This was enlightening. When Scarlett said alters aren't hallucinations, so it's not something that can be validated, rather, they are parts of that person. So not validating an alter would be like not validating the person. Good way to put it.
I think it's not real
Can’t you meant to say
@@Walczyk science has already proven that it’s real, so you are incorrect.
@@TheKatarinaGiselle that's not true at all, it is an highly debated topic. why aren't any of the "alters" ever intelligent or interesting? make believe
@Addie L. many have been caught lying, and psychologists still debate if it is real. so i think skepticism is okay here
I don't know how anyone could explain and portray this disorder better than these two have done. This video is very well produced and edited. It allowed me to believe them.
Don't believe them . Not for a minute . The fact that they are so lots of interviews and CZcams makes me very suspicious. Why wouldn't you just keep this to yourself you don't have to show this aspect of your life to everyone .it's like they think they would be nothing without this diagn5
@@vickythefist7062 you saying that it's not medically proved? It is
@@vickythefist7062 So a women's advocate is not to be believed because she "broadcasts" her struggles (as portrayal of what a group she belongs to encounters)??
Apply your argument to other situations to see if it holds up - I find that a very useful method I've been made aware of recently. :)
It is so lovely to hear you both speak. I have worked with teenage girls with similar experiences and the essence of their alters seemed to be to protect themselves at their most vulnerable. DID is not classified as a mental illness. It is described as a highly adaptive skill that occurs in childhood to protect developing personalities from repeated trauma. God bless the brain because we are obviously not protecting our babies well enough. Bless you both and may you experience happiness.
It's a disorder. It's even in the name. This is not to stigmatise or judge people who have it.
@@chelseapoet3664 It is a disorder, but it's not a mental illness in the sense that there's nothing wrong with having it and it's actually a positive thing. It's a strategy to protect a child's consciousness from repeated trauma. Having DID isn't in itself harmful, although people with DID often have mental illnesses as well as a result of their trauma. I suppose it's like autism, autism isn't a bad thing it's just a different nontypical way the brain can operate
@@hi-ve1cw exactly !
@@hi-ve1cw I'd argue that's the case of every 'disorder'. They all grow out of what could be healthy coping mechanisms that go wonky. The fix should be making them functional as possible, so in DID it could be helping communication and reducing anmesia between alters (not getting rid of them all unless they want to fuse).
Same with many other conditions. They all come from normal, potentially healthy systems and functions we all have but sometimes they go awry. (Good example is psychosis, everyone gets hallucinations but most of them aren't pathological, it's only a disorder when it's causing problems. So none-pathological hallcinations can be migraine aura, seeing shadows when falling asleep or hearing someone say your name as you're falling asleep. Stuff like that.)
@@hi-ve1cwok but mental illness isn't inherently a bad thing😭😭
I had a girlfriend with d.i.d she was butch, one of her alters, as she called them, was a feminine lady like me, the first time I saw the femme, who was really comfortable around me, being with her taught me a lot because they're so many rude people out there who do not believe in this mental health disorder, when in fact it does, exist. Everyone needs to just be nice.
so glad comments are back!! wanted to say that my boyfriend and i both have d.i.d, so it's really awesome to see this! thank you for taking the time to interview people like us and being understanding and kind!
❤️❤️❤️
we have a community of people who aren't neorotypical so we can feel comfortable Everytime we come to this channel, it's nice to always come here and see people who faces a different reality like me, I'm autistic(Asperger's) and ADHD.
Impressive and beautiful
Wow I would love to date someone with DID like I feel so alone
@@SieMiezekatze finding friends and relationships with people in other systems is important for systems 💛 believe me, you’re not alone
Speaking as someone who has never lived, or known anyone with D.I.D., I learned something watching this video. Prior, I had a jaded, but ultimately harmless perception that every separate individual in a “person’s” system is spectrum of good or evil. I think this originated from the way media portrays “multiple personality disorder”. I’m very happy to have watched this, because it helped me, and hopefully others, realize that these systems can be full of good hearted people. Wonderful interview.
Uh, that is *not* harmless. It's incredibly harmful. Glad you learned better though.
@@autisticzuko2750 the only reason I said it was harmless is because I’d never think less of a person or outwardly portray that view to another. It’s just not how I am, but yeah I guess it is kinda messed up in hindsight to this comment.
