Hi,
>Sorry, the discovery or creation debate is conflict between those who maintain that there is a fact of the matter as to how many there are, what their names are, and that they usually emerge before age 7 and are later discovered - and the view that they are created at the time you start to think / talk about them. (e.g. in therapy).
*very interesting idea. I wondered if I had DID at one time. But I read the description and I have no lost time.
but one night I had taken a drug that gave me a "starry night" vision (like Vincent VanGogh) and time went so slowly that a minute seemed like hours. That same night I had to go to the bathroom and I preceived that 2 of me had to go but 3 of me were fine. So I had to wait till the 3 needed to go as well. I was so amazed by this that I wondered if I was in fact more than one person.
To finish the story we all went to the bathroom.
this gave me so much compassion for people with DID.To this day I am uncertain what happened.
I have had a very traumatic childhood.About news items: well I learn most of my news from this site.
but I'm a avid weather follower.
