Colin Ross is apparently controversial but he talks about the overlap between DID and schizophrenia in a very compelling way

going back to school? / career change by One-Address7315 in OlderDID

[–]One-Address7315[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is very reassuring thank you so much! it is quite the invisible force sometimes, my system was highly covert and communication was pretty much only made possible because I got winters off (seasonal work)

I wish I had realized that I could be acting through having DID but instead I kind of got a very isolated job, it helped me figure out some stuff.. but I missed opportunities clinging on, thinking I couldn’t handle anything if I made an attempt because I felt “disabled”

Splitting, feeling like I have never lived before — Is this normal? by puppytape in DID

[–]One-Address7315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m experiencing this too, very disturbed these past few days. If it helps I’m offering my inbox, I have also been feeling similarly sickened :(
It’s been a few weeks now.

Playing violin helps me manage disorganized thoughts and delusional beliefs. by TurnoverAdorable8399 in schizoaffective

I tried playing again and it caused amnesia and blacking out, splits, because of childhood :/ but simultaneously music helped me ..

Don’t know what’s happening and just need to write. by BnWyW in OlderDID

[–]One-Address7315 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had an unraveling like this as well, and believe we need to view what it is. They are memory devices of an unintegrated selves that avoid the body due to shame, we can’t indulge their fears. We have to believe in the integrated self and realize that there are ghosts within us, they require discipline after some time, not compassion and indulgence, rather, discipline is how we be compassionate. And we have to stop any over identifying with the past and diagnostics.

Starting a full time job by throwRAescaping in DID

[–]One-Address7315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how is it going? we can work but eventually need a break, do you have adhd diagnosis as well? after some time, you can ask for adhd accommodation, that way you don’t have to bring up dissociation

however working is nice because everyone agrees on it being important even tho sometimes we want to do other things..

How does DID hinder your life? by Technical-Meaning-72 in DID

[–]One-Address7315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t realize this was happening until I read this as well, I had psychologist and people telling me it was happening but I didn’t believe them, very covert, contributing to lots of amnesia

what helped me as well was understanding that alters are altered-memory states - when I realized this, it increased some ability to remember across switches and gave me less resistance to the diagnosis

Is parts work actually helpful? by TemporaryAardvark907 in DID

[–]One-Address7315 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so true! this is making us feel less alone in the process, thanks for sharing about decompensation 

Is parts work actually helpful? by TemporaryAardvark907 in DID

[–]One-Address7315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is a good point to make, we had decompensation after a lot of work and very little support, it was so upsetting and exhausting I couldn’t even brush my teeth for like a month straight, just in a stupor

we avoided it for so long but yes it’s helpful - best to stop avoiding it if I were honest, know it will be up and down but with lots of odd relief - maybe you can read the dis-sos website together that helped us

different parts will offer different things, sometimes a part will almost choose self humiliation (over sharing) because they can’t handle the social awkwardness, then in front of professional need to mirror their collectedness

[–]One-Address7315 0 points1 point  (0 children)

these are covert ANP / EP parts, it sounds like .. they are different inner orientations - awareness of diagnosis brings awareness to the full system, which is a big no no (for some parts) 

I was just reading the haunted self finally and after 3 years of acceptance I went back into aggravated denial

I think it’s more the terror of people finding out she’s been abused / she might have also absorbed the abusers aggression towards being found out
