Though I don't recommend leading into a conversation about it, and I know many people don't say anything because lets face it- it's easier that way, but I know that once you get suitably close to someone and you tell them, they should realize that you've always been this way. Nothing has changed and not much is going to change. Yeah you have DID, but you have always had DID you just didn't know how to call it.
People get scared of the label, but honestly nothing has changed.
Are you still at home? Are you safe there? First and for most try and find a safe space to live and be yourself. Then you need to start your healing journey. You will find new friends along the way.
At least, that's my advice.

Thank you. Hearing that really helps. I hope people do realise I'm the same person I always was and that nothing has changed.