@@haydenanderson2121 I've literally had an HR manager follow me into the restroom at work, because she thought I was a murderer. After disclosing my diagnosis for ADA accommodations, she replied with "OH! Like the movie Split!" I work in a professional setting (which shouldn't matter), and she was privy to my clean criminal record (required for hire). Movies like that do real damage. 4yrs later with no work issues and great performance, I still get treated like a science specimen - like I can turn at any moment and just become dangerous. It's extremely uncomfortable, and I'm never considered for advancement, or anything beyond my job duties. I've been a certified professional in my field since 2007. Acclaimed by folks who don't know my DID status, disregarded as dangerous or mentally unstable by those who do (related only to the diagnosis, not by behavior). Thank you (sincerely) for taking the time to better understand. It matters 🖤🖤
You are an excellent interviewer. You are so sensitive, respectful and aware of those questions that may be uncomfortable.
This video is a very good representation of DID and can help a lot to reduce misunderstanding and stigma around DID... thanks the lovely couple and the interviewer for making such a valuable video❤👍🙏
We believe you! And we’re very appreciative of learning more about you and your systems :)) 💕
Billy approves :)
We don't.
You were so brave during this interview. We see you, we hear you, we accept you. 🙏
Thank you for letting us get to know about you all. This definitely helped me to understand D.I.D better.
This was really helpful and insightful. Thanks so much. Patiently and clearly explained by both of them. They would be interesting to revisit after the 3 years of therapy since this video. Wishing many years of happiness to both of them.
They have their own CZcams channel 🙂
very late to the party with when this video came out, but i’m very happy to see something like it exist. i have OSDD-1b and my boyfriend has DID, in a few ways we are similar to this couple so it makes me feel comforted that me and my boyfriend aren’t alone and there are many other plural couples out there!
Plural couple is such a lovely term to use! I didn’t really know much about DID before watching this, and to be honest I still struggle to wrap my mind around some things. When I read ”plural couple” something just immediately clicked for me, so thank you for that! I hope I can learn more about this and understand other people even better in the future. The human brain is truly something!
That is so great that you took your time to educate people, thank you!
Thank you for sharing. Everything made so much more sense when we learned about did. It feels good to know we are not alone.
Agreed! It all made so much sense once we got diagnosed and once we all became aware of the diagnosis... It took me personally 20 years to become aware of the others whereas they had all known about one another for a long time. All the other diagnoses that I got during the time that I was fronting and seeking mental health care just couldn't seem to explain everything I experienced. I just felt like mental healthcare was not helping me. Once I personally realized all my headmates were in here it finally made sense what I was experiencing, and I am finally getting treatment to help deal with it all and to work together. It is good to see the disorder explained and talked about more.
@@suzannep thank you for sharing your experience.
Utterly fascinating! Thank you SO much for opening up to us in the CZcams world.
thankyou so much for taking so much effort to communicate all this, to articulate sure is difficult in a 'judgey' world
Wow, I didn't understand D.I.D. untill now. It's pretty amazing to learn about. Thank you so much for sharing your world with us.
❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
I believe u. I’m so happy u 2 found each other. I wish u all the happiness in the world.
Me too 🙏❤️
Bless you all. The brain is an amazing unit.
You all did a great job of explaining DID to the masses. Really great job!
I have a childhood friend with DID. I reconnected with her several years back, but lost contact. I found out from her brother that she was in an institution. I have struggled with whether or not to try and contact her. I’m concerned that because we were friends when she was experiencing the trauma that caused her to have alters, that it might upset her system. Sigh. It is so sad to me that she hasn’t experienced what you guys have long term. Her second husband seemed to be such a rock for her, but they divorced and then she ended up in the institution. That made me so sad for her. I want her to be happy. I’m still so pissed that she had to go through the stuff she went through as a child and ended up not being able to manage as these folks have. I truly hope that she is able to find balance with her alters and live life in a better place. She still has many more years on this earth and I know that it is possible!
Hi,
You are both amazing and should be so proud of yourselves, i am in awe of the strengths that you and your DID alters have created, everyone that lives in your body deserves to be happy, and i wish that for you all too. ❤❤❤ xx
This was very illuminating. Max and Scarlet articulated their experience so well. I hope they are doing well in 2024 ❤
This was one of my favorite interviews. Very intriguing and insightful. Two beautiful souls. May God bless you both.
I got a friend that can relate to this and it's good to know people with disorders can still inspire and bring joy to others!💯💙
They are so interesting and beautiful. Humans are such amazing creatures. The mind is incredible--how it can protect itself in the face of trauma.
