I have put the link below to the Forbes article on it. Apparently it will be free to any Windows 7 or 8 user for up to a year after it's release (if you want it you need to upgrade before July 29, 2016). I'm not a Windows user, but thought I would put this out there for any of you who are and...

That's the same age as my T, and also the same age of retirement here (at least in my province).

Well I through it in at the end of an email with a feedback form both wanted for the group therapy weekends. Put it in a joking manner, so I will see if she brings it up next week. Said something along the lines of "for the love of god, please don't retire anytime soon"

I'm hoping that T learns how to clone herself, so that way when she does eventually retire, her clone can continue on. Unrealistic, but I can hope right?

I had a group therapy weekend this weekend, my T was a facilitator, and there was another T there facilitating. The other T announced that she was retiring (her and T ended up saying their ages), so T is only a year younger than this other T who is retiring. And cue the fear. I just got my...

@greenleaf that's a tough one for me, I'm not very kind to Little. I haven't connected with any other parts, I don't "feel" them the same way I feel Little, I just feel like a stirring happening in me - like a mini tornado. So I'm not harsh with any others. But I am very critical of Little, very...

I think before I my first ever appointment with my current T I googled her to look for reviews, and came across her LinkedIn profile. I checked it out, and then LinkedIn notified me that she had looked at my profile a few days after that. Didn't bother me, it was fair game. It caught me off...

Update: Last week in therapy my little (named Little) wanted to come out and talk to my T. I sometimes have co-consciousness with her, it seems to depend on how intense her feelings are. I wouldn't let Little out to talk to T, it ended up being a bickering match in my head between Little and I...

There's an update in this thread: Questions For Anyone With Did

So FLUFFY!!! Thanks for the update @Nicolette :)

If anyone read my thread from a week or so ago - T Thinks I Have Did? - you know that T recently (last two weeks) has said that she thinks I have DID. I go to a new psychiatrist on Tuesday and hopefully then they will tell me one way or another if they agree with T. Anyways, I think I posted in...

It's been almost 2 weeks now since a Lily update... sad face.

Oh and also I had a dream(?) last night that someone burnt my safe place down... well it was the entire protected meadow/house/vault for memories that was lit on fire, completely torched.

@PTSDbegone I had my session with T yesterday. We talked quite a bit about DID, my fears about it, she helped me with my safe place thing. Hard to describe without writing out the whole thing, but essentially it's a safe place (written in the book she gave me) that no one can come into unless I...

@PTSDbegone my T said a similar thing last week, that she can help me with integration if this is the case. The more I sit and read, the more I agree with T, but on the flip-side I do get more scared/nervous. I see T tomorrow though, so I have lots of questions for her about what I read in the...

It is completely normal. T actually explained this to me. It's a fear response, when someone experiences fear/anxiety it is normal to void your bowels/bladder. In intense fear situations it is so involuntary that people will wet/mess themselves. In situations like this we experience frequent...

I'm trying not to fall apart. I'm trying to keep myself occupied between the book T gave me, and studying for two midterms (started University at the beginning of the month for the summer session). I need to keep my sh*t together enough to do well in school, but also to participate in therapy to...

@Hope4Now it's called "Understanding Trauma and Dissociation: A Guide for Therapists, Patients, and Loved Ones" by Lynn Mary Karjala, Ph.D. My T said that it can't be purchased in bookstores, I think she got it online. But it's a really thin book, easy to read, and doesn't put things in a...

@scout86 I see how T would think DID is a possibility, I'm just not happy about it. Last night I read through about half of the book she gave me, and it really made me think about some incidents that have happened over the last 3 years. DID makes sense of it, but at the same time makes me a...

@JEKBreatheandBelieve thank you for sharing. I think one of my biggest fears if it turns out I do actually have DID is my parts coming out in therapy. It's a scary concept for me. I feel like it's a lack of control, and I'm very much a control freak. @Sammyiam thank you for sharing, and I think...

@theshadowoftheliving I agree it is important to get the right care. That's why I'm glad my T has almost as many years experience treating DID as I've been alive.

I needed to hear that. It's hard to be labelled, but I guess without labelling then proper treatment can't be provided. No, it's not the only time. I've only recently been aware of this happening, this specific incident was the most severe though. I've been losing chunks of time frequently...

I'm really shaken up after my session with my T today. We talked about the serious dissociation incident I had about 1.5 weeks ago where I "woke up" having sex with a random guy I didn't know. [Side note: got tested, and I didn't get anything nasty from the guy. Now to wait until I can take a...

Can you clone her and send her clone to Canada for me? I'm not normally a fan of little dogs (I prefer medium to large) but she is just so sweet and precious. It looks like she brings a lot of joy and excitement to your home @Nicolette and @anthony

@Nicolette she is just too stinking cute. Those eyes! How do you ever say no to her?
