Got something difficult to explain (grieving moment)
3 years ago
So, as the title suggests, I'm gonna be taking today and grieving, while just relaxing at home...
I was so excited to stream with one of the friends I've known longest in my life, until I was delivered some devastating news.
And also as the title suggests, it's difficult to explain.
My longtime friend of 11 years, whom I will refer to as Omega, has dissociative identity disorder (a.k.a. DID, the P.C. term for multiple personality disorder). And without telling me or checking in on me, their mind went complete madness. The way their alter egos put it is this:
Think of my friend's mind as an airship, and they are the captain. All of their alters live together on the airship. Well... shit hit the fan and the airship suddenly split in two, barely holding on by threads.
The end result is that the mind of Omega has gone, and as their alters explained, they might not come out the same again. There may be semblances of them in the week and a half to 3 weeks it may take to repair them, but as they said, they undoubtedly won't be the same.
It's the most devastating loss of my life thus far... we did most everything together online... Played games, worked on many a project together, and we just started streaming a Pokemon Genlocke JUST THIS LAST SUNDAY...
And before the pandemic got REALLY bad, I actually went out to visit them for the first time since we had met... we were friends for almost 10 years by that point, and I took the initiative to fly out there and visit them. I even built their computer for them and all of their alters.
But now... he won't be the same friend I've known all this time... I already miss him...
Omega, or whoever comes out on the other side, if at all... I hope you will man the helm stronger than Omega did, and I hope we can still be friends once this is all over...
Rest in Peace, Omega... I loved you more than anybody else...
EDIT: this song puts my feelings into perspective... topical since it's on a Sunday...
