I talked to my old t yesterday. I'm in this awful rut and have been for nearly 2 years so I'm going back to therapy. I talked to my t on the phone for about 15 minutes yesterday. He aknowledges the epilepsy diagnosis and is glad that I have been able to get that sorted... but... He still believes 100% that I have DID and has never been so sure of a DID diagnosis nor met a person with DID whose parts were so stubborn. But he agreed that when I go back in for now he will work on coping skills and not try and force the DID parts to emerge or anything. The only time any "parts" were revealed in therapy was after a year of seeing the same t 1-2 times every week.

But it makes me wonder if these parts he met were a result of the seizures. If I was just in some seizure state of mind that altered my state. I've been thinking long and hard on all of this. I brought it up with my T and he said "No, don't go and get the two mixed up they are two different issues completely".

But I found this article and thought I would share it with y'all. It shows a connection between temporal lobe epilepsy and DID
