This is the kind of DID content I’ve been longing to see on RU-vid. Thank you, Multiplicity & Me and Dr. Lloyd! I hope the expert series is widely viewed and leads to a greater realisation amongst the general public that DID is not a fad but a well-established disorder which is *treatable* by mental health professionals. One of the most tragic aspects of the myth of DID being a fad, imo, is its potential of preventing people with DID from getting the care they so desperately need. As someone with a relatively late DID dx (mid-40’s), I can personally attest that the methods used to treat other mental health disorders often don’t work to alleviate DID symptoms and can often make them worse, contributing to one’s sense of hopelessness. Content like this gives me hope! Thanks again, Multiplicity & Me and Dr. Lloyd!!!

@mini-ch2wn 4 года назад

hearing a professional talk about how one personal can internalise the effects of one situation and have it be a "trauma" to them, at a certain time in life, while another person at another time in life may not have even been bothered by the same situation-- that's so validating, helpful and empowering to hear. i don't have DID but i do likely have BPD (or maybe CPTSD) and since those disorders are often caused by trauma, i've lately been having a lot of complicated thoughts and feelings about how i "shouldnt" have developed what i did, because the stressful situations I was in as a kid aren't comparable to what a lot of others have experienced. but seeing it as being less about the "severity" of things that happened, and more about your ability to cope with it at that time is really helpful, ahh!

@dancergirl5 4 года назад

Well said! Thanks! My best friend has BPD among other disorders from childhood experiences and her two siblings (who lived through same experiences at an older age) mostly have denial and consistently shame my friend(their sister) for having any mental health issues. They insist that she is being dramatic or making excuses for bad choices in life. Its heartbreaking watching her try to get them to believe her or her doctor

@lccxxx 4 года назад

Don’t worry about a diagnosis, if you had trauma then your only reason for being in therapy is to work through that trauma. Forget about labels. Terms are only helpful if you are actively seeking help to cope with any given mental disorder. So just go to therapy or don’t , don’t try and diagnose yourself there is really no help in that.❤️ I believe everyone has some kind of trauma that they could benefit going to therapy from.

@debc1981 4 года назад

This quote from you, "about how i "shouldnt" have developed what i did, because the stressful situations I was in as a kid aren't comparable to what a lot of others have experienced." One thing I finally learned in my 30's and I'm 44 now... Never ever discount the trauma YOU went through just because someone else had it worse... You can not compare yourself to others. You are you...

@DaycieEyre 4 года назад

Our mother doesn't understand how our brain works. She went through a similar trauma as we did and when she realized we couldn't remember everything and we started asking questions she stated "Why don't you remember this, you were there. I remember everything that was done to me, why don't you remember what happened to you?" And we have tried many times to tell her "Our brain doesn't work like yours, we aren't the same." And its always been this constant fight between her and us with it all.

@JaggerG 10 месяцев назад

Lately, I’ve been concerned that maybe I’m misdiagnosing myself and advancing my multiplicity in a harmful direction by accepting it and trying to communicate to alters and make compromises. I really appreciate the reassurance that I’ve been doing right by respecting them and reaching out. I don’t think I have DID necessarily, but I’m at least gonna remain open to the possibility, if a therapist ever suggests I do. One of the biggest myths that’s bothered me is that people seem to think (or actively claim) that diagnosing a disorder is giving someone the disorder, completely invalidating their experience of having suffered from it and seeking professional help as the result. Too many people just invent a narrative in their head and completely ignore the relevant facts in favor of some concept they heard about once from a self help seminar. Thank y’all for establishing the truth, clearly and professionally.

I loved this video, I am someone who is waiting to find and afford a therapist to help me cope with my dissociation and derealization. This helps me remember that I can still help myself and my alters, with help from people in my life. I often struggle remembering/communication between alters. Thankfully I have a loving and understanding boyfriend who can update me on what happens when an alter is present. +This is something I've been gradually doing research over several years after I began experiencing amnesia. The changes in senses, memories, likes and dislikes have become more noticeable to help me distinguish differences when cofronting or a switch is about to happen. Thank you for putting so much effort and sending love to the world.

@nlslanker 4 года назад

I felt the same way and sent the video to my therapist as well. I would also suggest you send your therapist the link to Dr. Lloyd’s new RU-vid channel. Having a DID expert start a channel to help explain and give credence to the disorder has been something I’ve been longing to see for the past few years. RU-vidrs with DID have done an amazing public service, but I’ve long wished for some DID experts to come forward to back them up with their clinical experiences and knowledge of the relevant research.

My response to the fad question is, I was dissociating in the 1980s and social media didnt exist. I've always had a partial connection with part of me, called Jack. I call him my Helper, my brother. I'm aware, partially so. And I feel him take over. He is strong and no emotions. He can stand toe to toe with anyone (my dad was a psychopath and so i needed that I suppose). I still do. If Jack doesn't front in a year, I honestly become really sad because I cannot handle life and I NEED him and he hasn't been there. It has been a good year and that's been rough on me

The role of people in one's life and how they can contribute to one's ability to cope and, conversely of course' potentially worsen how one is coping is very important.

