...See more Hey everyone, I have actually no idea how long I've known about DID but for the past two years I've been seriously trying to find out if I might have it. I know many people would suggest that I see a specialist but I won't and later I'll say why. I already told my psychologist and psychiatrist. One of them has no idea what that is, and the other one didn't really pay attention to what I was saying/ I was being too chaotic about it. The reason behind why I'm not seeking a specialist is 1) I'm scared of medical environments and doctors 2) I have no severe trauma 3) How DID is taken in my country is making me sick. I don't like it at all and I just hate the thought of someone else in my life knowing I have it (if I do) and how I'd be treated. So I need your help, if you could tell me your symptoms, how you experience switching/ interaction with other headmates, how do you experience amnesia etc., anything would help because I'm on my own for now and I can only do so much research, plus I find myself relating to and believing people like this more. Or maybe what "stereotype" about DID you know and how it is or isn't accurate to your experience. Anything would be helpful. Thank you for reading and have a nice day :)

...See more After many many many weeks, I put on some less oversized clothes. Parents don't like that I have pimples? Because I don't drink enough water and shower and wear too warm clothes and I don't go outside much? ... today I wanted to try to have a normal t-shirt on... instant regret. I hate it. I hate my body so much. So I knew I had to ignore it because, haha, an*rexia... but nooooo that just have to point it out. I know this isn't such a big deal and I'm not really sure why it upset me that much... it's just that these things are happening for too long and I can't handle it any more...
