Let me start by saying I apologize if I took anyones words out of context; but the thing we all need to remember, myself included, is that this is the internet. People can not read your facial expressions on here, they can not hear the tone of your voice and know if you are being harsh or sincere. With so many people on here who already suffer with self doubt, depression and insecurity issues, these things said can really effect someone.

Elysium: I am aware of the theories of DID. I appreciate you trying to explain them to me and maybe if I didn't hate science so much I would even consider them. I do hate science though, ever since in the 7th grade when my teacher asked if I believed in God. I told him yes and in front of the entire class he called me an idiot. I know he's only one person but one person can ruin things completely and I'm sure most of us are fully aware of this. With my hatred for science and my admiration and love for some "alters" it makes it impossible for me to believe that "alters" are a form of yourself. I can understand why scientists would believe that, but I don't. I see "alters" as their own people and I don't believe that will change.

Calista thank you for your kind words. They are very much appreciated! I know everyone says that they understand just how unique each case of DID is, but when someone comes along who has a completely different experience with it, I guess it scares them because they than start questioning the people with it and it turns into a huge debate.

If people are afraid of anything, if it triggers people or if it upsets them in any way possible I wish they would just ignore the posts by the people who upset them. If they are confused and would like to understand, there are nice ways of asking their questions.

Again, this site is full of emotionally unstable people, myself included and the words that we use can really impact someone. We all have to remember that we are all struggling and should be there for eachother as much as possible. This is the one place, for many of us, where we can be ourselves and without judgement. It just doesn't seem like that is the case at the moment.

When your family doesn't listen to or accept you, when your t's tell you nothing is wrong or they don't try and help you and when you are left with no friends, we come to this site for the things that we should be getting irl but aren't. Than when we see people come on and question everything and begin to treat us the way everyone else does it makes us lose hope. What is there to hope for when not even the people who are going through almost the same thing as us, can not accept us?

Thank you for all of your replies and I hope you are all well! Take care!
