I don't know if this will help you any...I hope it does but, when I was first dx'd with DID and I was in total denial to the point of openly hating any sign of alters, a person who was a friend, who also had DID gave me an example. She told me, yes it IS scary & confusing but imagine a lttle one who doesn't understand why no one speaks to her or speaks cruelly. That little one may be afraid and alone and crying. If any of us saw a child in that state, we'd do anything we could to help. My friend said to treat ourselves the same way we'd treat a scared stranger who is lost & alone.
That made so much sense to me and brought me to tears. I still have moments of denial & self hate, but it helps to remember what she told me.
I hope you continue to talk with us here and are able to find peace. and I hope this made sense...
Thanks for this!
