On top of that only an extremely small percentage of therapists have experience with DID. And among the few who have DID experience there's a wide spectrum. A lot of therapists don't see alters as conscious people. The psychologist who diagnosed me with DID one day asked me if a specific part was a spirit. At the time that shook me so badly. I felt like saying to him, "How dare you even think that!" But now, it's all so very clear to me what my "parts" were. I should have answered "Most likely."
