Multiple Personalities Support Group
Dissociative identity disorder is a diagnosis described as the existence in an individual of two or more distinct identities or personalities, each with its own pattern of perceiving and interacting with the environment. At least two of these personalities are considered to routinely take control of the individual's behavior, and there is also some associated memory loss,...
Hi-
I'm too much reality, and am fairly new to Daily Strength.
Welcome to all others who have joined.
Thank you to everyone that was here prior to me.
This is the first group or community I've seen/been part of for DID/MPD. It is quite scary, to me to be out on a public forum, in regard to this topic. I have been stomped on in the past, for trying to show /be supportive of another person who was mpd, on another board. So I feel a bit timid.
What experiences have you had, after acknowledging being DID/MPD?
While I see messages saying that others want to get to know other people with this disorder, I just see one post about it and it stops. Why? Do you really NOT want to communicate with others?
Why does it seem that these topics got started and then abandoned?
Have you found support for this diagnosis, anywhere? If so where?
While I have found support, it has not been specifically related to MPD. And while I do love some of the people I've gotten to know, and hope to remain friends with them, I am also interested in finding friends that are familiar with this disorder.
Have you found any other helpful websites that deal with this issue?
I thought I was pretty much in control of this whole thing, (not totally)- until this past year. Now I feel like I am scattered, and not really together (present) very often. Most of every day seems to be lost, for me and everything takes a LONG time to do -another word I would use to describe me, right now, is random.
While I do feel I know what 'set things off'- I don't know how to make it stop.
I know I have big time trust issues...
If you don't want to answer publicly here- please send me a message!
Thanks so much

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
I'm sending you a message...

jg-how are things today? how are you?
readerjewel- someone else being mean, isn't your fault. Are you OK?
shadow- thanks for the hugs! It's nice to have support. How are you?
It is SO true- We did not create this issue, somone else did that.
I am amazed, that everytime I come back and read the same messages, it's like seeing brand new ones! sometimes they don't make sense to me, other times they make sense one way then the next time... (you get it). I know that is because different ones are reading and comprehending...
HI again to everyone
Sorry. I really didn't abandon this thread or the people... I just -i don't know what I do.
but I'm sorry to have not been back for so long.
it really is weird, I read through this whole thing again tonight. I felt like I was seeing it for the first time! I even had to read stuff that I wrote.

I'm new to this site. First time ever on a MPD/DID support room. I am so anxious to talk to someone who understands what I am going through. I already want to erase the posts I have made because I'm being told I'm fibbing again. I am REALLY struggling with the possibility of having DID. I guess I could acept the DID if I weren't so afraid to look at the reason I have it. When ever I think I'm remembering something I am beat up and told I lied. All of it is a lie. Im babbeling, Im sorry. I dont know what to say and I have so much to say. I could go on and on. Does anyone out there have a problem beleiving their memories?
