>Now, you are not on any meds, right? Well, like Dr Peter Kramer explained well, there are side effects of meds, and of not taking them. Have you been able to get any talk therapy/Psychotherapy?
How is your support system?How are you living with DID? Does it cause any stress or discomfort? I have a friend who is learning specifically about how to, not "treat"...I think it is only a "disorder" if it causes stress or challenges in your life...but work with people who have DID. There are so many silly, and hurtful, myths about it.
I have, at times, found serotogenic meds, at high doses, helps produce a bit more endogenous serotonin, which activates a bit of cholinergic activity...which, in small doses, can have antidepressant properties.

I was brought up to believe..
Belief that's failed me now
As Life goes from bad to worse
No philosophy consoles me
In a clockwork universe..........
