Not sure Gem if you knew I was dx w/ Borderline Personality Disorder about 13 years ago. Actually, first they thought I was schizophrenic. They treated me for schizo for 18 months. Then I guess @ one of the many hospital stays I had they re-dx me w/ BPD.
The T I see now was my T about 10 years ago and is quite aware of my DX and my history of dissociation. I can "split" as she calls it. But, since I do not like to really talk about it I keep a lot of stop hidden inside of me.
I just started seeing the T again in March 2005. And, in Sept 2005 is the first time I said yes to trauma recovery work. I refused to talk about it before.
Perhaps these "people" inside of me are just parts of me?
Maybe it is just going to last temporarily while I am still dealing w/ my abuse, childhood. I am sure no one can determine this at this point.
I was journaling earlier today. I don't remember the actual moment I journaled but reread it a few hours later.
I named 3 parts of me ...Big Susan, Little Susie and Monster. All three play different roles in my life and come out at different times....
Can anyone help me sort this out?
