Hi Astridetal,
Sometimes I am afraid I am faking it too. And then I ask myself how would that be bad? Actually it would be better to be faking it than to have it. I think it would be easier to get over faking it, you know?
I think the SCID is cool. It is good they have a standardized tool to evaluate.So often, DID looks like everything else. It is a lot like the blind men and the elephant. They are all checking out a different part, but they can't see the whole picture. Then they catagorize the whole as being all like the one part.
It understand how you would feel upset at the diagnosis. Its not as accepted as something like depression or anxiety. I send you good wishes and good luck!
