Hello..
I was wondering if you could give me input on if I have DID?
In my early childhood I had SEVERE seperation anxiety from my parents and to this day still do if I am alone in a store. I cut myself to deal with the depression and confusion of life and stress of life. in 2006 or 2007 I was diagnosed as having schizoaffective disorder and anxiety but I always felt like I was someone else. what I mean is that I have 3 different types of me (types is for a word for the lack of a better one at the moment) I have one that lies and steals, one that is a little kid like 5 years old who has to run away from the meanie and hide and then myself like right now. I know when I am like the other sides kind of but not really my mind is just super foggy and I am really confused when I am like any of them..and its like I can hear what I am saying but it doesn't register I don't know quite exactly how to put it but when I was with my dad when I was myself like right now he said that I said I wasn't Nicki earlier and that I was Little Nicki and I said that BIg Nicki wasn't here right now. and when I heard that I freaked out and was not believing him until I did research on DID.
but I guess the feeling that I get when I am the other sides is like a feeling of being un-real, and in a dream..that's the best way I can put it to be completely honest.
So any input would be great and if I confused you I will try and get you un-confused.
I prefer the name Jinx

Welcome, nickip212

Are you in control of what you're doing/saying, when you're one of the others?
Sometimes, with co-consciousness, things can be unclear/foggy/dream-like (if you're inside, while someone else is out).

No I am not I just hear what the other one is saying.. but I can respond to the one that is talking out loud in my head and just feel really out of it and just numb and not real feeling..like I can hear what they are saying and how they are acting but I can't really stop them from doing what they do..I don't know if that makes sense or not but does it sound like I have it?

Yeah, it makes a lot of sense

It does sound like it, but obviously, no one on here can diagnose you... you would have to go to a therapist, for that.
Feel free to look around the board and post

Edit: Oh, and if you have any other questions, ask and I'll try to answer.
