    I don't personally have DID, but I am in a relationship with a system that does and I just wanted to share a little. We actually discovered the system together a few months after we started dating. It's been an experience for the both of us as we all learn things about each other and we've worked our way through a lot and for the most part discovered the reason for each alters first appearance and trauma. I don't want to go into to many details since it's not my story to tell. But I wanted you all to know that they found your channel shortly after the realization of the system and what it is they had. While I haven't seen a lot of your videos they will sometimes share some with me (including this one) and it's been a big help that has told me that even after coming into all of this blind and before having meet their system (not even having heard of DID before and this actually being my first ever actual relationship) it's been really heartwarming to me that I've actually been helping them and not hurting them (as is a constant fear of mine) through this and figuring out where their place is and that each of them do matter. While they'll likely never comment on one of your videos I want to say from both the system and me. Thank you for what you do to show that alters in a system are just as human as the human they are a part of. Also sorry for the run on sentences, I've never been good at writing.

    I found this very fascinating actually. I'm an alter in an American System, and we have one alter who is English, specifically he is from Lancaster, but the body has never been out of the US and we are all baffled as to why Alan is English when the rest of us are American. What's more, we are a mix of overt and covert. We usually chose to hide when one of us comes out, but if we are alone and in a safe environment we will just be us. We find your videos to be very helpful in our own learning process when it comes to DID, the host in particular has found a lot of comfort in it. Thank you.

    Though I might share this, cause why not: Not a system, but I am Autistic. As a result of Autism I was slow in learning to talk. The vast majority of media I consumed as a child was American (Disney, FRIENDS, etc) *esspecially* comedy, which I'll circle back to. Because of this, while still pretty much having a Southern English accent, I was asked countless times over the years if I was American. Since I'd learnt to talk listening to a general American accent, I'd picked up a lot of the dialect. People would correct me for saying words 'wrong' when I'd only heard them with an American accent and not an English accent. I.E plausible. I once said "Pl-AH-sible" in class instead of "pl-OR-sible" and was told off by literally everyone, including the teacher. Circling back to my taste in genre: Comedy, this has played a massive part in how I speak. The best way to explain it is I talk like I'm in a comedy show. These days (I'm now in my early 20s) the American accent is pretty much gone, but the speech pattern is still heavily influenced by stand-up. It doesn't translate to formal stuff like this, but listening to me IRL is telling.

    (As far as I'm aware) I don't have autism but had a similar thing with accents growing up, I'm Scottish but had a very English/American accent when I was young. When I got to secondary school I started speaking broad Scots (probably not to stand out) I have quite a neutral accent now but it changes depending who I'm speaking to. If I speak to someone from home I snap back into the accent but I've had americans, australians and Irish people all ask me if I'm from their countries. It can be quite embarrassing cause I don't want it to seem like I'm taking the piss or anything

So far not too many clear cut differences in alters other than a little, but we're patiently trying to learn and thank you so much for your videos bringing so much comfort and education. They aren't ready to watch them themselves, but have found a lot of comfort in me passing on some things I've learned from watching all your videos long before I even met them!

I never really placed that the Welsh English Jess speaks and the London English Jamie speaks until you both really brought it to focus. Not only was that interesting but I loved that Jess responded with her gut reactions to the words probably because she did the test before to make sure it would work for your channel. But Jamie was far more analytical with his answering... and that glasses push up the nose is so something I could imagine a doctor doing during a consultation... this was a smashing good video, it was the Weasles Pajamas!

    Fun fact: In my personal experience, I’ve talked to quite a few systems that use the term “Little Ones” for child alters,, hearing it on this channel, and thinking it’s purely DID terminology, myself included. I just now am realizing that it’s apparently just a dialect of English, but has unofficially been adopted by the DID community. All the other systems that use this terminology have watched this channel, and coined it from this channel.

Emma (the caretaker/protector) is SO italian and loves to speak italian, idk about the others really bcs they never fronted "alone" (most of the time I co-front with them so i'm not sure if they speak english bcs they fell comfortable with it or bcs of me).

    We have OSDD and everyone has a different voice and way of speaking. I think that it helps us to distinguish the different parts. There are some accents. We live in Texas so that’s the most influential way of speaking that we know and one alter can have a very strong East Texas accent. We have two folks who are English. I really appreciated what Jess (?) said at the end about alters’ accents, that they don’t have to be perfect. That really helped us because we watch soooooo much British TV and I think sometimes things get a bit mixed up. I also have an alter with an accent that just is. It just developed for him and doesn’t really represent any place.

