Wow..lots of good inquiries..lets see
1. Yes & No
2. Dunno..cant speak for everyone..just ourself(s)..but yes know about mapping
3. Yes us gals & guys have both
4. Persecutory alter..best to talk with your T about those..IMO...they can be a bit difficult if triggered ..maybe a bit is an understatement..oy vey..
5. See all of the above..
Gracey you ask alot of good questions and it sounds as if you have a therapist who understands the Dissociative Disorders, if he/she is doing mapping, so hope as therapy progresses that the many questions you are asking about will be answered, also wish you well with your healing and recovery..it is an arduous journey...so I wish you strength too..take care..
