If I met you on the street and told you that without you knowing anything else about me how would you react? I am just curious what the stigma is >

I Should have been more thourough the reason I am asking this is because of the stigma that multiple personalities have had I have had extensive therapy with mine and "we" are co-consious, communicate and cooperate with eachother which makes life workable a year ago I would have not told a soul about this because I was ashamed of it but the truth of it is I am the way I am because of what was done to me as a young child and DID is a remarkable coping mechanism works great when your a kid getting abused not so helpfull as an adult though

I don't think I can speak for other people, but I would probably look at you funny just because you walked up to a total stranger and divulged something that's very personal. Personally, I have a mental health problem but I don't go around telling everyone (yes, I realize the irony of that statement).
I guess if I knew you and you told me, I'd want to know more about it. It wouldn't change the way I would look at you. If anything, it would help me to understand you.
I hope I haven't totally offended you but at least you're able to talk about your disorder. That's a lot better than some people out there! |
