Since non of the above posts mention being misdiagnosed so Im not sure what you mean...but in general so people do end up with a misdiagnosis of DID or other mental disorders too. this happens because a person may have symptoms that are part of many different diagnosis therefore it may take the rule in / rule out process of being diagnosed with one thing, getting treated for that or reevaluated and their existing diagnosis is ruled out (taken off as a possibility) and another diagnosis that has the same symptoms the person is having is ruled in until that one is ruled out through treatment. with this process it takes many years to finally have the correct diagnosis.
is being diagnosed DID easier then getting another diagnosis that may or may not be the right one....that depends on the person being diagnosed. for some its easier and for others it isnt. people dont awalys react the same way yo being diagnosed and going through what ever treatment options they are going through. each person has their own way of going through the diagnosis and dealing with their problems and treatment plans...
how you are reacting, adjusting, progressing or not progressing what ever may be the case is whats right for you and how I progress/ not progress, react, adjust and handle receiving a diagnosis is how I am.
