I know there are many threads around here on this topic, but I wanted to start a thread specifically for those of us that have dissociative identity disorder that have questions for each other about things that happen within our systems, or road blocks we run into with getting proper help/treatment.
So to start things off I have a question/situation. In my system not all of us talk significantly different on the outside (what others witness). I know most of us are very self conscious of the way we sound, so we tend to try and stay consistent but can't always. We're self conscious mainly because family (who don't know about the DID) have mocked some of the others for the way they were talking. So they all work very hard to match one consistent voice. But inside we all have our own separate voices, some are similar with slight differences but everyone is very careful to have the same voice as the main host.
Does anyone else experience this within their system, or are we just an odd group?
