Dualconcious

Dualconcious:

=Dualconcious= "The word 'dualconcious' is derived from the word 'dual' meaning 'consisting of two parts, elements, or aspects'. This complements the concept of being dualconcious well as it highlights how being dualconcious is like having two separate consciousness; system and singlet."Being dualconcious is less of a type of system or system origin, and more of a consciousness a system can develop over time, or, in rare cases, have from the start of their multiplicity. The state of being dualconcious is when a system completely regresses back into the singlet state they had before they discovered their plurality. They will normally have none, or very few, memories of ever being plural while in this state.

This change of consciousness can be caused by a variety of things. Extreme questioning or denial of being plural, constant fakeclaiming, a heavy sense of missing the state before you were plural, a coping mechanism to escape stressful plural-oriented situations; such as rapid switching, severe blurriness or dissociation, remembering exotrauma, stressful innerworld drama, etc. It is a way for the mind to escape the overworking it has to do to process so many things at once.

Those who are dualconcious often find themselves bad at multitasking, handling multiple sounds/visuals/things going on at once, and tend to be monoconscious as the conciousness the alters may share is the same. But, this is not always the case, rather the most common reoccurrence.

Systems can experience being dualconcious, rather than being dualconcious, rarely regressing or only doing so once. This necessarily isn't the complete state of being dualconcious, but rather a passing experience. As a full dualconcious person, you will experience this often, or whenever you experience a negative situation as explained above, or in most cases at least. A fully dualconcious person will have developed a full singletsona by a few months of experiencing regressing, or at least have a decent sketch of themselves when this happens. But, in this case, rather than the singletsona being a mask, it is a developed part of the conscious.

It can be scary to regress back to a singlet, having the worry of losing your system, etc. But, being dualconcious is a completely safe place of mind for systems. And, regressing can be healthy and help the mind heal. Regressing can last a few hours to a few weeks, and the process of regressing will feel much like you're switching, and is never permanent.

Contrary to what is said above, being dualconcious is not always developed from negative things. One can become dualconcious willingly to help keep the brain stable, it can be caused by positive reinforcement from those your plurality is closeted from by complementing or giving a lot of affection about how great you are singlet-wise, or it can develop spontaneously.

To become dualconcious can be tricky. You have to have a lot of determination and willpower. It's all about luck. But, it can be similar to willing in a headmate for those familiar. You need to imagine the times when you were a singlet, and try to hone into that, project it, will yourself back to that state. It can be a long process, and that piece of consciousness will only come back a few fragments at a time. The harder you believe, the easier the formation will be.

The singletsona you have can be a replica of the core before systemhood, or it can be a version of the core, or even a completely different person to what the body is/was before becoming plural.