I wouldn't have been allowed to believe you three years ago but I believe you now. You did an amazing job at explaining. Thankyou for your contribution
To both of the guests. I believe you, and wishing y'all wellness n safety during all this added pandemic stress.
This is so interesting. I’m so glad I learned more about this disorder. I believe those with D.I.D. You are valid.
This is heartbreaking, I can't imagine not having personal privacy like this. I really hope they have good life's.
I believe you! I believe you! I believe you!.... 💯🌈
This was one of my favorite interviews to date! Everyone, particularly Scarlet, was so well spoken and they did an amazing job of sharing their perspective
I have a close friend with DID and there's actually one alter who both physically and verbally hurts everyone around them... I've been told she's there to protect the system from people getting too close but she's so agressive and toxic that it's actually hard for others to be there for the system... I didn't know that having an alter like this is actually uncommon
Try researching persecutor alters. DissociaDID's youtubr channel is a great place to start. :)
Research "persecutor alteres". Persecutors are usally based off of the abuser. Persecutor alters tend to be harmful to the host, other alters in the headspace and towards other people as well. I have a persecutor alter as well and he likes to co-host a lot of the time. My persecutor alter is the semi-exact same as what your friend is dealing with. Dealing with persecutor alters can be stressful since they can force other alters to front, and be verbally abusive towards your loved ones and friends. Persecutor alters forcing the other alters to front can be really harmful to you and the alters. I've dealt with it before a lot of tne times. Apologising A LOT for harm you didnt do can be tiring, well, for me. He usally fronts when i am over stressed and when a argument is happening, trying to push the person away from me, so they can leave me alone. He tries his best to push people out of my life so i can live with out stress of overthinking that the person is going to leave me. Its hard dealing with him, and just persecutors in general. I wish your friend the best.
That is very common and I had the same make a contract and everyone must sign on it ' the contract must imply that you can't physically or mentally hurt one another" ,also putting them in prison for their crimes is another good idea, this should be easy to achieve if they have a safe place, it worked for me is been three years without hurting me :D
The book' coping with trauma related dissociation " also helps us and C-PTSD workbook as well
We had a persecutor alter who usually would take out that pain and aggression on herself. After helping her heal, and many years of patience, she is finally seeing value and hope in this life. She has taken so much pain so the rest of us didn't have to. Many times, these alters/parts need help - a professional who understands the DID brain.
Mental illness and PTSD manifests in so many ways- whether these folk have awareness and conscious control of their alters or not is really irrelevant. What IS relevant is that this is how they interface with the world and one another, and this is how their trauma/repression manifests itself. I wish them well, they seem very bright and articulate, hopefully their journey stays on a healthy path.
Very articulate and awesome people. I would love to learn a year from know how they are doing!
You should know whatever happened to you, is NOT YOUR FAULT. When people get hurt over and over when they are young, it changes the brain. You 2 are strong and loved!!!! You just want to be safe and loved
Thanks, this interview was really helpful, it helped me understand D.I.D
It sure makes a relationship more interesting. Not trying to be funny but in a way it sounds like dating several people at once. That being said, it takes some dedication and mental training/discipline to make it work. All my respect to everyone in this relationship.
This is exactly what it's like. We've been with our wife for 15yrs. We all have different relationships with her. 100% honesty and communication makes it work. She's incredible.
Love you Labyrinth!!!
Thanx for sharing your stories
This is very real, thank you.
Really like the driving analogy.
Scarlet and Max, you are an admirable couple. I was recently diagnosed with DID. My therapist and I cannot find a core personality. I roladex too much. I became aware of it last year, but remember strange events that occurred as a child that make it clear I always had DID.
Hey there, just to clear up something. With OSDD1/DID there is no core personality because long term trauma causes dissociative walls and amnesiac barriers to form between ego states. So you can't find a core because one was never able to form. This is one of the key differences in DID and PTSD. In PTSD/CPTSD there's enough of a gap between the trauma event(s) to allow the ego states to fuse into a single Personality. A traumatized person but still a person with a single, whole personality.
I would love to know the process to get a interview with you.
We have DID we totally understand this . Our system takes a while to trust people. We switch only when we feel safe. We have 14 alters in our system at this point. We decided to do a CZcams channel as well.
