As a person diagnosised 23 years ago as MPD and having undergone that many years of therapy. It is my opinion, that alters may see situations from different perspectives - however, that is not lying. I don't believe.. but I am not a T, pdoc, or doctor, that everytime that you run off you would split. Perhaps, the alters are there already. But it seems to me that the same alter would do the running off - not a different one each time. An alter that has trouble being in a relationship would in my opinion be the one doing the running - cause she is the scared one. So I guess that is difficult for me to understand that each time she uses a different name. But our "systems" are very complex, so perhaps one alter is doing the running and she is "wise' enough to use a different name. Only she could tell you that.

DID is an ever changing "environment", in therapy as alters gain co-consiousness and perhaps merge.. the person may appear to become more and less of what they already are - ie extremely outgoing.. maybe merge with less outgoing.. so end result is a medium out going alter. Just a kind of simple example.

Living with a person with DID is never dull, it is exciting, rewarding, unexplainable, challenging, unique - you will never get an experience like this again.. worth doing... if the "right" person for you - just like any other relationship.

However, like any relationship.. it will have up's and down's and inbetween's

That is my opinion.. though other's may disagree.

Respect meant for all that have DID intended in my response to this person. I felt that I had to answer, however, I value my relationship in this forum and would not want to hurt anyone.

Sincerely,
freewill
