Am I supposed to memorize the elements of my visual and audible hallucinations? "Are the voices in your head or outside?" Do I really care enough to explain something they'll NEVER understand?
As long as I can slip away when the stress is too great I don't care who I am or what my reality has become.
Do they need to know who is gone? Or am I really gone and who is still present if anyone at all?
I say prosecute the pervert that caused me this trauma.

The real question they are trying to figure out there is Are you schizaphrenic or not. I can't spell that right. Typically, outside voices and people viewed outside the body get patients labelled with Schitz. or psychosis. Whereas DID usually has the people and voices decidedly inside the mind. We know that they are not others (like say, I can't hand a book to my alter 22 because she's in HERE sharing the body with me). With Schitzophrenia, that is different; they see the people OUT THERE as real and think they could interact with them in the outside world. Make sense? So I am betting that is why they make a big deal of it. Thanks for the post!