Isn't it normal thou? Like my brain is wired to think everyone wants to hurts us, even people that I know for years like 10+ I can't trust them fully
@@SieMiezekatze yes it’s normal feel with DID because your brain is on higher level of alert because of past experiences.
@@andersonsystem2 somehow I still feel bad like I just can't get my brain to think that we are not in the past anymore, deep down I just can't feel safe...... Do you have any advice to feel better? Or are you also struggling with this?
@@SieMiezekatze living in the past is hard because we live there too unfortunately because of the past events that has happened. Our therapist tells us to live in the now. He told us the way to do that is to learn how to be a gatekeeper of our mind. He said meditation can help with this. We do small meditations because we’d can easily disassociate during it .
@@SieMiezekatze I hope this advice helps you friend.
Can one person in the system have a personality or mood disorder and the others not? Like, could one have BPD but not all of them?
Yes! Absolutely
i see what you did right there.... high five
It kind of feels like it sometimes, but I don't know technically speaking. I have some alters who seem to have the symptoms of BPD but others who do not. I also have some who are very socially fearful and would probably be considered to have an anxiety disorder if they were out front more often in our life. Some of us are very paranoid about things while others are not... but I don't really know if that would be considered each of us having different diagnosis. I have also been diagnosed with bipolar, and I know some alters come out front during manic episodes, but we all experience the manic episode, it's just some of us enjoy being manic a lot and I guess they want to be out front during it more than others.
As someone who has this disorder I can answer this for you yes other Alters in the system can have other disorders. I have 23 Alters at the moment and I can say that I have one alter that has OCD extreme OCD. I haven't another one who has crippling anxiety attacks panic attacks PTSD. Each altar is completely different with a completely different personality I also have healthy personality Alters that didn't experience as much trauma. The altars that experience more trauma are more likely to have other disorders the ones that did not experience any trauma you know decently normal people I have a few of them they come out usually when I'm out and about with my friends to kind of help me keep confident and bubbly with them so I don't crumble. They also helped me a lot at work.
Yes, one could have all the emotional and behavioral patterns we classify as BPD or another disorder while others don’t. It’d be likely that that alter would (partly) serve to contain that distress so other parts can function without it.
whqt a lovley guy max is i honestly love both of you such beautiful individuals I love you all guys 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯
How incredibly brave of y'all are for speaking on D.I.D. Y'all are beautiful & Very strong. Be proud of You. ❤️❤️
They are such an adorable couple.
I'll be polite and say I just didn't understand them. I'm thankful for Chris showing compassion and love to everyone he meets. It was interesting to see their point of view regardless of my opinion.
basically when childhood trauma takes place some people get amnesia and dissociations to keep their mind coping with said trauma and avoiding having to cope with it again. eventually the amnesia happens enough that the side of the person that remembers certain things and the other side that remembers other things have completely different life experiences and grow into their own beings with their own mental traits. it all sorta just expands from there if that makes sense.
I’m curious as to how a 6 year old alter would work. Like me as a grown man would it be appropriate for me to have tea time with another 6 year old
These are the diagnosis that is very difficult to pinpoint. Is it delusion, ptsd, attention deficiencies, etc.
This is a much better representation then the other DID video I saw from this channel. Glad he got a better idea about people like us.
And why do you think that? Why do you think this one is better than the other? Is it just because this aligns more with what *you* think it is? Because you’ve seen more of this than the other?
I think DID is so fascinating. I wish more people believed in it rather than making fun of those who have it.
God bless both of them, my name is also max! The slavic spelling, but still.
May God bless and watch over you both
Imaginary friends don't bless shity.

As someone who lives with DID, and has been with their wife for 15yrs, it's nice to see multiplicity reflected like this. Thank you 🖤 🖤
wow. while I empathize with people who live with various degrees of mental illnesses, I have communicated with people in my personal life who have mental disorders that they should also accept that I sometimes need space away because they are difficult to deal with. I don’t feel an ounce of guilt making sure I put myself first
Has anyone ever heard that Final Fantasy 7 house story?
Some of these comments are disappointing, if you don't believe it's real, either try to learn about it or don't bother commenting invalidating and quite mean comments. DID systems have gone through enough. They said it themselves in the video the stigma is one of the hardest things they go through so maybe try avoid adding to it in the comments? You're not all doctors and even if you are your not theirs so be kind or say nothing.
