Discovering My Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) Episode 2

[@amethyst775]

it’s so nice to hear someone talk in depth about their journey. massive respect to you for letting us hear this, this stuff is super hard. the part where you talked about having different opinions on your dad and it would get muddled and disorienting is so relatable. we are trying so hard to keep distance from our mom but everyone in my system has such different feelings about her and it’s incredibly hard for all of us. it’s beyond healing to hear that we arent alone in this struggle

I really appreciate the fact that you are so natural and low-key. I can't identify with the girls who wear weird make-up and adopt bizarre personas. If we all presented like that, we'd be ID'd in a heart-beat, and that's not why our parts were created! Thanks for keepin it real!!!

When you talk about the voices I know exactly what you mean because I’ve always thought this about myself and wondered why I was having conversations with my self in other like perspectives or something. Sex was always one of the biggest challenges for me because it keeps your from being presently there in the moment when so many thoughts are going through your head and if your not into the sex it physically hurts. 🙏 you’re an inspiration and I think you are so brave to tell your story!

I know the feeling that you're suddenly isolated and the world drops away when it hits

Thank you both for these videos. I think it is incredibly important that those of us with DID/OSDD that are willing, share our experiences in a way that is accessible to others so that we can learn from and help each other reach better understanding. As you mentioned each system is unique based on how we ended up structured from the trauma and how we had to navigate everyday life. Love that your husband is helping you tell the story. Having support like that is amazing and important. - Sam

@@emilymontefusco2789 Thanks so much for sharing, currently discovering my own DID system. I was also unaware for years of how much dissociation and amnesia I have, exactly as you shared how is the person suffering from it all supposed to know how bad it is, or even that it's not normal when it's always been your normal. Anyways thanks for sharing.

I had that Exact Non reaction to finding out my parents trafficked me. I was unsuprised. That should’ve been a red flag. We also have the same random Massive reactions that aren’t typical of the host
