Your moderator badge is prominently displayed on your profile. Every comment you make is a reflection on the leadership of this site. You shouldn't have to be told that. Obviously that goes with the role that someone, at some time, thought you were a good fit for. You literally mansplained SD...

I'm not sure what to make of your comment as a moderator. That certainly wasn't the advice of my therapist. I can hear the condescending tone in your post. I can not believe your arrogance. This was not a self-diagnosis and you shouldn't feel so comfortable sauntering around un-diagnosing...

I try to stay in mother part too... I just found out about structural dissociation a few days ago I don't know what my parts are...should I? I think there's probably a little girl and teenage party goblin at least.

Yesss! Just like a graviton! That's so funny you mentioned it because I had literally typed it out then deleted it because I didn't know if anyone would get it. Lol.

If you have structural disociation with Apparently Normal Part(s) and Emotional Parts, can you "feel" when your switching? Does it have obvious signs? Sometimes I dissociative worse than others and the room is constantly spinning. It feels like there's G-force pushing against me. Lots of visual...

My T told me something similar recently. I told him I was tired of feeling angry and bitter. That I wanted to let go of the anger. I shared with him some quote off a Buddha meme on FB that said "holding on to anger is like holding on to a hot coal--you are the one that gets burned". But to my...

I can't remember what I came on here to post. Dissociation is too strong when I try to talk about it. I think I was going to ask what I should do if this rings true for me? I think I have secondary structural dissociation. I want to fix it. I want to get off disability and get a job. Stop being...

Not cool that you don't have your own means of transportation! I can see that being a recipe for setting you up for stormy waters ahead. Im glad they're being supportive now. Hang in there.

I've gone no-contact with her, with a couple slip-ups over the years :( No contact is the only way. I have thought about Al Anon, but I dislike being in groups so much...lol. I used to drink a lot myself, but didn't want to turn into my mother. Self-imposed a 40-day no drink challenge in 2014...

That's it. I was surprised how much digging into the article I had to do until the first mention of trauma... "Other less common etiologies include carbon monoxide poisoning, temporal lobectomy, encephalitis, neoplasm, right temporal lobe atrophy, trauma, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's...

I'm familiar with what you're talking about, but I think those exercises are to help remember people you are meeting. That is not the struggle I'm having. This happens with people I've known for 15 years, people I've grown up with. Sometimes my own brother, a person who looks exactly like me...

Ever heard someone say "I'm bad with names but I never forget a face"? Well I'm bad with both. People I've met multiple times still have to introduce themselves to me. I couldn't pick people I've known for years out of a crowd even if I know they're in there. It's so embarrassing and I'm sure...

I moved back home at the request of my mother after I left my son'S father because of abuse. I shouldn't have though. My mom was a perpetrator too, during my childhood and adolescence. She kicked me out a few weeks later and my 3 year old son and I had to live in a women's shelter. I started the...

Thank you!! That is exactly what I was hoping to find, some suggestions that might be reasonable with policy. Thank you for giving me this tool to reference. I'm going to send your post to myself to address with the campus counselor at our appointment!

Hi guys, I just joined today. Haven't intro'd myself yet because I think even briefly touching on my background and cptsd diagnosis will trigger a dissociative state and I have a lot to do today. Midterms. And dissociation happens to me a lot. It happens with kind of a migraine aura. Everything...
