My suggestion relax, breath, and then contact a treatment provider ie medical doctor, therapist, psychiatrist. they will be able to get you through the diagnostic process for all the different mental, physical and normal things this could be and then get you into the right treatment program if needed. that is the only way you will know for sure what is going on with in you. plus its less stressful then friends self diagnosing you and possibly diagnosing you with the wrong things.

My friend thinks I have DID because I have acted as other people with other names and their own identity, opinions, etc. But I feel like it is a delusion. If I do have DID, I dont feel like treating it like its literally other people is healthy. I feel like I should accept all of the parts as me. But my friend thinks trying to do that right now would be too stressful. He thinks I should let whatever happens happen without fighting it, bc he thinks it is helping me in some way. He wants me to wait for a professional before I try to take on such a big task. I have been looking for a dissociation professional for two years, i even moved to have better chances, and i havent found anyone yet.
