Pfinstegg,
Thank you for your response. I think that the scariest part of the diagnosis isn't that I'm in the 'DID category', but that it underscores the fact that I do indeed have to come to terms with the abuse that I endured, both remembered and as yet unremembered. I have a family, I have a family that I fantasized that I lived in, I have a family from whom I felt love, and I have a family that abused me. I have many more families that all lived under the same roof. I probably have as many, or more selves than I had families. Perhaps part of the healing is integrating in my mind all of these families.
Thank you,
Dee.
