Hello All,
I haven't been on here in a while due to not having very many issues lately with my DID. It's been quiet in my head lately. No nightmares. I'm not waking up ready to fight in the middle of the night either. Part of this I believe is due to my recovery from surgery. I'm home from the hospital and have been pretty much on bed rest. Besides taking my son to school and picking him up, I've been in bed all day or on the couch! The other day I was driving to my son's school and was overwhelmed with this feeling that I almost mistook for depersonalizion, but then realized what I was feeling was different. I was CALM! I'm NEVER calm. Im usually plagued by CONSTANT anxiety which I do take meds for. I'm unsure if the meds even help, but I think these three weeks I've spent away from life has truly helped to calm my mind, and that's what have eased my DID symptoms. I still think my alters are taking over at night, but I no longer care. The take overs don't bother me. The other issues in my life that bother me are not an issue right now either. I'm not sure how long this peaceful feeling will last, but I'm sure gonna try to enjoy it while I can!

Hi FuZZieONE, I have rarely if ever have anyone on PC complain about being too calm. But whatever you are doing keep doing it. That sounds just wonderful!
Enjoy it and keep your lifestyle steady. If you see things going the other way, don't hesitate to call your therapist or pdoc. Many people who are actively involved in Psych Central find it helps take them out of their own problems to develop empathy for others. And their problems though still there are more manageable. There are lots of compassionate people and always a need for more here that can make the load lighter by sharing and caring. Feel free to participate actively at Psych Central. Some people find the forums give them the compassion and empathy they seek. http://forums.psychcentral.com Please feel free to private message me or any of the Community Liaisons by left clicking on the name in blue to the left of their post) for questions or just to share.

As far as that goes, I'm happy for you, but for what it took for you to get there, that's messed up.
What meds are you taking now? They sound like they work better then your prescribed meds. Maybe keep taking these instead? Anyways, hope you keep feeling better from here on!

I was wondering where you went and what you were up to. I am glad you are on the mend from surgery and in recovery mode. Enjoy the calm.

Thank you all for the support
I'm still feeling relatively calm and stress free, which is really a nice change. Part of this nice feeling could also be that I haven't been going to therapy either. I think therapy was triggering my mood swings and personality switches. I'm thinking sometimes it may be better to let sleeping dogs lay...

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
