I recently was diagnosed with DDNOS - not full DID. In the first weeks after I was told, I just started observing myself in a different way, looking for clues like a detective. I noticed when I felt spacey and it was hard to concentrate. I started to notice how sometimes I speak in a child's voice, and I feel really little. I noticed that some things just pop out of my mouth without my thought or approval. I spent lots of time reading posts on this website, which gave me the terminology and ideas about how this stuff works for some people. I did NOT talk to people about it, because misunderstandings about the diagnosis could bite me in the butt and cause more drama than I really want to deal with. So far I have clues about 5 alters, and have communicated with three of them. I'm willing to take it slowly so I don't freak myself out with too much at one time. It is great that you have a therapist you like and trust. That will help. I wish you the best on this new road of discovery!
Thanks for this!
