Sorry if I'm intruding but I came to think of something that did annoy me in the case of my diagnosed friend not having DID according to some and everything could be "normal".

It was said that in DSM it says you have to have several alters that have jobs. My friend does not have that. He as two different "hims". There are no others. So I actually do read this DSM (again) that is referred so much. And I notice it does not mention abuse, it does not mention alters and it does not mention alters with different jobs. It does not even say you have to have any kind of core personality.

I'm not sure why this is read into the manuals when it clearly does not say that. Undiagnosing my friend because he doesn't live up to DID in DSM, and reading it, he DOES. IDK, but now that I think of it, it tees me off. I was bulldozed over nothing. A lie.
