Nancy, being DID is hard. But I've learned (since my diagnosis) that although treatment is hard to endure, DID is one of the few mental illnesses that can be cured. I pray you are getting the treatment you need.

Dissociative Identity Disorder. Usually caused by trauma/abuse; means person has suffered things that a person isn't built to endure and so the person dissociates to stay alive. Dissociation can mean spacing out, forgetting, and even coming up with new personalities so that there is part of you that is not affected by the abuse. It's a controversial diagnosis, some think it can't really happen. It includes the old category of Multiple Personality Disorder. That's the short version. If you have other questions, I'll answer to the best of my ability.

What? Where did you learn MPD/DID could be "cured?"
In the past 8 years have experienced this, and would you mind sharing how?
Thx
