T and I are trying to work on a time line of "my" life. Living with DID makes this process very difficult.
There are some things I can only remember based off of the ages of my other family members.
There are years I don't remember. There are people I don't remember, but they are in pictures.
Today I had to tell her again about an incident that happened when I was 10, 11 or 12, I don't know.
It is an unsolved mystery in our family and it bothers me so much that it haunts me.
Part of me doesn't know if I want to keep doing the time line because it's so scary. I am afraid of other things coming up that I don't want to know about now. At the same time, I know that there is so much being held up inside that I "need" to know about.
Has anyone else ever done a time line? How did it work out for you?
