no one ever told me I have a one track mind. quite the opposite. they were always coming to me to figure things out because I had the ability to think on many different levels. they didnt know I was DID and that if there was something I couldnt figure out I would end up dissociating and another who was capable of doing that would figure it out. for a while there before I told anyone I had DID everyone thought i was just a whiz at multi tasking and able to think out many different elements, aspects of a problem at the same time like someone with a photographic memory could....

I remember this one time in school I got in trouble because I was doing the work faster than others and my teacher thought I was cheating, she didnt know that I had DID so i was to think out the answers faster than other single minded people could.

i always had more than one objective to my playing...I may have been playing dolls but at the same time I had my blocks forming towers and my crayons out drawing and doing my homework, and in high school it was nothing to find me doing my homework, watching tv while cooking dinner while teaching a younger sibling how to ride a bike and another how to do their homework and plan out a best friends birthday party...

even now my wife sometimes gets frustrated because I usually have so many different things going at the same time and she looks at me and says I thought integrated meant less chaos, and I laugh and say yes less chaos but still have the same abilities its just all in one now. I may not dissociate into alters now but I still retain the ability to multi task, multi think, multi do...
