DID/OSDD is a lifetime condition. I suspected at 15 but ignored it till I was 46, but there are other affected people that can live, not know, and be prosperous to the very end.
So, you can see, there's a little/lotta more too it. If you have concerns, a visit with a therapist can help discern any concerns that you might have.  |
I'm going to look up those other acronyms for full descriptions in a minute.
I have an appointment with my therapist tomorrow. I've been medicated for over 2 decades and I've done therapy in the past. Medication helped A LOT, but for some reason this past August I had a rough time which brought me here. I took the Sanity Quiz and I actually had a high score for Dissociation. The thing that really drove me to therapy was that my HIGHEST score was for Borderline and that's a diagnosis I've never had.
Slightly off topic, but I feel like a fvcked up Mom like my Mom. When she was hospitalized for something physical I told them I think she's depressed and they need to look at her. Eventually she ended up on Seroquel so you can see where my Bipolar came from.
Getting back to being a fvcked up Mom, my son is 23. I asked him to take the Sanity Quiz. Absolutely NOTHING was highlighted. I've got like 9 things to look into and he's perfectly normal. He's also one of the most self aware people I know so I'd sooner trust his test than my own. Funny how that goes.....
