What can I say?

I've never said I have DID. That I'm on the continuum, sure, as many people are who've had troubled pasts in one form or another. I freely admit that I am diagnosed with depression, and other complexities as a result of my past.

I'm simply trying to understand all aspects, and relate them in a way that is compassionate to myself and others.

I just, well, what can I say?
I am listening, but I don't have to agree with everything.

I don't have a lot of ego strength. Meditation practices brought on psychosis. I am stronger now than I was several years ago. Because of therapy. Yes, I am open and honest with all my treatment team. But I never used to be this vocal, I was virtually mute until my late teens. I am more vocal online than I am in person, and find being in public torturous.

Life isn't about extremes or comparison.

And bear in mind that, although not all may believe I have split off selves, I do have inner conflicts, and my thinking in this thread doesn't all necessarily come from my adult compassionate self, who does have empathy. Even if part of me does not.

It's natural to make generalisations as one tries to understand, that's all. It's not an attack on anyone. I mean no harm. I do have a heart, although some may not think so.
