In one word - traumatic.
Four words: two hours of it.

It was freaking hard. Our psychologist came with us, thank goodness, and stepped in to help with grounding skills as needed (lots).
The psychiatrist asked soooooo many questions, and very few of them were not triggering. We feel like we've been run over by a bus. Ka-thunk.

Outcome: confirmation of DID and PTSD diagnoses. Recommendation to the therapy funding peoples - yes, thank you, long term.

Taking care of ourselves now in all the ways we know how.
