yes it makes sense but again my best advice I can tell you is go according to what your own treatment providers say..

Im sorry your therapist doesnt want to put a label on you and you want to be labeled what ever is happening.. but you know what....labels are not really that important. the labels are just there for things like insurance companies need to have a diagnostic number in order to pay your treatment providers for their services and other things like that...

kind of like going into a grocery store and all the can goods have bar codes so that the cashier can tally up all the items and know how much you owe them..very few people actually know what those bar code numbers are...I dont know what each of those numbers on my can of tuna are called..are they the weight or are they the town where the tuna was caught are they the kind of tuna what ever I have no idea... I just buy it because I like the taste of tuna..

you dont necessarily need to know a label in order to get better. a person enters therapy with a problem/a symptom...the problem/symptoms are all those things you wrote about. now that you know you have these problems/symptoms you can get better regardless of whether the changes in personality/moods are called DID, PTSD, Anxiety, schizophrenia, depression...

therapists work with symptoms.. in other words they will help you find ways to fix all those things you wrote about.

Example I have Multiple Sclerosis. I have had all the symptoms for years like numbness, tingling, memory problems, dizzyness, and others. I didnt know what it was called and my treatment providers were hesitant to put a direct label on it because all those symptoms I was having could have been so many other things too. So for years we worked on symptoms. this enabled us to narrow down whether I had Parkensons or MS or whether those symptoms were medications and other things.

we worked on symptoms and found some things that worked and some things that didnt and as the field of labels got narrowed down my treatment providers were more able to say what the name of what I had was.

if we hadnt worked on symptoms first and got the label for parkensons well I could have been worse off than I am now.

sometimes when treatment providers are reluctant to hand out labels like candy and work on symptoms instead its because its the right thing to do.

with the symptoms you wrote about it doesnt matter whether your switches are called DID, PTSD, depression what ever all that really matters is that you and your therapist can still discover what is causing these switches and find ways to fix them. and then later on down the road as you have worked on your symptoms you will find out what helps and what doesnt. then your treamtent providers will be able to tell you a name for it.

Another thing to consider... some locations therapists are not the ones that are allowed to diagnose their clients. some locations only a psychiatrist can diagnose a mental disorder by doing a psychiatric evaluation. and some locations a psychiatric evaluation is only done inpatient, in a mental facility.

if you really feel you need to get a diagnosis you can talk with your therapist about what the process is like in your location..

here in my location diagnostics for DID the one diagnosis that contains the symptom of alternate personalities is done partially inpatient and includes observation, medical tests, mental health tests, releasing of past medical mental and academic records, and many other things too.
