    Encina is back to discuss updates on her life and more on life with dissociative identity disorder (DID). We first sat down with Encina Severa in 2018 to discuss what it’s like to live with dissociative identity disorder (DID). But we didn’t get the full picture. In this series, we flesh out Encina’s full mental illness journey. Welcome to the MedCircle original series, “Encina Severa: Living with DID and Co-Occurring Disorders.”
    Watch our video with Encina on what it's like to live with dissociative identity disorder (DID) HERE: ‱ I Have Dissociative Id...
    In this new series, Kyle & Encina talk about the reaction to the original dissociative identity disorder interview, more about what it's like to live with multiple personalities, and what it's like to live with other mental health disorders:
    - Depression (or major depressive disorder) with mixed features
    - Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD)
    - Complex PTSD (c-PTSD)
    Encina ends the series with insight into how she found the right treatment for each disorder. After watching this full series, you'll walk away with actionable advice on how to find the right mental health treatment.

      @ashantii5584 Pƙed 5 lety +67

      This is a 100% true! I have DID with 21 different alters. It is actually pretty common for some some to be diagnosed with DID. You develop DID at a young age. It comes from extreme recurring trauma. That trauma could be physical trauma, emotional trauma, or extreme neglect. The reason people think it’s rare is because some people don’t even know they have it. Or they don’t get diagnosed until way later or even at all. No it’s not like the movie split or glass. I can’t explain with my limited vocabulary, but there is this CZcams channel that it dedicated to bring light on DID, it is called DissosiaDID. Check you the channel if you are interested in learning more about DID and alters! - Ashantii (alter)

My son had DID and didn’t realize it himself nor did we as his family till the last couple years of his life. Believe me I am very supportive of anyone who had this . I wish people were more aware of what it is . I hope the best for youđŸŒ»

    Kyle's change in demeanor is really clear and although in the last interview with Encina he felt a bit pushy, it seems like he has done more research on the disorder and is actively being a bit more kind and compassionate in the questions he's asking and how he responds to her answers. I really appreciate that.

      Yessss. In the first interview when he finally got to speak to Minnie (I hope that is the correct spelling of her name, I apologize if I'm incorrect!)*, he tried to ask her a question to get info about the other alters which is a BIG no-no. Not only is it a violation of trust on Encina's part & somewhat disrespectful, but he is esentially trying to manipulate a child to benefit his interview. I am glad to see he backed right off of that direction of questioning & has since adopted a better style of journalism from what I can tell.

      The overall vast majority of people with DID have attempted suicide from depression and other issues at least once, usually more. In ritual abuses we're split to have 'Omega' alters that are brainwashed to commit suicide if they don't keep in contact, or do what the cult wants (either out of fear or dedication). I have DID myself with many DID friends, and we all have major depression and anxiety problems. It just comes with the territory.

      My Clan was there about a year ago, and in therapy doing EMDR luciferian memories started flashing. I ended up having to leave that therapist bc she thought it was all false memories. Just horribly evil things, and we're alone working with our own system now. You can be so close to the grounding and it feels like you trip on a boulder.. right back to chaos. However, at least I know why Kitty kept rabbit trailing info, and why everyone was so guarded about their memories. Most recently has been memories of 'training' during the StarGate program. It's been a hard journey the past year.

    what i hope people can also understand is that everyone who has DID do not switch the same, we don't all have drastic switches. some of us switch on the DL because of the environment we have been in, doing it on the DL is a way to keep us safe. DID does not come with universal "tells" it is as individualistic as the person who has it.

      It's weird, because I'm pretty sure DID was known about and acknowledged since before even schizophrenia, but then they just... forgot? I don't even know, but it's weird they're saying it's weird and fake NOW after so long. We're a system ourselves, so it's good that it's finally being out in the open again.

It takes a lot of courage to show this kind of vulnerability in front of a camera; congratulate yourself on that and remember to take every day one step at a time. Slow and steady.

      You can have DID with or without ritual abuse involved. My abuse was calculated and set up by a luciferian occult, along with project star gate. Just a basic of types of alters is here.. along with how the CIA and other groups can purposefully create a large DID system. This may be too much for most people at once, but it's a jist of how a system that was ritually abused operates. Though I don't think Encina was a ritual abused system.

