You guys act like this is some "fool proof" decision. Hello you idiot of course you should be inpatient. But it's not that easy. I work with a team that works hard on keeping people out of the hospital. For reasons like I stated, I have a life I need to live... inpatient isn't reality. I have a team that is on call 24/7, sees me every morning with medications.

And the fact is, is that I'm not THIS person. People with DID should understand this. I'm not asking people to "make a decision for me". I'm asking for input on the decision. Like people ask for input on what diet they should do. I'm not very familiar with DID, I have it, but I don't know much about it. I don't know if this rage is just a threat, or whether I should legitimately be concerned about him.

I have a DID specialist, but I only see her once a week and I have no contact with her outside of that time. I have a lot of contact with my ACT team, who doesn't know much about the illness. I'm actually their first and only patient, aside from a severe borderline that played pretend with DID.

You're acting like all I came here for was just attention or something. Just to make PC worry or something. That wasn't my intent. My intent was to get input on whether this entity was a threat or not. I'm part of a new movement that works to keep people out of hospitals in every way shape or form. And I appreciate that movement.

I had already contacted my team. I had already discussed what was going on with them. I put that in my original post. I wasn't coming to PC for being suicidal, I was coming for advice. I had a feeling after posting this that people would jump on me like this. I should have just listened to my gut.
I am sorry that I misunderstood what you were saying. I have rage issues that I may only be able to deal with in some kind of safe setting. I am still trying to figure that out. I appreciate your directness and will be more aware before responding. Take care.