I struggle with the hiding from shame at times. I had a crisis last year that brought my house of cards down...all the corridors and rooms were gone. The voices got so loud in my head that I was talking out loud in my house, in my car. I felt crazy. In 2016/17 I had a similar episode. I got my diagnosis in May by my Psychiatrist. This has been the most mental pain I have felt in my life. Looking through my poetry and writings over the years; seeing the things parts of me knew about the trauma and even revealing the DID itself, has been scary, healing but makes me terribly sad at times. I am slowing this process down as it's been a bit much.

Super helpful video and perspective - thank you so much for the care and commitment you have to de-stigmatizing dissociation, and for the tempered tone and emphasis on education you have. Love you and the boys ❤️ you are incredibly courageous and I’m praying for your continued healing from the trauma so unjustly inflicted on you, whatever that looks like for your system.

I do not have DID, but very interested in learning about all things for sensitivity purposes. This is so very helpful thank you for putting it together. I am in therapy for anxiety and depression, we are also working through suppressed memories and childhood trauma. And although I am in no way comparing situations, because that is not fair, there is some really great coping techniques in here that have been of great help and that I plan to try. Thank you all so much for what you do and share, I am sure you are helping so many people. Definitely have helped me!

Thank you so much for this. I binged on his channel. Newly aware and good info from clinicians is to scarce.

Oh my gosh, when he's comparing the types of traumas with the bombing vs critical, emotionally unavailable parents, I felt validated. I cant express how many times in the past I've compared others "real trauma" to my "minor problems" and just undermine myself. "There's always someone who has it worse", right?

What a lovely video Jess 🙂 You very kindly commented on a comment I had made in a past video (mental health clinician with DID keeping quiet about my diagnosis). Keep up the good work.

@lilme7052 2 года назад

This was sooo helpful! What Mr Lloyd said about the person in leafy Surrey was spot on. I also liked his quote " Don't hide cause hiding is where shame sits". I listen to guided meditations but really struggle to relax, I do like just having a good loud chat into thin air! I guess someone benefits! The last time I dissociated big time was I'd gone to watch Misfits. I'd never seen it before. I got chatting to my new teddies and was still in that head space, episode 2 came on and I was a gonna! It said it was an 18! I can only look into this subject a little bit at a time cause it seems a painful subject for me.

@sandrahertel6282 2 года назад

I can’t imagining so scary as to losing time and coming back into my body and being somewhere I don’t remember going. I would think I was going crazy for sure. Great and informative interview.

@Elya08 9 месяцев назад

It definitely feels crazy. Been there, done that. I’ve had a panic attack a few times when I would realize I didn’t know how I got somewhere else, or what happened between the last thing I remembered happening and “waking up”. I went into a Fugue State in 2020, and when I came to, everything was so screwed up in my life and caused me more trauma.

@lady-adalyn 3 года назад

Thank you so much this video really made me feel a little less scared. But this is still so hard to accept...i feel so alone and I feel like this just will be used against us. I'm seeing so many signs of how long this has been my life but I ignored it and sometimes I still want to. Its too hard. Too strange to people. Embarrassing

@slothquin1748 4 года назад

I don't have DID but because of your videos, I got newfound courage to heal and take care of my mental health. I found out that I have Maladaptive daydreaming which cannot get diagnosed but I'm looking at getting help as well with dealing with trauma. I wish that the boys will be around more as well. I know that it is a bit quiet for the past few days. I wish all the best for you and the boys also with gaz and eevee.

@kaiyodei 4 года назад

as someone with it, do you have their equvilent of an innerworld? I'm skeptical on how some make it sound like, or a few honestly believe it is a real other universe.

Really enjoyed listening to this. I am late diagnosed autistic - that happened age 38. I was diagnosed BPD and Major Depression age 21. Recently diagnosed with CPTSD a few months ago. I am almost 50. I can strongly relate to depersonalization/derealization and shifting personality states and not feeling in control. I also have a long history of eating disorders and beginning to see the connection with changing personality states. Since childhood I have experienced distressing 'out of body' experiences. I suspect I may also have some kind of dissosiation disorder going on. I relate to the intense shame and not wanting to expose what I experiences and the fact that it seems normal to me as it's been going on since childhood. I had a metit mal seizure 30 years ago where I was insensitive to physical pain which isn't usual for me. I love to gain knowledge and self exploration and tend to sit on things mentally a long time before taking action due to shame and fear of not being believed and being able to explain myself. I am beginning to see some differences between autistic shutdown/meltdown and dissosiative symptoms and also connection. Can be a real mind eff at times!

Thanks for this!!! Love what you said about listening and believing. Once had therapist who said “their all you” - so not helpful as I was trying to discern my issue/s. God Bless you all 💞💙👊