That also probably means there are lots of people out there , they may not fit the textbook criteria , but still indeed exhibit legit symptoms, regardless of age , gender, or how long the switch actually occurs. If the Dr can be wrong about her at 1st, ....then obviously she can be wrong too (with all do respect) when explaining it like she did in the 1st video, not this 1. Anyone who knows about phycology or phycietry knows that disorders can be interpreted loosely, and things don't have to be by the book, or ... like she said, disorders can look and sound like another , when there not that at all ...., most disorders bleed into the others a lil to some extent.

    She is one of the most courageous people. To go get help, admit you went, say you still need help, thanks the interviewer for offering any additional help. Likely accept any positive help that comes her way, is like this: many many souls are healing. Many RIGHT NOW. Her connection to these other beings are like we “want” to “show” our “godlike selves”
 like a single body is capable of working the “karma” of 11, or 13 (Im sorry, I forget how many). It’s the honoring, of each, that this beautiful vessel has given each, to clear the “karma,” “transmute” the “shadows” and “alchemize” them into light. It’s amazing, it’s inspiring, it’s courageous, and what a experience to recieve, not totally perhaps understanding why, but allowing it. I wonder if from “meeting” Encina, if those that have more “troubled” personalities, if it’s from years (lifetimes, maybe) of suppression, and never coming forth and allowing the “alters” to also AUTHENTICALLY “live”. I apologize for the parentheses, but I’m not a dr. I don’t know Encina, or the others, I’m only taking my thoughts of the complicity of this powerfully transformative video, and the DID diagnosis. It’s truly profound to see she is literally transmuting, it seems to me, multiple karmic stories, simultaneously, though at their own time. all while remaining conscious of only expressing as the self she knew first, or, Encinas current experiences. It’s an honor to us all to know even the glimpses she’ll share. This, to see just how powerfully capable, and just how mystifying, the mind is, and our experience through it.
    Encina, continue being good to yourself(s) and honor each of your divine personas. I hope that the amount of healing you’re taking on in this lifetime, is able to bring so many more healing moments for self (s) and others, as we progress further into conscious-understanding of our mind body and spirits. Again, I’m honored, humbled and grateful. Blessed be.

Im with the same/similar condition; DID/OSDD and have a child part like Minnie who is so pure and carefree. I guess that made me cry. I also sympathise wat Encina is going through at the moment as I (host) have been struggling a lot lately. This, again, was a good interview. Many people think having DID is fun; get to be different people, but they often ignore the suffering of CPTSD which is extremely painful thing to live with. Thank you for this video.

      "part"? you mean you don't see your childlike part as a real literal kid? if you still don't, you need to let that kid have a real life time to time. I hope your inner world has a nice castle for them to live in

    DID is not rare. It's something like 4% of the psychiatric population. Think about something like borderline personality which is 10% of the psychiatric population. It goes undiagnosed A LOT because it involves so much amnesia especially in the beginning when the parts are not speaking to each other.

      Yeah. You could see her stiffen up when he said it. It's supposedly more common than bulimia

      Bpd effects 1.6 percent of the population. DID effects under 1 percent

      @@tmystery9505 That's the overall population. The original comment said the *psychiatric* population (people who receive psychiatric care or have psychiatric disorders).

    I totally feel for you Encina! I have Bipolar 1 and I struggle every day with my cocktail of medications that I'm on for anxiety and my depressive symptoms. I also struggle with constant suicidal ideations, and I know how hard it can be to get through the simple day to day tasks. Thank you for being so brave and being an advocate for mental health!

    I just seen both interviews for the 1st time tonight & I am now very interested in this challenge. I am ADD, ADHD, Bipolar & was ODD as a teen and there are so many things that I am willing to learn about and take in just so I know what this is and how it may feel. The car metaphor was amazing. As she explained it, I felt it.

    I have literally all the things she named including the traits of bipolar disorder! Anxiety, PMDD, MDD the only thing I do not have is DID.... but knowing that it’s not that rare now makes me kind of question some things!??? When she cried about trying to find a medication, I cried with her! Because I’ve been there for so many years!! My meds are never right! It’s truly sad medications for mental health have just not come far enough!!
