Accepting my DID Diagnosis

[@bbak6049]

I was searching for videos about communicating with my parts (diagnosed last year) and found your wristband video. I am so glad to hear you got an official diagnosis. The validation is so helpful. I still struggle with denial and thinking I'm just crazy so hearing others experiences really does help. Thank you for being brave enough to put yourself out here to help other systems ❤

thanks for sharing. its definitely hard to feel safe telling people, but so necessary to have spaces where we don't have to hide/mask our differences.

hey man, I just found your channel and I’m way early in my mental health journey and the way you describe experiencing your voices is really similar to what I’m going through at the moment. And as a trans guy too it’s really comforting to come across your channel, so massive thanks

Internal ableism can be hard to get through. You’re not alone and I love hearing you talk about not wanting to hide it. I think it’s good to shield yourself from people who may exploit or harm you. I don’t have DID - I’m autistic and people have a lot of judgement on that. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for sharing your experience, dude! I really resonate with a lot of what you said, and it's always comforting to know I'm not alone :)

Sad that you had planned to make more videos in a few weeks, but didn't. Nobody is entitled to your work, of course, I just relate to what you say.

I've got some videos I'm planning on filming soon.

So contradictory. You feel like less people, but actually you are more 😂. But ye we get that feeling. Idk 🤷🏻‍♂️ we are five years along our journey now and it doesn’t bother us so much anymore, that strange calculation of one’s relative personhood. But we also stopped caring so much about telling people up front. We tell people we want to be actual friends with, but we have a tiered system for relationships. If it is just a casual thing, we don’t see the point for the most part. But once we like someone well enough we will tell them. It’s cool to be genuine with people, but choosing not to disclose everything about yourself doesn’t make you disingenuous. No one is owed the full truth of you. Actually beyond that, communicating the full truth of yourself is impossible. Choosing what and how much you choose to share of yourself is a genuine expression of you, and your level of comfort in a given situation. But that’s mostly for irl folks. On the interwebs we do not care. Dunno that that helps. ✌️
