    "There is of course a large portion of systems who identify as sysmeds. They are traumagenic/diagnosed with DID or OSDD, and they view any experience that doesn't match up with theirs as fake. They only view plurality through an extremely clinical lens, despite the fact that the clinical view purposely doesn't include systems who practice healthy multiplicity, as it only really focuses on disordered plurality[.]"
