Sorry if anybody takes offense at this post but I have to get this off my chest. Also, sorry if I use the wrong words to describe things but I'm comfortable with the phrases myself and my doc use.

So here goes...

A lot of stuff I've read about D.I.D. doesn't make sense to me as that's not the way it is for me. So I can't really relate to it and I worry that even others with D.I.D. will find me too weird.

I.e. I never have any awareness at the time (or memory afterward) of being "different". A lot of people talk about being aware but say it's like watching someone else. That's never happened to me - I'm just not there!

Also, when my "little ones" are out they don't have the same capabilities as me. They don't have the capability to do things like come online. Their capabilities are limited by their age. I.e. "Baby" can't talk, she's too young. Sunshine is pre-school and barely speaks any English, she speaks my mother tongue which I can barely remember. "Rosie" doesn't understand even simple technology like phones, t.v.'s as though she's never seen any. etc etc

Okay, am I just TOO weird for not having any awareness, and are my "little ones" too weird too?

Maybe I've been mis-diagnosed or maybe the diagnosis/ symptoms just haven't been explained to me properly?
