Astridetal, I don't know why it is so but it does feel like a shock when you hear someone say you are DID. I never wanted the label and resisted it, it makes the past real somehow.
I always felt like i was going to get "caught" and told I was faking it. That was when I had DID, then I became one. I no longer have DID, but I still I feel like I'm going to get "caught". My T tells me much of this feeling is from not being validated when I was young. My truth, my reality was not the same as the perception that others had. When others said I was a good lttle girl-I felt fake, (a liar) and like my life was make believe. I don't know if thats very clear, but you are not alone.
