(((((Turquoise))))) 
Thank you so much for your words, and for the hugs!! It really helped take some heaviness off of my heart this morning!!
I don't think my friends really understand, but then again, I think they do. I am thinking of printing off a little something that explains DID and giving it to them both to read...if the choose too. My fear is that they won't.
I was doing the local DBT program in my area last year and was sharing with them about it. There was a little 2 hour seminar for friends/family, to help give them support and give them a chance to ask questions about the DBT and share their concerns about their loved ones. I asked them if they would go and told them I would pay for it. They were reluctant, but said yes. Then I found out that the seminar was ONLY for the friends and fam, and that I couldn't be there with them. When I told them this they looked at eachother and said...."Oh...well we don't need to go to therapy for you."
I didn't know how to take this....? 
Anyway.....I am ranting again.....
Thanks for being here!! You really helped me to feel better!!
