theres lots of general information and personal stories here but to understand how it affects you and what your diagnosis means for you, contact your treatment providers. we cant tell you how it works for you, how to understand yourself or any of that personal to you stuff. your treatment providers, they can explain the disorder in relation to you and your problem areas and how to best go about functioning in your life and life around you.
anyone dissociative disordered or not is accepted here. I have a past diagnosis of DID. I am now integrated but still have some dissociative problems.
there are people here at all different stages of all the different dissociative disorders including DID.
Theres people here that do not have the disorder. they have friends or family with a dissociative disorder.
Theres also people that come in here who dont have the disorder, dont have any one with the disorder. they come in order to understand what the dissociative disorders are and to understand what its like to live with it.
all walks of life are accepted here.. at least thats my understanding of the place. I have been here about a yr and a half to two years.
