I understand the feeling of thinking your going crazy. I allowed others to near convince me of that for 5+years. I too think I have DID and am trying to see if the psyciatrist would be willing to evaluate and change the diagnosis.
No one ever has a problem with my personalities until the 4yr old comes out. And I must say it has to look crazy a middle aged gal acting like a small child, skipping around and having a bit of magical/fantasy thinking. Of course, when the 4yr old comes out so does everyone else. It is as if they are all clamoring for control. I am thinking that unfortunately the 4yr old is the core personality "we" are all protecting...not sure how I feel about that...kind of strange.
I really had my epiphany of this being DID when I turned into my father before my very eyes....talking like him and his mannerisms was extremely uncomfortable. My mother's personality seems to have changed...instead of harassing me like she did growing up the personality has become the mom I always wanted her to be...odd huh...?
I understand why we split off into many personalitites....but why do we make our abusers into personalities?
