hi i put this thing together because i think it might be helpful given how a lot of systems including myself are more open now but it’s still really misunderstood and there’s a lot of confusion about this stuff so. i hope i cleared it up a bit.
useful resources if you need to know more detail on this stuff than i could fit in:
- DSM-V criteria for Dissociative Identity Disorder
- About DDNOS (OSDD)
- Differences between DDNOS and DID
- Wikipedia on ‘Dissociation’
- Mind.org on Dissociation and Dissociative Disorders
- A FAQ about Multiplicity also explaining how it’s NOT DID
- A more complete list of common alter types and their roles (alternative, also a list)
- Typical Symptoms of DID (.pdf)
If you still want to ask me stuff you can. I’d really appreciate spreading this :D
