It took years for me to learn that I might be DID. At first it was a relief to know I wasn't losing my mind. It took time for me to settle in with the diagnosis. I was fine with it one time and upset with it the next. The important aspect of being diagnosed DID was having a jump off point for my therapy. And I have to say with a little medication and therapy I have begun to move forward. And that feels good.
