Struggling with OSDD and Identifying Switches

Helloo- My name is Kayden/Jae. I have been to therapy and have been suggested by a therapist to have OSDD, but have never be diagnosed. I’ve noticed over the past few years especially last year, I experienced lots of dissociation and a bit of amnesia. I don’t know my alter count but due to what people around me say, it seems to be upward to 25+. According to people my personality changes a lot and I seem a bit disconnected from the world around me. I have never been able to “hear” my headmates, but only recognize them from people telling me my mood is different than what it just was. Does anyone have any idea on how I could identify switches? How do I communicate to headmates to know who they are?

we really recommend the app Simply Plural it helps keep track of alters and how many r in ur system and even who's fronted if u have amnesia walls and whoever fronted wouldnt know u downloaded that app I suggest like going to ur notes app on ur phone and making a note encouraging them to go and put themselves in there we also use picrews alot to make what we look like as well

A journal next to your bed might help :) or maybe a journaling app, so you can take it anywhere? Just so yall can write your thoughts. We have Twinote and it's really cool, also SimplyPlural is great for keeping track of who's fronting

We started using SimplyPlural. It tracks your switches and after a while of tracking the ones you notice, you pick up on things that signify what headmate it fronting.
