I believe healthy multiplicity is real and your anon is missing the point, psychology is supposed to explain the workings of the mind not own them and only allow for their worldview to exist, so please don’t assume I’m one of those anons, but I think that what people like the anon are doing to you reminds me of what otherkin like you do to other kin, you define who can be part of the community by your views, like being against coping kin, according to my worldview as kin that is possible.

Sorry this took me longer to get to!

You have a point! The difference is that I absolutely believe that copingkin exist as a phenomenon that people experience. (there’s no reason not to). I just think its important to point out the differences between what copingkin experience and what other otherkin and fictionkin experience. Just as I think its important to point out the difference between what DID sufferers experience and what natural multiples experience. 

Indeed there is a strong parallel because copinkins are caused by trauma and distress and other fictionkin/otherkin are a natural/spiritual phenomenon.

If DID anon had told me that he wanted natural multiples to call themselves something else, rather than just saying we weren’t experiencing what we were experiencing, I would have given him more understanding.
