w/e

we don't even classify as human to most so who gives a feck?

I classify you as human. I bet Anna my little does too. Hang in there and know you are all loved.

It doesn't matter what anyone thinks. You know you are human and that is all that will ever matter.

thanx, i have littles too, they like to play, but they hurt a lot, guess i join them tonite. hugs

I believe you're human and this is the first time I have encountered you on the forum. When I was in the process of uncovering the rest of the gang, it was very important to limit who I shared them with. I had a couple of very close friends who knew my folks....but only the ones who were ok with being known.

I made a mistake in telling a fellow therapist about some of them. The next thing I know, she had alters built on those I told her about. She tried to steal my people. She did not have DID anymore than my dog did. My inner folks were livid and I had a lot of internal damage control to contend with. Lesson learned.

I believe with DID, everybody wins or everybody loses. The folks who are out most have of thetime have a duty to protect the wounded ones......as in not put them out for people to further abuse. Share only when it is safe.

Hug the gang,

Sabra

Your welcome! As of today i have three alters that have come out and talked to my boyfriend and T both. I personally feel confused as heck! I don't remember missing times this much since i was a kid!

what people classify you as should not matter, the fact that you have thoughts and feelings does matter, and i for one do give a feck!

I don't know what w/e means but I'm glad to see you around carrie ann!

of cost thug are human.my friend

w/e = whatever? I have been awake most the night trying to work that one out! Lol!

yes unfortunately lr fortunately depending on a persons own treatment plans, location , culture, religion.....some dont "classify" alternate personalities as "human"

for example the diagnostic criteria calls those that are with in....alternate personalities, identity's...

here in New York treatment providers use definitions of a human is the person born to the body (bones, mucles, blood...all those physical tangible properties of a human body, ) and the definition of a a humans personality is the thinking process...how one thinks/perceives their self, how one interacts with their friends, family, community,..

here in New York which is in the USA depending upon the type of alternate personalities they are and what mental disorder the person has, those with in are called alternate personalities, identities, ego states, alters, parts, fragments, protectors, hallucinations, delusions, persecutors, introjects and many other names that describe, what they are, who they are, how they were created, what mental disorder the person has, and other diagnostics type questions treatment providers use to classify mental disorders and determine which type of insider a person has. there are other terms to to describe a persons personality whether that personality is split off or not like funny, happy, sad, angry and other moods/emotions.

having DID in New York is a Catch22 kind of thing, the treatment providers, society and the American psychiatric association doesnt consider the insiders to be human because they dont have their own physical body, they share the hosts body. but yet each alter and sometimes the host .....feels....perceives...thinks of....those with in as separate human being..

with me it never mattered whether my alters were human or not, they were how ever they were before I was diagnosed so after I was diagnosed they continued to be who ever and how ever they were. like my therapist told me after diagnosing nothing changes what already is. it only puts a name to whats /who is already there. so I never worried about what my alters were called and they never worried about that either. for 20 plus years they were what ever they were created for, they had their own jobs, purposes and reasons for being and someone telling them you're not human doesnt change that. so they didnt worry about being called alters, parts, introjects, protectors and all the other words to describe them.

it doesnt matter what you are called, all that matters is that you are there, and there for a reason, you have a job , purpose and reason for being, nothing will ever changes that.

I do know what feck means! How are you doing now?

pegs, feck is a politer way of saying a swear word made by changing the 'e' to a 'u'!
