I seem to be ticking people off with posting the truths about DID. And have been accused of not knowing anything about DID and so on.

Everything that I post about DID can be varified simply by printing off a copy of my posts and submitting them to and state board licensed and or state board certified therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists in the United states. Also a majority of my information comes froms such professionals as Dr. Colin Ross who has three treatment facilities that work on DID. These facilities are located in Texas and California. All three of there facilities are listed as one of the top 10 facilities in the United States for teatment of this disorder. He also travels teaching professionals how to work with clients that are DID. Also I am a member of NAMI who has been posting the truths about this disorder there for some time. NAMI stands for National Alliance for Mental Illness. They pride themselves on the fact that they suppy nothing but the truths of this disorder therefore any posts giving others misinformation about this disorder is deleted by the NAMI staff some of which include state board certified and or state board licensed therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists.

That said I will say the same thing I was approved to post on the NAMI site: I don't expect EVERYONE to agree with me. In fact there are going to be many that do not agree with my posts. The "want to be's" (fakers) are not going to agree because once readers read my posts they will be able to distinguish the "want to be's" from the true DID's. Those just being diagnosed for DID and those in denial of their diagnosis will obviously not agree since they are in denial. Those starting to accept their diagnosis most likely will not agree because my posts go against the misrepresentation of DID portrayed in the media. So knowing all this why am I posting the truths of this disorder? Because somewhere out there are people like me who are past the denial stage, past the acceptance stage, past wanting to accept the short term bandaids associated with this disorder (multiple hospitalizations, being every shrinks medication guinea pig) and want to go back to the basics - learn what this disorder is according to professionals that deal with this everyday not on the misconceptualized views of society based on media portrayal and learn how to take care of it not for short term but forever.

Any one can do the in depth research that my therapist and I did at public libraries, and contacting professional across the united states and so on. I also have a college degree most if not all the classes were in various psychologies and sociologies that deal with mental disorders, since one of my goals was becoming a certified and licensed therapist. I will be posting my research list of books, websites and so on.

I have in the past been very public - going into various situations to discuss survivors rights such as prisons, schools classes containing children aged 13-adult, testified in a state governors task force and have also appeared in newpaper article as a member of a group that did advocacy work.

I am sorry that my posting the truths of this disorder bothers people but I personally refuse to add to the misconceptions of this disorder by not disclosing what I know and have varified by professionals across the united states who have been helping me and my therapist develop a DID specific therapy program that basically put 10 years of therapy work into a space of 3 years and is on going today.
