Please tell me this is a big joke? You can't be serious? Is there really such a thing as DID? I mean, why? Why do I have to be stuck with stupid, self destructive people in my head? Why the heck am I pregnant?!?! This has to be a dream. Please let me wake up, I've been asleep long enough!! It's not funny, it's cruel!! Please help me! Get me out of here I don't want this anymore I can't stand it I don't want it!!!!!! I don't belong anywhere... I don't know anything and I hate it!! Where do I belong...? -Bryces

Hello:) I'm sorry you're going through so much. I wish it was a dream for you as well. DID is a self defense mechanism. I wish you didn't have to use it. But you've been through so much. I don't know where you belong. But I know you do have a purpose. And it is a good purpose. You're someone's everything. Someone's hope. Seems like you can't even save yourself sometimes I know. But maybe where you are weak another is strong and where you are strong another is weak. There is a doctor in Texas that could be helpful, but she's in Texas:S But remember you do belong somewhere. And it's not where you are now.

Not believing DID is real is a great way to tell yourself you don't have it and are the only/main personality.

seriously, who cares what we call it. all we can do is work with the symptoms and all of us experience it on a continuum, from less severe/debilitating to more severe.

you belong wherever you are! you belong as much as anyone, because no matter what anyone says, you are human, and that makes you belong!

Hi Bryces,
I hear your frustration and fear, and anger. It is hard to be in this situation, but you and the others you are with have survived some really terrible circumstances. I think you may still be in harm's way, if I understand some of the posts I've read. You are needed. It's not funny, and it's not fun, but it is. I'm sorry for that, but it needn't be the end of all things. I'm glad you are reaching out here. Hopefully you will find some encouragement as you do.
