If someone called me a multiple, I'd want to punch them. I think it's insulting.


Therapy for this kind of dissociation is laborious, time consuming, messy, and expensive. Integration is not really a goal, but cooperation is. First though, there is usually a lot of trauma to work through and daily living issues. A lot of people with DID are high functioning, so therapy works on the areas where there are problems in life. I can't relate at all to the very dramatic kind sometimes portrayed on forums, with the baby talk and nonsense. DID is a way to function and survive. It's hidden.
