Hiya Lour,

I was in denial for a long time about my diagnosis. It can be very overwhelming. The advice I would give is not to push too hard to get it all sorted out. Let things evolve for want of a better word. Parts will let you know when they are ready to come out and make themselves known. This process may take some time.

There are many many books on this subject. See the sticky notes at the top of this forum. Movies like Sybil etc have done this subject a great deal of harm. I tried reading a couple of books and I would read a page or two at the most and wanted to pitch the book out the window.

I was so frustrated and up tight trying to fix things. A member in this forum just used one word................. Relax.

Take care, and find something that gives you comfort. Its all a continuing journey.
