....a sign, tag, or medical bracelet that told of your DID condition?
Me myself might to explain my eccentricism but not for sympathy. It might be beneficial also because I've been reading that different alters can have differing effects to like medication, check ups, and physical ailments, like a child alter physical reaction compared to an adult alter- if this is true. Freaky stuff. I do know that I have a higher pain tolerance then the others to the point that I can barely feel it. I've been punched and it felt like a thump, shot myself in the knee with a nailgun and was drinking a beer waiting for the ambulance, also broke my leg in four places but was more crying over the fact that I couldn't work for the next 3 months (never mind I was blitzed). Robbie crys over a paper cut. Sheesh, lol. |

No. I don't need it. Sometimes we get triggered by stuff but we are rarely in a position where a child alter or other is out in an inappropriate way for the circumstances. The times when it does happen the recognition of it being inappropriate immediately triggers another switch to an alter who can 'cover the tracks'.
We also have a high pain tolerance. eg we gave birth to our children in complete silence without any meds or intervention. More severe injuries like broken bones, cuts requiring stitches, are not felt. Things like toothaches and headaches are the worst. Can't dissociate them. |

One time we had a M.D. Appointment and a little wanted the doc know that we were a multiple due to physicalities and kept telling him and wouldn't quit. I was watching but couldn't inner act. Then the nurse taking our blood was talking about dogs and our little kept going on about our dog and the nurse gave us the weirdest look. Anyways, the doctor looked liked he was weirding on us, then I was able to ask a question about a drug...it felt like the bonds were let loose...then he started grinning at me when I came out- from a littles voice to a deep mans voice...I caught on and ignored it because I wanted an answer. Lol
We are just so switchy and nutzzy that I wish that it was valid to offer us the appropiate treatment approach, instead of laughter and ridicule. |

Oh, yeah. I can relate to that kind of stuff too. That does happen a lot and it is hella embarrassing. I guess I was just associating a medic bracelet with emergency type situations (as opposed to emergence-y ones
 ) Not so long go a random dr (our normal one was away, not that he knows about our DID either) looked at me weird and said "What just happened? You are soooo different to when you first walked in here." I get that kind of stuff a little. Not every day though. Ha, or when our new t was asking us about our kids father, but a kid one of us was out and she had never even met the children's father before. T was looking at kid squirm while she asked all about the relationship. Kid pretty much just wanted her to shut up already! (Kid was trying really hard to keep the secret about our did so trying very hard not to appear to be herself. Very complicated. ) |

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