Also , what about being DID but co-conscious? This has been confusing me and T's for several years. Some say I'm not. Some say I am DID, but co-conscious.
I explained it to t (in a really simple way) by the abstract painting she has on her wall.
I am going to include an example in here.


So - for example, if I am in the big dark pink square, I know nothing of the light blue square - it is too far away. Some days I may know of the little light pink square. If i then move into the orange square, i know all about orange, but not pink or blue. If i move in to the blue square, i know know the information in blude - but not orange or pink. Make any sense? Yet it is all a whole... one picture. But I move through the parts of it. Then when I know info is missing because someone asks, I have to move back to that square to pick it up - but then lose what ever i had in the other square. So then i have to make notes as i move through them and gain the info in the different parts. That to me is co-consciousness... it probably looks different for others. Now sometimes, certain parts will take over due to a trigger, and I am stuck (say in the little pink square) until i can get grounded enough to have more awareness (or more squares). When I am co-conscious, i may or may not have knoweldge of those other parts at the time.
Say, sometimes I am in that outer rim of grey that connects a lot of squares - then i have more info and can hear the needs of the others.
make any sense??