God ✨💛✨bless you
I believe you! 🖤
Fluid thinking. I'm just me
Question : if our brain creates this illness how can it not heal itself & get rid of the alters and be their self as one? Or is it irreversible? Like if we’re creating it, can’t we do the same control to make it go away?! The brain is so strong to see another person inside of us, then how how they not use that power to make them go away or “shut down.”
Also next question: do ppl want to keep their several identities or do they want to be one? And If not, wouldn’t it be just like any other mental illness that ppl are ignoring to get help ? Like having therapy etc etc to help cognitively being aware & be one! Undo the trauma. Like getting trauma-therapy.
Why are there so many ppl with DID and not getting it to go away ?
These are serious questions -- no jackass responses
DID develops when you are very young and that is how your brain develops. Like if you look at a scan of a “normal” brain and a DID brain, you would see differences in certain parts. You can’t just make those parts better or different magically. Healing from DID means healing from years and years of trauma, often abuse. That is not an easy thing to do. And even when you are healing from that trauma, your brain has used dissociation to the point of having more than one identity, along with having amnesia, and you have lived most your life that way. It’s very hard to change that because it doesn’t happen on purpose. People can eventually become “one identity” instead of several but it’s not only difficult, it takes a long time and it’s not a guarantee because if you experience trauma again you could very easily split a new alter since that’s been your brains coping mechanism for so long. Hope this was a helpful explanation
Relatable
What type of medical treatment did they get? Who diagnosed them? Why isn't that ever made clear in some stories. Self diagnoses isn't real and shouldn't be encouraged
They diagnosed themselves by watching tiktok.
Do not make fun of disabilities of other people. They know what they are going through. A doctor would not tell them what they have or not. Doctors are here to help us through medication or other possible ways. If they cannot detect or identified something they will declare it's nothing in there. This is what they do.
@@pathumdilhara7831 I was diagnosed with C-PTSD and a dissociative disorder, by multiple psychiatrists and therapists.
I also have friends who "self-dx" because they don't like the diagnosis they receive from multiple specialists/testing being called BPD when they want to "will" themselves to have DID, and those friends are morons.
Dissociating as it stands isn't a fun way to live regardless of how quirky or "cool" it may look to someone else.

The brain is such a fascinating & complicated thing. I don’t understand why there are so many stigmas. Some of the most intelligent ppl in the world have a brain that operates differently. I mean what is really considered normal anyway🤣🤣
Let me guess, they are self diagnosed
everyone on here provides medical proof to Chris. he's said that before
@@desdemona950 Not these two.
@@bravebeard6225 you're just assuming that because how they look?
I have DID and i have 11 alters, i really liked this video, i have a friend who has nesrly 30 alters and the body is only 15
Is there a difference between D.I.D. and Multiple Personality Disorder?? I'm trying to learn lol
@serendipity I didn't know that, thank you!!
He asked how many alters she had and she said 30. Is that for both. Because he just asked her .
IS THAT JENNY NOVA
Do the alters know what the others do? 🤔
yes, they can see everything in the real world and can interact in the head
@@desdemona950 wow! Thanks for the info.
i usually don't comment much, but i thought I'd let you know the previous reply someone left you is wrong. One alter can take the car and go somewhere, and another alter will tale control of the body and not know where they are or why they are there. This is one of the most debilitating symptom of DID, it leads to confusion and fear
I thought he was going to sit on her lap. Dang lol.. by the way, we believe you. No I’m not DID, I mean my wife and I. :)
Left untreated, DID can last a lifetime. While treatment for DID may take several years, it is effective. Persons with DID may find that they are better able to handle the symptoms in middle adulthood. Stress, substance abuse, and sometimes anger can cause a relapse of symptoms at any time. As a clinical psychologist, I'm interested in finding out what treatment you're both in..There are several different types of dissociative disorder.
The 3 main types are:
depersonalisation-derealisation disorder
dissociative amnesia
dissociative identity disorder .... I haven't heard which one you both have.. id appreciate any information thank you.. We are trying to learn more constantly as there are so many misconceptions surrounding DID,so we need to find out more so we can continue research.. Thank you both.... This reminds me of stigma surrounding schizophrenia too.. do many people who aren't educated seem to think people with schizophrenia are dangerous.. Absolutely not true in regards to other people.. maybe towards themselves.. Schizophrenia is the biggest under researched, under funded of ALL disorders.. I absolutely love this channel..I learn every day and the more we know, the more people can be helped.
D.I.D. is always life long. Our brains literally get wired that way.

