This applies to my case:
"But many therapists flex the boundaries in working with dissociative identity disorder and I agree wholeheartedly with that: you can’t cram 50 parts of the personality into 50 minutes; you can’t squeeze the trauma of disorganised attachment into six sessions. And in most therapeutic dyads, contact between sessions is part of the contract: it is hard for dissociative survivors, especially when in crisis, to contain their distress without support or a ‘safe haven’ for 7 long days and 7 even longer nights. And working with it is prolonged work, and intense work, and many of us have missed out on a raft of tiny but normal human interactions so that being offered a cup of tea can model self-care and comfort and nurture a thousand times faster than talking about it ever will. Perhaps this is why therapy in the private sector seems so much better equipped to work with dissociative identity disorder, where individual therapists can take thoughtful risks and work according to their own clinical judgement rather than being constrained by policies and procedures and risk assessments that at times seem designed to safeguard the institution more than they are there to empower the disempowered."
