I don't go by the books either, but it seems that the reality is that people with DID do have supressed memories because people have remebered them while in treatment. I am having a difficult time remembering is all - but I have only started serious thrapy for a few months ,so it may just be early yet .
I know the human brain is awesome and extremely complicated and even the best professionals don't know even a fraction of what the brain is all about - just trying to see what we do know now at the present and where I fit in. - Thanks.
