My pdoc had a difficult time listening to me about my DID as well...she diagnosed me with I think 8 or 9 different things until my therapist wrote her back and told her he KNEW I was DID and was treating me for it, and my case manager also told her that I had DID. So now she is treating me for that. I am on just a mood stabilizer, something to help me sleep at night, and Xanax for the anxiety I have associated with the DID. But the diagnosis isn't what should be the main concern here. The treatment you should be getting will probably never take the voices away, however, it will help the mood if you are on a mood stabilizer, but we have found for our own system the anti-psychotics don't work, and actually make things worse. So approach your pdoc on the offensive stance, and tell him the ap's aren't helping and you need a mood stabilizer, and perhaps Xanax instead of the anti anxiety med you are on now. You don't have to try to convince him you are DID. If he doesn't believe you that is HIS problem not yours. Just be proactive and in a nice way go and say this is what others who have DID have suggested you to try. If he still doesn't listen, get your T in on the conversation, asking her to talk to your pdoc for you. It just takes time and a little proactive work on your part. Don't give up, just try a little more assertiveness when you speak next with your pdoc. I hope all goes well for you, and have a good weekend.