    It's always so inspiring and reassuring every time there's a new video posted here. We're a large system and quite a few of us do have accents and identify as from parts of the world we've never been to. And while one of us has the thickest Northern Irish accent, it probably isn't accurate to a person actually from there. Just our learned conception of what that accent is like, and it's sometimes hard for her to not feel like it looks put on, but that's just how she speaks. This really helps put things into perspective on that front.

    We also have lots of alters from different parts of the world, and some feel a little nervous about their ethnicity because our accents aren't really accurate besides what we've been exposed to It's always nice to have videos like this cause we are all valid and we're just raised in a different place then what we identify with

    Jess, I'd like to thank you for having this channel. I don't think I have DID, but have been dealing with some intrusive thoughts that were very out of character for myself for some time after a medical scare. And when I was searching for answers, I came across your channel. Its helped me in becoming more accepting of my thoughts and learning to have a conversation with myself and trying to figure out what is it that I need and that I've been ignoring or suppressing. Its a lot less scary and a lot less isolating now that I am now taking the time to address my thoughts rather than trying to shake them off or push them away. I've liken to much like a driver chatting with a stressed or moody child during a car ride. Kid vents, driver tries to alleviate what it is during the drive time. So thank you, because of you I've been able to realise some of my needs and have been able to find the help that I need.

    @I Yam Who I Yam youre not alone. I will say some of my thoughts are so loud and so out of character i literally stop and say out loud, "wtf was that? Why?!" And look around. Sometimes I get an answer and others I don't. But some do drone on and fill my head and I've been told its mild depression and anxiety and I've been working on them because they are my thoughts, the back of my head thoughts that I've repressed and they finally got to shouting. Which makes sense, after my trauma, my stress levels just skyrocketed and never really came down. There are days, where i will have full conversations and Q&A sessions during work or during my drive, and often times it feels like I have a nervous, moody, and clingy kid next to me or in my car that I have to talk to or reassure them for them to calm or settle back. The more hateful and toxic thoughts are harder to work through, but if I can get a word in through all that chatter and swirling, i usually say, "I'm listening, I'm not going anywhere, what else, tell me." because i literally cant, I'm frozen or very timid to move and rather than to say "stop and go away" which never really helped, attempting to show empathy to those thoughts have helped a little. Its very disorienting, often times i feel like my body and spirit are misaligned. Like i know my feet are on the ground, but it still feels like my heels are hovering in my calves instead.

    @I Yam Who I Yam I hope it helps, I think it does take practice. Strangely at the time I was researching and practicing communication, education and dealing with difficult situation with children techniques for my job. I never thought I'd use it on myself, when I noticed it, I was kind of surprised that it somewhat worked, because I was using language that I usually didn't with myself. It did feel like a lie in the beginning, the attempts of saying something soothing or compassionate or understanding, still does depending on how bad it is, but for the most part, its serving a bit of a speed bump when I realize I'm starting to speed down with unwanted and stressful thoughts...though sometimes, it doesn't work and just feel like an unpaved road and then I hit a tire eating pothole. Those are hard days and very loud.

    I am an English alter in an American-bodied system and this quiz actually got relatively accurately whereabouts from England I am!! which is interesting because the system has never met a British person, we've never been out of the country, and all of our knowledge of English accents is from Harry Potter and other English media, although to be fair the hosts did hyperfixate on it for quite a long while and almost obsess over being able to near-perfectly replicate what they heard, so that could be it. --Ocean

    My family is from Southport and I grew up on the Wirral (over the river from Liverpool), the test picked up Liverpool and Blackpool (Southport being in the middle) so not only did the test pick up the vocab I grew up around but also what I've picked up from my family which is really cool. There was a little section in the middle of England which I'm a tad confused about but that could just be average terms most people use I suppose. Love this video! Such a cool idea and the test is so fun

It picked up that I was not from around there and was more likely to be from outside the UK. Pretty accurate! I will ask some of the Alters if they want a go and see if their answers differ to mine.

    Was really happy to see this video. We’re a multiple with a few different accents. So there’s 12 of us. I, the host, have a northern accent which is very strong. We have a new alter, Malachite, who has an accent which is a mix between northern and Scottish, with more of a Scottish lilt when it comes to certain words. 7 of us, including our youngest little have American accents which I attribute to all the shows we watched and our love of American culture. Some of them our southern, some our from the east coast. And then we have one alter with an Australian accent. We think that’s a result of the friends we have from there and again a show from years ago that’s close to our heart. The last two are mute. Oh and btw we’re an OSDD-1B multiple from England. Susy
