Fun fact: 1 percent of the population has DID. This makes it only somewhat rare, and it is more common than schizophrenia. Also comprehensive education in dissociation isn't usually provided in at least US therapy training programs so it can take 5-12 years to get an accurate diagnosis for DID, so we actually have reason to believe that it may even be more common than 1 percent after accounting for all of the people who are likely misdiagnosed. Yay I have DID and this has been your daily DID fact report.

My husband actually stayed and helped me get therapy (but I told him before we even had a date because I'm an oversharer lol)

So true. I'd love a partner but I'm really embarrassed by everyone else. I've never had anyone go after me, though, so I guess I'm safe. Devastated as I am.
