Very good points to remember. And you are right DID is NO joke. I hope I didn't offend you, or cause you to think that I was implying it was. This was not my intention.

When I was first diagnosed, I didn't know what was up. I had some thoughts and ideas, but I was really needing to figure things out.

The Doc that initially diagnosed me was a PhD and specializes in DID. I remember sitting on the couch talking with her and then she asked me to tell her about my others. I was able to make it through telling her about one, but while I was telling her about the second all I remember is that I got real dizzy, was flooded with hurt, got small and began to cry and I couldn't talk anymore. It was as if someone placed a steel plate over my mouth. My 9 yr old never speaks. He just sulks and cries. Sometimes he lashes out in anger but it's usually out of protection for the others.

She brought me back out of it but now looking back on it the whole thing seems like a dream and I don't remember much.
