My wife has it and we are used to it but it is hard at times. She has had over 200 over the years.

I knew one that saw himself as part "angel" it looks distressing, for me I have epilepsy linked to certain triggers like music but my seizures more or less feels like something trying to "break through" like something bitter or sadistic. I still don't know why I developed epilepsy at age 25 but I do know I did have a SEVERE childhood and abused as a adult. And my seizures cause me to have "fake memories" or occasionally hear a voice... I'm just happy when I dissociate it's quick and I go back to normal withing minutes 😢

I have a strange question and I don’t want to be rude or anything (I don’t know if this is or not) but if you alter if you memorize a song when you alter do they know the song lyrics to ( I don’t know how to word it) also do different hosts have different music taste and would they remember songs lyrics but another host wouldn’t.

U have 3 personalities and its hard coz everyone around u cant accept u and just think ur crazy and ur different.. i hate having 3 personality child, mature and immature

[umblee]

As someone who has DID, i feel really seen.

[LiEnby]

I think it’s interesting that my first reaction wasn’t really “how to get rid of them” ngl

[omegauzumaki]

Not to be rude but i am very curious


When someone switches to a different personality, are they still themselves? Like are they aware that they are acting different nd stuff or is it like being a whole other person and you dont realise it at all?

[JoshuaDiGiacoma]

can those with DID properly consent to sexual activity?

what if there is an alter that is "underage" ?

[Ohkeh]

Wish I could get rid of mine I’m so depressed

I have alters as well I, the host, is mentally 16. Our original host went dormant switching me(Jinx) to the host of our system. Then we have Carson who is a very monotone male and he is 15. Then Venus who is in xer 20s and xe has a slight British accent. And finally Esther who is a female little, she is 8. I front majorly and Esther will usually stay in Co Front.

I’m not sure if I have did or bpd because like my friends I’m very two faced with them it’s like when they want to talk to me or send videos it makes me pissed off idk if that’s normal or not sometimes I don’t even know what I am

[Xeno-Conner]

As a person with DID at a young age witch is rare i dont really fight it

[msmbdy]

I have 3 alters one of them is (These are originally my gacha ocs i created these gacha ocs to represent my different alters)

Rina - The mature, calm, and normal side of me.. deep voice/normal voice, And a psychopath i guess?

Livia - Laughs psychopathically at very inappropriate times and i can't stop it
and very sensitive/highly aggressive
kinda rude and not that friendly/A sociopath, high pitched voice (when angry)
this alter is the reason why i stay away and avoid people because i suddenly hit people uncontrollably with this alter and this alter comes out and controls me almost most of the time

Emmi - Acts like a kid with adhd/very silly/also sensitive and can be annoying bcz she has adhd, soft voice

whenever either Emmi and Livia come out i am just like “What in the world did i just do” and “What am i even doing??” or “Why did i even say that..”

I also distant for a long time and the place around me just double visions or sometimes turns white and black (it's kinda scary and eerie)
and i also hear voices sometimes that i can't explain..??

I don't know if i actually have this disorder or just overreacting..

[BrownWoman]

If it wasn't for the movie "Split, " I would have never known about this .

[Iz-On-Pawz-gc]

I have over 20 alters I believe. We have 10 Littles. My first alter was named Lunar….

[BoricuaChrist]

One of the biggest lies you will hear in this society is that you cant het rid of DID … it more spiritual than physical but if you wont acknowledge the spiritual aspect you will be stuck with it … Only Jesus can brake those chains

[TheBlueFox_]

I think I have it. Personally I think it’s cool. Because I can talk to my favorite characters and I have multiple of my comfort characters. And I see them as friends ^^

This is disasociative disorder this is not multiple personalities we are many things alm i one this woman’s brain likely did not fuse together by age seven due to trauma . Bro also she will need to learn how to incorporate theses aspects to be one and only one person becaise this will and does not work for peole for ever

[Influx]

"these things". Way to skip over the extreme trauma (i.e. rape) at an extremely young age (between 1 and 4) that causes DID.

[tracyhill]

I had altars before Jesus got rid of them. I had a nervous breakdown at 3 due to trauma. So when pressure came I sent them out to accomplish different tasks. One day Jesus told me it was time to tell them goodbye because they were demons. I had gotten used to them because they were there for years. But, when Jesus open my spirtual eyes to recognize they were demons. I rejected them and cast them out in His name. Jesus made me whole. So I did not need them seeing I had the Holy Spirit.. Giving Jesus praise. Jesus Chrust is Lord.😊
