If they got that far without therapy, they would be the most important case studies since Anna O. DID is notoriously hard to treat, mostly because the alters are usually unaware of the other personalities. There is usually one alter, a "manager" that is aware of most/all of the personalities, but the manager may not be the dominant alter. A key focus of therapy is getting the alters to recognize the other alters, and try to work towards integration. Its fascinating how social networking and the internet allows each personality to connect to others. *psych/social work major geeking out*

I don't want to be all preachy, and I definitely don't speak for every multiple out there, but your views on DID/MPD are pretty narrow and, in my case, very wrong. I'm sure what you've said is true for some, but it screams of someone who's only read textbooks and not any real accounts or interviews with plural people. There is quite a community and lots of resources online that aren't in any textbook you'll read in school. I suggest branching out and seeing how a lot of multiples really have nothing to do with Sybil or other known cases of DID.

[elphie27.livejournal.com]

Thank you. You are correct, my knowledge of DID is limited to rather academic (and shallow) conversations in classrooms and with practitioners who have worked with clients with DID. For the sake of brevity, only "classic" symptoms are focused on, and there usually isn't time for a more in-depth discussion on the subject. I really should not of gone into such detail at all, since DID is not one of my major interests, career-wise. You weren't preachy at all, and I hope my comment did not offend you, or anyone else. I should know better than to put such a blanket statement out on the 'net.

[(Anonymous)]

Your comment didn't offend me, no worries! I'm a pretty easy going person, I just wanted to let you know that the world of academics and classrooms doesn't always show the whole picture.

Part of the problem with DID is that the (mostly)functional people rarely seek out therapy or help or even mention it to their doctors, so it goes undocumented. Whereas the more "classic" cases are the ones that really need help and so are the most visible.

This is true of a lot of disorders, but it's a rather extreme picture with DID specifically.

[elphie27.livejournal.com]

Thanks anyway. Going through class notes today for the final I found that my prof. had stressed this point. Apparently I fail at studying.

[no-one-specific.livejournal.com]

I don't know. Like I said, I felt it would be rude to ask. I know that they have both had therapy, and while I will not deny that they do have several issues, they are both normal and relatively healthy and functional people.

[elphie27.livejournal.com]

I'm sure they are normal, functioning people. My comment came out sounding like presumptions on people I've never met (bad practice in general and rude, period), instead of an unsolicited infodump. I've personally never heard of such progress without the aid of therapy, but as anon showed, my knowledge is limited. Either way, it was presumptive of me to assume anything.

We're multiple. We're willing to answer questions if you have them, and offer resources if you're interested. *shrug*

Thank you for the offer. I think my biggest problem is shutting my fool mouth and thinking before I post. Especially on things I don't know a lot about.
