Wpowers,
Congrats on your ten years, Wpowers! I have worked many years at one or two places too. My favourite work was for about 12 years!
In all the years I was so repressive to all my alters that they never came out at work. It is part of what I did to survive. Guess I would just split and no one was the wiser. It wasn't till my children left home that the dam burst sort of and all the alters came spilling out one by one. It was then that I went back to school for the 3rd time.
Thanks for coming along side. There will likely be more like this old bird coming along with these same issues so I just feel I need to find out what they have done.
I believe all your efforts to get better and the fact that you have a great place to work who have made an effort to understand has made a difference for you. Do you mind if I ask you what type of work you do in what type of setting that they are so gracious?

And I am about as helpless to stop her as they are to stop me. :-( It takes all my effort to just be able to work and then more effort to force myself through the therapy healing process that hurts so much. Thankfully, I have a good report with my manager and with HR. And I have been honest about the DID and how I am doing. But I also know it is my responsibility to control me - in whatever alter is there. Uggggg
