Geographic locations?

[sethrenn.livejournal.com]

I was just playing around with an idea tonight that I'd like some feedback on...

I remember that when we were working on Pavilion, there was an idea at one point to do a directory of multiples by geographical location. We never really had enough people involved to make a very extensive one, but I'm wondering if any significant portion of this group would be interested in listing their locations. I found a service that allows people to put their names on a map here.

So, interest...? You wouldn't necessarily need to do anything with the information-- it wouldn't mean you'd *have* to meet up with anyone in your area, for instance; it might just be interesting to see the geographic scope of the community.

Stress and co-consciousness

[pleiades-rising.livejournal.com]

Normally, our system is pretty co-conscious. We lose a few minutes here and there, and once in a blue moon, an hour or two. But I found that I lost a full day! And lately I've been forgetting things that happen while the others are up front. I don't know why I'm losing co-consciousness, but I think it might be stress related, because I've been under a lot of stress lately. Then I've realized that during times when I'm really stressed, I have a tendency to not remember what the others do. Has this ever happened to anyone else?

Anyone want to help this writer out?

I just found this entry on the nanowrimo community -- the author is asking for information on multiple personalities, and I thought that people from here might be willing to offer advice/assistance/links over there, before the commenting gets too skewed.

The location map has been created. Go for it:

Individuals .. oh yeah and to test icon

Ok so it's late, and we have taken a sleeping pill and we are all feeling pretty damn mushy after a weekend of intense school work, so excuse me this doesnt' make that much sense.

Lately we have been hit but the issue that although we are almost completely out as being multiple, most people in our life still interact with us as one person. We miss the relationship we used to have with friends, who could tell us apart, or at least the ones they had spent the time to know and the other ones were treated like new and interesting guests into their home. That friendship crashed and burned when we found out that we were being used financially and sexually by them. It is good they are no longer in our life, but we do miss that personal individually recognised relation. Now with the people that do know, that accept it, there still seems that it is this mushy clump known as Shire that is recognised and talked to. Shire is always just the name we use in the world, it isn't any specific person. I do believe that some of this problem comes from us, we also use the Shire as a name to hide behind, a safe and easy way through sometimes complicated communiciations. Especially places like here and in emails where often it seems more a joint effort than one person speaking thier mind. But it still means that maybe part of the problem is that we don't allow many people to really get to know us as individuals. I miss it, most of us with a few outspoken oppositions miss it. Hiding our multiplciity has become second nature to us, but we still struggle to allow ourselves to be seen as people, or to not just be the person the other needs us to be.

So in a fit of boredom we thought by creating icons of us all it would somehow make it easier at least here to identify ourselves. This is slightly been shot down because I am only allowed 3 icons, and one is used as our default, so that leaves two of us to be identified. Now it isn't liek we all come here and talk, but there is usually more than 2 people interested in contributing to this site. I'm still trying to think of ways that would make us being allowed to or comfortable with showing ourselves separately. It is years of condition to overcome
