I just watched the remake of Sybil last night. That movie always gets to me, but I'm drawn to watch it every chance I get. It's amazing to me that some people think that DID is not a reality. I suppose because it scares them or because they are just very close-minded - their reality is the only reality. I'm sorry you had to deal with close-minded people - your psych professor should know better and really, why allow students to be so negative? I'm very careful in my classroom to steer conversations away from negative ideas, especially judgemental ones, that could be harmful to others in the room. I don't know what these students' lives are like or what reality they have lived. I don't want to trigger someone unintentionally, but I know not all profs are that way.
