I guess I see all the people whose alters are coming our and getting together here as being more than a little over the top. I have a difficult time seeing this as being helpful to anyone who dissociates and wants to be able to function as fully as she possibly can in life, with or without therapy. Chatting about activities and ways to help ourselves and each other is a good thing. But, I guess I see this other stuff as sensationalism or encouraging sensationalism.
I apologize to anyone who feels hurt by what I saw. Remember this is my opinion. I didnt write the book on DID and god only knows hoyw typical my expreince is. However, I do find it makes me extremely tired reading these things, and as I do, feeling as if I just stepped into a very weird and potentially dangerous lala land.

Hi. Being I'm the only crazy one on here that has no problem of posting stuff that you wouldn't post....excuse me. I cant help to feel somewhat offended by your little remark of "theatrical". Walk in our shoes for a day, then do it for 48 years.....its like bouncing off walls and torn in 20 different directions at once all the time with breakdown after breakdown. Theatrics is trying to not kill yourself everytime you smile. I keep asking why am I alive? They wont let me kill us.
No worries...I'll be keeping our crazy to our selves. I've asked Jon to scrub this account so I dont bother anyone.. Hows that for theatrics. Like I've always said, this is such a lonely condition....like I got control over whats said. Its taken 48 years to finally have the nerve to express and speakout, and everytime we do...slam.
Our history...jails, instituions, hospitals, job loss, mental emotional breakdowns, 20 years of emotional, mental, physical, sexual SR abuse. 4 divorces, bipolarsm, alcholic drug addict (can you blame us).... We are very theatrical.
I just want to thank the rest for your support through our initial worse...but we found freedom finally...sorry to offend anyone. Sure we got a little free on here...but we are nuts. Obviously its too much for anyone to really bare.
I do admit, we can be quite the drama queen...but were just open and free.
Actually...Im not too bothered by all this, I think I find it rather funny. Some of the others are laughing, too.
I wish you all great healing and recovery....everyone. Thank-you.
Ta-ta