Да ладно!
DID is so extremely rare, the likelihood that two true DID would find eachother is like a needle in a haystack.
Completely disagree. Not often diagnosed, few can treat it well, and those who live with it hide it--especially because they are often falsely accused of malingering.
It’s diagnosed rarely but it’s everywhere. Most people spend most of their time hiding this.
Sorry but that’s garbage. Psychiatric medicine has much to answer for.
I highly disagree with this you can easily look up another person with this disorder on Facebook and hook up with them like tomorrow I'm in that group on Facebook because I have dissociative identity disorder so now there's three people and you can look down the list to see how many other people have it. It may be rare but we will find each other look at how many other Chris videos he's done with people with rare conditions and then they meet other people with the same conditions through social media so they can meet up and have someone who understands them. I've never met another person with dissociative identity disorder in person but definitely have talked to many online social media watching videos on CZcams like this.
Less rare than you think! It’s about the same percentage of people with ginger hair, and think about how many gingers you know! :)
As a fellow system, I wish there is some research into the prevalence of dissociative disorders in the gender nonconforming population. Knowing how the different parts of my system feel being in the body we have has helped understand and accept others when they say, I don't feel I am my assigned gender. And with just the group of trans and non binary people I know personally, there are common experiences that make me wonder what data will show in the future.
I hope legends in Portuguese pleaseeee
DID makes wonder if each personality has a soul or if it’s just the main one?
You cant mix science with beliefs/religion
@@nyChannel09 now a days feelings over facts
Just one. As she said. They are like a pizza, different slices but after all all they are just one single Human Being.
@@nyChannel09 ?
In our system, we believe that we have a “complex soul”: one soul with many branches on it, like a tree.
so sad that these mental problems are accepted and not helped
Out of all the interviews I’ve watched on this channel, this is the only one that I call nonsense. I’m sorry if I offend anyone but from what I understand people with multiple personalities don’t recognize and “interact” with the other personalities, when they’re the other identity, that’s who they are and they aren’t aware their identities are changing, but with this, they’re fully aware of the other “characters” and they all know so much about the others thus showing that although they’re this “different person” the consciousness is the same so they’re really just the same person clearly pretending to be another… this is just attention seeking in my opinion and the people are enablers that go along with it….again sorry if I’ve offended anyone, just stating my personal view on this
you watched moon night
Then you have a very incorrect understanding of D.I.D.

Moonlight isn't exactly like DID, but it sort of imitates it.
@@xmr.ai-emixc2918 I was joking
It takes a LOT of work to get to this point. This is where a lot of folks living with DID aim to get to. Functional multiplicity is a way of healing with DID, without the need to attempt to fuse/combine your selves. It takes YEARS of figuring out how to communicate. I promise you, those living with DID are aware something is going on - it just takes a very long time to eliminate every other possibility (physical and mental tests/attempts/medical providers). Example: I have found myself 3hrs away from my house at about 1am on a work night just driving alone in a town I don't know anyone in. I'm usually in bed by 9pm. Did that alter know it was because another part drove them there? No - but they definitely knew something was happening when they had no idea what they were doing or why they were there. Yesterday, I found myself in the shower 3 times. Why? No clue. It took me almost 30yrs to figure out what exactly it was, and I'm going on another 7 still working on learning to communicate with my parts. Are there fakers out there? Of course- just like everything else. But, this diagnosis is 100% real, and has a HUGE impact on every single part of your life for those who live with it.
oh yikes...
Seems dark
“I have purple hair and golden eyes” smh tumblr and it’s consequences
If you know your crazy are u really crazy??
Honestly i just can not believe this disorder i have studied counselling but still… this was the only mental disorder that i couldn’t believe
I mean in a college and in a university i mean these are can be both
College for a diploma
: graduated
University for a graduate diploma?
: ungraduated
Not continuous different course first uni to college
Maybe do some independent research since clearly your university failed you
Max, have you heard of Billy Milligan? :)
Uggh
I don’t believe this is real
This isn't real. This is just wanting to have an outlet to live as a different person. That's fine. But it's not real in the sense that it's truly multiple alter identities. Have you noticed there's always a protector? It's all about being able to cope.
Thats... the mental disorder. It's a coping mechanism as a response to trauma. Did you watch the video?
Um yeah there’s always a protector because that’s the point of the disorder. Protecting you from trauma. Amazing deduction there.
