I don't know...maybe it's not so important to have labels. If the docs need them, I really don't care. My tribe is who they are and it amuses
me that people believe they can imagine what the journey of a multiple is like. It's like saying you know what it's like to be a quadriplegic or
terribly crippled. IF YOU DON'T LIVE THAT LIFE, YOU CAN NEVER
COMPREHEND IT. So they can keep their labels. I will struggle for control as I have for 55 years.
And I don't really understand that five year old age limit thing. Perhaps
that poster can explain it to me? The main part of my abuse occurred
when I was between the ages of ten and eighteen.
I keep reading in here about all the new theories and the different types of DID and all the labels they want to slap on us. When they figure out
how the brain pulls this trick off-then I'll listen. The truth is that the study of neurobiology is still in it's infancy. DID is still as much of a mystery as DNA.
All I know is that after all these years I am still a survivor...and perhaps
my tribe is responsible for that.
