Got out of session recently and sitting in a parking lot as an effort to come back to reality but easier said than done. Tough session. My T just officially I guess dx me with DID with Amnesia Nos? Not really clear since everyone battles in my head. That being said, she's (T) creating waves in there by trying to get "me" or "them" to describe themselves out loud and it's not working well for them. All the physical crap is happening and all I/we can do right now is ride the storm until we have to go back home and hope all is well there. That's it in a nutshell. Already way too much info.
 
"Creating waves" is a bit of an understatement, yeah!?

I remember when I got diagnosed and the parts were being communicated with directly for the first time, most of them gave me (and my T) absolute hell, and several years on, there's at least one that still rails against therapy.

It seems to be a normal enough response that it's actually been written about in some of the DID literature. The theory seems to be that it's an uncomfortable adjustment for a coping mechanism that has, for years/decades, survived by being incognito.

Hang in there. In the long run, I can definitely see that communication between my parts has been vital to getting my DID relatively under my control. But I won't tell lies, there were some very upsetting things that I did while other parts took over while we went through the period of coming out and coming to terms with each other.
