Petunia, DID and schizophrenia are two completely different things. Schizophrenia deals with hearing voices, which I don't do and having delusions which I don't have. DID is when you have more than one personality which I do have. And yes, I am seeing a psychiatrist and a psychologist and someone who does EMDR. My psychologist says that it is DID and she said it takes 3-5 years to treat. I want to know other people's experiences in how long it takes and how they communicate to the personalities. Also, I am on meds for the depression and they are working but my depression is getting bad again even on the pills due to the fact that my DID is out of control and I can't go to school or work, and my mom is in a lot of pain. If I didn't have pills for the depression, I would be a lot worse now.
