We’re glad that you’re here. If you’re wondering about the two systems that run this site, this is us!
cursed with a terrible memory
“two-faced”
flakey
a bold faced liar
impulsive
randomly immature
easily distracted
And a whole lot of other things!
Finally being accurately diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder was intensely terrifying and relieving all at the same time. On the one hand, it felt amazing to know that we weren’t making up the voices, that we weren’t “lazy”, that there was a reason for our time gaps, and so much more.
On the other hand, adjusting to being multiple felt like this massive undertaking. We felt depressed that we’d never get to live a “normal life”, scared that we'd always unsafe in our own body, and livid that someone had done this to us.
Together, everyone in both of our systems worked to find ways to not just make D.I.D. bearable, but enjoyable! After a lot of trial and error, frustration and tears, and fights and negotiations, we finally started to find methods that worked for us. Now, both of our headspaces are filled with welcoming, encouraging, all around amazing alters and we all genuinely love being part of a system. We just knew that we needed to share this information with other systems!
If you’ve been diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder and you’re feeling lost, confused, and overwhelmed, we understand! The goal of this site is to help D.I.D. systems to become a team that works great together and thrives in all areas of their lives. This site is here to give you tips, how-to’s, encouragement, and ideas to help you and your alters build your own happy headspace.
