If you have not entered into family counseling, that is a good next step.
I also suggest discussing with her treatment team how the ASD and DID overlap.

Actually she embraces it, very much so. To her, it makes all the sense in the world for the most part but it can be hard when dealing with her emotions since she's smack dab in the middle of puberty. *sigh* Emotions are hard enough I would think without feeling them from 4 other people.
