Dissociative Identity Disorder

Dissociative Identity Disorder

High everybody who's here to help 🙈🙉🙊

I'm eager to hear anyone's stories with discovering they have a system of personalities living inside the one body...

I have just discovered I fall into this category 😦

For most of my life my selves were kept separate and didn't know of each other. I've recently begun a journey of knowledge and acceptance. As you all know, self discovery can be painful ..

One of us knows everything, and the version of me that is now gone, is the one that knew nothing. So I guess a new identity is emerging as the knowledge that evil exist and the flashes of memories come flooding in to change me.. hoping for the better!

Any advice welcomed

Also just discovered I am Aboriginal. So lots of knew emotions and feelings about that.

My what a wild ride this is turning out to be!

Much love and appreciation for any replies

Hi @IzitHumane

Is a good resource

I recommend the book "The haunted self" https://www.amazon.com.au/Haunted-Structural-Dissociation-Treatment-Traumatization/dp/0393704017/ref=asc_df_0393704017?mcid=6adc6fa4388838569ed1be0c8215a5fb&tag=googleshopdsk-22&linkCode=df0&hvadid=712274881138&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9420759756526592181&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9071255&hvtargid=pla-357235115994&psc=1&gad_source=1

Re: Dissociative Identity Disorder

Sorry I didn't particularly address your actual question

I don't remember finding out or discovery. Which is the nature of the beast
