This has been my experience. I have heard voices since childhood. Recently the voices combined with some other stressers led me to seek mental health help. Although my experience started out bad, in the end I was properly diagnosed with DID and have found a T I really think can help me.

Thank you for sharing your story.
And yours as well, steve.
