====== Incident-grouping ======

(Namespace: [[theories:start]])

Each of my headmates holds a particular [[functioning:trauma]], or sometimes just extreme stress and fatigue. At the time I formed this theory, I thought that was all there was to it, but now I believe it's just one of several ways of looking at it.

The materials they hold are grouped as such:

  * [[headmates:Sophie]] holds burnout, but at the time I formed this theory, I thought she held physical pain. (She //might also// hold physical pain.)
  * [[headmates:Kate]] holds perfectionism and denial.
  * [[headmates:Singer]] holds grief for the happiness we could have had.
  * [[headmates:Alice]]'s unelaborated insiders---whom, at the time I formed this theory, I thought were all the same Alice---hold the suitcase incident, the verbal abuse from our mother, and the bullying at school.
  * [[headmates:Oliver]] holds the bathroom counter incident, though at the time I formed this theory, I [[theories:hiding|thought]] that [[headmates:Lucy]] held it.
  * The [[headmates:Daisy/May]] subsystem, whom at the time I formed this theory I thought was just Daisy, holds the following:
    * Daisy holds whatever happened //after// the suitcase incident---as indicated by the thighs nightmare.
    * May holds nonviolent sexual abuse from my father during outings, as well as appeasing my mother to avoid being yelled at.
  * The [[headmates:Penelope/Anabelle]] subsystem holds the following, though at the time I formed this theory, I [[theories:hiding|thought]] that [[headmates:Lucy]] held them:
    * Penelope holds nonviolent sexual abuse from my father at home.
    * Anabelle holds nonviolent sexual abuse from my father during supervised visitation.
  * [[headmates:Lucy]] seems to hold nothing but inner strength and wisdom and guidance---though at the time I formed this theory, I [[theories:hiding|thought]] she held what I now know [[headmates:Oliver]] and the [[headmates:Penelope/Anabelle]] subsystem hold.
