My T has told me many times and I have also read in books and online that DID is caused by severe and prolonged trauma experienced in childhood.I know that and I understand that.I know that it takes alot to cause it, I know that it takes severe abuse and that those that have it have been through some extremely horribe stuff as kids.

Sometimes though it's just hard to grasp and accept that I went through severe and prolonged trauma.That it happened to me.That I am one of those people like what you hear about or read about on the news or on Facebook.You know how you read or hear one of those sickining stories of child abuse and neglect and it makes you feel sick and feel so bad for the kid and think how horrible the parents are?

It's just hard to grasp that any of those stories could have been mine,that it happened to me too.I mean I know it happened but it's just so huge to comprehend sometimes.It's just bizarre to think about sometimes because from the outside I'm sure my family looked like the perfect upper middle class family.

Anyone else feel the same?
