That is pretty cool, dont you think? It wasnt jsut enough for you to get your own self/life together. I want to get a fuler understandin of DID and you want to take what you ahve learned and lived through and in part use it to help others who are suffering.

Thank you Amanda. Take care
I came to psych central on the recommendation of my treatment provider. I was at the point where all my alters were merging together with me and having some issues with what comes after the alters merge... full awareness, full range of emotions, functioning as one whole person not having alters taking control and much more. but at that point when I joined psych central there was no one else going through the same things. I was going to delete my account then but some members asked me to stay on so I did. there is a saying to help others is to help one self. i found that when I was helping others I was also helping me, that is why I say. some times when things get thebest of me I come here and read and remember things post to others and end up helping with my own problems. sometimes just reading other members posts helps me with my own problems.

being on psych central for me isnt about in your words....It wasnt jsut enough for you to get your own self/life together.....being here ....is ....what helps me during the hard times. its amazing what can help ones own problems by reading and replying to others. there are all kinds of therapy and being part of a mental health website is a kind of self therapy.
Thanks for this!
