Rachel Z. US2002021967 FAQ

Q: What should I call you?

A: We have a few different names. If you're talking about us in the context of Dissociative Identity Disorder, the name of our system is "The System of Shifted Souls". If you're referring to us in a social context, the name Rachel refers to the physical body — current occupants notwithstanding (we are all Spartacus). Lastly, if you know us well enough to have interacted with specific alters, feel free to use their name directly.

TLDR:

• Rachel Zarajczyk, US2002021967
  • If you're referring to us as a singular member of this club
• The System of Shifted Souls
  • If you're talking about our DID system
• Various alters' names
  • If you know us well enough
    
    

Q: You seem to talk to yourself a lot...

A: Ugh, sorry about that. You ever have those moments where you second guess yourself or feel really indecisive about something in the moment? When this happens with us, sometimes it manifests as rapid switches from one alter to another — usually someone has a strong feeling about something and needs to be heard. Other times, a complete switch doesn't occur, but the voices in our head won't shut up about it until we type it out or otherwise communicate wtf it happening. This is made a lot easier on Discord with a bot called PluralKit, which allows us to better visually distinguish ourselves as separate people.
