Why are we here?
I am always interested in connecting with people who are going through the same things that I am. I feel that it helps the healing process for myself. Perhaps my knowledge that I've gained thus far can help someone else, and theirs could possibly help me as well. That's probably not the only reasons, but it's the primary ones of course.
Why are/were my alters here?
I've had my alters since I was a child. I had such a hard time finding myself after the things I had gone through. I was mute for months at a time, and I was breaking apart as a child. They saved me, but now that I am older, I've been slowly merging. Of course that didn't occur without problems arising, but I'm finally able to deal with some of the things relating to my childhood.
What helps me to survive?
Family
Friends
My boyfriend
Music
Drawing
Writing
Reading
Communicating with similar people
Remembering that I'm alive, and that life is precious
What do you do here on Psych Central?
I'm new, but I want to meet similar minds to my own thinking. I want to get help, and to help others. I've mastered things, and still struggle with things as well. Getting in deep depressions, I sometimes forget that I do still need to socialize with the outside world.
Why?
When I had(Still have, but I have it under control) Generalized Anxiety Disorder, I went to a forum much like this one and received help. That help was absolutely priceless, and I cannot give enough credit to that community for my recovery. I went from an agoraphobic person ridden with anxiety, to a semi-social person who's able to do anything and go anywhere. Still working on the social bit, haha
