questioning...

I question my worth and value as a person that is in bits, parts and pieces..

though I would never dream of questioning the value of any other person with DID.

God's will or Man's will, my faith stuggles constantly... I still after all these many years struggle with acceptance...

And yet with acceptance, will it improve my life.. will anything really improve it? I am tired, I wish to lay down and never wake up....

((((((((((((((((((((((((((freewill)))))))))))))))))))))) Sometimes it takes a long time to heal. During that time it can be very difficult and easy to become weary and discouraged. I hope you will start to see what a good person you are and accept yourself for that. I am sorry you are struggling so much. Please take care.

You ask if acceptance will improve your life....My answer to you is YES, undeniable it can improve your life.

When you accept yourself for who you are, others in your world that you already know or those who you will meet will accept you more readily too.

Acceptance doesn't mean that you stop striving to better yourself, it means you can be comfortable with who you are now and know you can work towards bettering whatever you feel needs to be worked on. It will give you a renewed sense of self, a sense of worth and a sense of hope for the future.

I accept you for who you are, no questions, no expectations of who I think you should be. For it would not matter what I think who you should be, what matters is what YOU think.

I have struggled most of my life with low self esteem and little to no acceptance of who I was as a person. I've managed to turn all that around to a point where I do accept myself, warts and all. I'm still a work in progress and have much to learn and strive for, but I now have an inner peace that I never knew before.

You are worth every ounce of energy you put into yourself. I hope one day soon you will understand and know that you are a very special person with much to offer.

I hear you and i understand what you struggle with. Accepting one's self is hard as we struggle with our own demons and the pressures of what we think others expect. i am just beginning to have an ounce of understanding. Maybe that is because i have been looking or maybe it is that others here have opened my eyes to what it is to have acceptance enough to at least look at the possibilty. Whatever it is, I hope you will continue to reach out and draw strength from others until you feel your own strength begin to grow. Maybe together we can find that strength to keep reaching and keep searching.

Surrounding one's self with support and love can help us open the door to acceptance eventually if we continue to reach until we can believe it ourself. I also feel the bits, pieces, and parts--and question myself. But sometimes what two people can do together can be amazing. I will be here for you and cheer you on as you take one step one day at a time--how ever small or big that step may be. You are so valuable to me and others here but most importantly, you are valuable to you.

I am sorry you are feeling this way but know you are not alone. And when it seems you cannot go another step, take my hand and we will walk another step together until you get your strength back. You are worth it freewill--you have alot to offer--and you have already.

Acceptance is something many of us struggle with. I still have those inside that don't accept the DID. For those of us inside that have, it was very liberating.

It didn't mean that I approved, it just means that I accepted the DID for what it is. Accepting allows the healing process to continue.

DID is difficult to live with, but as the others and I heal, it all gets better somehow.

DID is actually a very creative and sophisticated way to survive. But now, it's time to thrive. Acceptance is one of the first steps to thriving.
