my treatment providers and I didnt count my alters.. in my psychiatrists words "having DID isnt a popularity contest of how many alters you have compared to another person with DID, you have as many as it took in order for you to survive. what matters now is that we know you have DID and we can now help you to become stable and work on your problems in ways that are best for you."

I just followed what ever treatment plans we made together about my problems and in time each of my alters integrated with me when they were no longer needed to do their job, purpose and reason for being because I was able to do those things for my self. I am very happy with not knowing exactly how many there were, its mind blowing enough knowing my brain was able to dissociate my personality/emotions/feelings, in order that I should survive.
