again, myself, welcome to the forums. i've read your introduction in "social". it would seem that you had a difficult time at another site by posting your "truths". therefore, it could show to you a pattern that your truths are truths for you. they don't apply to many.

i think the problem many have is your usage of the word "truths" as if your facts and research is the "way it is and that's all there is to it. why can't you see this?" when, in fact, MANY do not see it as you do.

i appreciate your research. i appreciate your healing and insight. i do not appreciate being told that my life's existence is not "truth".

what it boils down to is that DID sufferers are survivors...no matter how they survived, no matter whether they have pieces or a little blue eyed boy named thomas. what matters is that we survived and are looking to heal in our individual ways. DID is quite varied. i would, in fact, question that someone with just memory pieces would actually be DID (then again, that's my view that i don't push). we all have different views and truths. if you want respect here, you must give it. thus far, i've seen little respect and much demand.

be safe in your continued research and healing,

kd
