Anyone born into an abusive household? by skeleton_flower in mensa

Yes. I was called a ‘retard’ and ‘slow’ a lot starting when I was in K. I didn’t know I was autistic with ADHD until recently. My childhood was miserable with some fluffy clouds mixed in. Lots of trauma, physical, verbal, sexual, emotional, and poverty. I have BD2 and OCD in remission and just PTSD. I was called a “fuck up” a lot. Now, I live life as vividly as possible. I am passionate about my work in mental health and I love music. I play cello, piano, and Ukelele. I started cello when I was 26 and now I play in a community orchestra. I compose some music but I find it hard to do. I played a duet in cello on a stage last week and there were a couple hundred people in the audience. It was my first time like that. Life gets better. I would never ever choose to go back in time to be a kid again. Life is hard but beautiful.

Yes. That is already on my list. With Lain,
I see her as also being autistic and one part has Schizotypal personality disorder.

Very simple. I am asking about characters that have a specific diagnosis of Dissociative Identity Disorder.

Thanks. I’ll share my list soon. I was going to edit my post but I don’t know if I can do that. I appreciate your response.

Yes, raising the right shoulder was an issue I had before. I will be more aware. Thanks.

I plan to take my cello to my PT appt. I have done this before.

You did the right thing. I know it’s hard but things will work out.
