By the way broken wing I have been recognizing a pattern to your questions from posts on other website s that I am a member of. If you are this person trying to figure out if your friend is bipolar, Schitzo or DID. My answers are always going to be the same--

Leave the diagnosing up to the professionals. It is very dangerous to self diagnose yourself and even more so when trying to figure out others. in some cases people even read into problems that aren't there. That is why professionals use Comprehensive Psychological testing and strict guidelines when diagnosing a person. and once a person is diagnosed regardless of the diagnosis the best thing a true friend can do to help that person is NOT to play shrink with them and try to fix them. That causes more damage and in some cases can be considered psychological/emotional abuse. I understand you want to desperately help this special person in your life. but as his friend the best thing you can do is be a friend not an amature shrink. If your friend turns out to be DID your efforts may cause him to dissociate more to the point where hospitalization treatment is needed if he can be helped at all at that point. So please PLEASE be a friend not a shrink want to be and leave the treatment stuff for the professionals. From personal experience I had friends who tried to play shrink with me because my DID was a novelty to them - they are no longer in my life and I do consider their efforts emotionally abusive because they were more interested in seeing my alters and fixing them then accepting me for who I am - a human being who deserves to be respected and treated with respect not placed under a microscope at their whim and call.
