Psychosis isn't a DID symptom (hence it's not a criterion for its diagnosis) but it's a common comorbidity.
It's important to understand that hearing other alters' voices doesn't have to be psychosis. We hear other alters' voices, but they come from within. It's not an hallucination because it's like if it came from an inner ear.
Seeing alters could be considered psychosis. Chris had an hallucination recently, he saw some people who used to be bad waiting for him in our building's lobby. He almost passed out but it couldn't be real. It's the first time a serious visual hallucination happened...
Hugs,
Lana
