without fear. Without prejudice. Without worry. You may or may not like what you read. We don't mind. Just realize that we like who we are. And we'll only change if we all decide that's what's best. Yet, feel free to add us to your friends list if that's what you wish. You're more than welcome to do so :) Don't try to tell us we need help. We don't. Don't try to tell us we need drugs. We won't take them. Don't try to tell us we're crazy. We doubt that's true. Now for a little intro about each of us. Jessie 27 years old (the age of our body) The name of our body (ie. The one on the birth certificate) is Jessica. So, it seems appropriate that the host of our little system is named “Jessie”. She is the main personality in the sense that she’s out the most, and until she realized we all were here, she made all the important decisions. She has 2 children, who we all help take care of. She is mothering, nurturing, studious, and a bit strange at times. She has her own journal ( Cara 16 years old Cara is a teenager. She can sometimes come across as being a bit too aggressive but that comes from many years as acting as the system protector. The one who jumps in when there’s trouble and defends us when we can’t find a way to do it ourselves. However, if given the time to be herself she can be quite pleasant. She loves anthropology and would love to travel the world experiencing different cultures. She has her own journal that she made for herself and Sara Corina Age Unknown Corina is an odd one. While her name may be female (and we usually refer to her as one) she's actually neither male nor female. We used to refer to her as "The Numb One" because she has no feeling. Not emotions. Not sensations. No senses. She very rarely comes out except when a situation calls for it. Jessica 19 years old Jessica is one of the newest personalities to emerge. She feels that she is the original personality of this body and that the rest of us are just figments of her imagination. When she's out most of us lose time. However, we usually know she's been here because we'll find cuts on our arms or legs. We all consider her very dangerous. Partially because of the cutting, partially because no one is sure what happens when she's out, and partially because she wants us to integrate with herself as the only personality. Joey 7 years old Joey is one of our littles. Like Sarah he never comes out. No one knows his story, why he’s here, where he’s from, etc. He never speaks to anyone though he will occasionally yell, “NO!” for no apparent reason. He stays huddled up and no one has even seen his face. It is our hope that one day we can find a way to help him. Until then, he remains a mystery. M--- Adolescent M--- came to us as a walk in a few years ago. Long before we knew we were multiple. She hasn’t come out since though many of us can still feel her presence. It’s because of that she is even listed here. No one knows her full name, we can only remember it started with an M. Perhaps some day she’ll once again feel safe enough to make herself known to the world. The Mel Twins 40 years old Seeming to be older than even our body, these African American twins are an interesting duo. Melissa is the psychologist of the group. She sort of appeared while Jessica was still a young child but unable to really cope with therapy. She often comes out to help give advice when a friend is in need of such, is a great ear to talk about your troubles to, and was the one who originally advised about this journal as a form of self therapy. Melinda is the spiritual teacher in our little system. Her wisdom sometimes surprises even herself. She doesn’t come out often without her sister, but when she does you can bet she has a reason. Sometimes she and Melissa will come out together, finishing eachothers sentences and acting as one. Because of that they're rarely thought of as being apart and are often just refered to as "Mel" or "The Mel Twins" Michael Age Unknown Michael hasn’t been allowed out in a long while. He tends to scare the rest of us. He is very dark and not in a good way. He takes pleasure in giving others pain only when they don’t want it. We are currently working on a way of finding him an outlet so perhaps any healing that needs to be done can be. Until then he is not allowed to even front and is kept far back so he doesn’t influence what we do and those around us. Everyone in the system works together to ensure this so there is never any worry about someone getting hurt. Mielk (her name is longer but harder to pronounce so we just call her "Mielk") Age Unknown Mielk is so old none of us can even guess her age. She’s been attached to Jessie’s soul for many lifetimes now. Which tells us that we have probably been multiple since birth. However, it wasn’t until about two years ago that Mielk allowed her presence to be known. She isn’t human, which didn’t come as a surprise to us. She is a form of deamon (not to be confused with those of Hell or such nonsense). She is as far from harmful as she is from harmless (ie. she won't hurt you without a REALLY good reason). She seems to stand between our dimension and her own and very rarely comes out unless absolutely necessary (and someone is present who can understand what she’s trying to say). Sarah 6 years old Sarah is one of our littles. She very rarely comes out to play. Usually she sits in the corner and cries. No one knows why as she doesn’t like to communicate with anyone. She seems to sometimes be very attached to Cara and until recently was thought to almost be a younger version of her. Recently, she hasn’t been crying as much. It is our hope that whatever pain she feels she is recovering from. Steve 25 years old Steve is the stand up comic of the group. He’s always ready with a witty joke and sometimes has a very sick sense of humor. Currently he never comes out as he still doesn’t feel comfortable being a man in a woman’s body. He would love to be a bartender. We haven't heard from him in a while. Uoko Age Unknown Uoko is one of the few within us who doesn’t identify as human. She is fae. Whether or not she originated in this body or is a walk-in remains as yet to be seen. She is very hyper and almost always happy. She has a kind of innocence to her that sometimes worries the rest of us. She loves music and to dance and is a major Star Trek fan. I drew a picture of her you can find here Yaro 27 years old Yaro is a very athletic Japanese/American woman. She loves anything to do with physical exertion, sports, etc. She is also very big on health. Eating right, not smoking, not drinking (except in the occasional indulgence), no drugs, etc. She comes out every day to work out, usually doing yoga or martial arts. She also loves cars and anything mechanical. She's recently been out more and has started her own journal ( The Unknown There are occasions when we find that we don’t know who is in control. These moments are often confusing though we are learning to deal with them. It is our belief that perhaps this is someone new who has yet to make themself/ves known to the rest of us. There is also the possibility that there are more which we are just unaware of, who never come forward but choose for their own reasons to remain in the back, out of sight. However, they too deserve a place here. As the Unknown -------------------------------------------------- Multiple Code MuC N- [f;f/m/a] S.Hv&Lf/H+/He/Sd/Hf/~ A(b;r---!/+++!!)
