Alters and Mental Disorders

Postby LunaSyko » Thu Jun 30, 2011 4:48 am

Yeah.. Having a mental disorder within a mental disorder? Now we're getting into some Inception crap (great movie. I recommend it, if you haven't seen it already) The ending, however, is horrid and will surely make you pull your hair out in frustration.

So, as I normally do, I'm gonna make a list so you can see what all the mental disorders I think each of us have.

Me: DID. Emotionally unstable. Emotionally retarded towards others. Antisocial. Mild eating disorder.
Lilly: None that I know of. She's far too happy for her own good
Kylee: Literally has no emotions.
Kendra: Manipulative. Controlling. OCD. Antisocial. Insomniac.
Max: Emotionally unstable. At age 16 he's a sex addict. Oh, and I turn into destructive Beast when I get mad. Does that count?
Meranda: Antisocial (much more than me and Kendra combined).
Scream: Bi-polar. Mildly Schizophrenic.
Unknown: He's normal. Tch. Other than the fact that he's trying to take over your head and lead us all to our doom.
Copy: *See my list*

So, yeah. Most of our 'disorders' are kind of close to each other, it's still odd. Like, when I'm co with Kendra, the OCD thing really messes with me. I can't help but nit-pick everything around me. It's a wonder how she does it. Lol..

I get used to it. Oh, and I actually keep things clean. Unlike you.

So, anyways. I was wondering if any other people have this sort of thing going on with their alters?

Quote from a thread I posted recently.
I have three distinct "sets" of alters, and these sets each have a predominant trait.
One is largely emotionless, and is scientific and able to travel without difficulty. Another set describes artistic identities, but paranoid, housebound, somewhat delusional and preoccupied with "spirits". The last is the core set of identities, and is consumed by severe, irrational anxiety, utterly unable to function and currently buried deep within the psyche.

Do others here experience this defined segregation of different alters into such groups?
Could it be that the emotionless set are schizoid and the paranoid one schizophrenic?

I want to know if they are real disorders in their own right, or an extension of the symptoms of DID/PTSD.

First off, yes I have seen Inception and yes it did make me want to pull out my hair at the end..what's even better is South Park did a spoof on that movie its hilarious like a taco within a taco in a taco bell that within a dream that's within a dream. Rap your minds around that!
More importantly, my alter Jay has seizures. But no other alter has them. I have had one or two here and there. But most offen its Jay. He also has some phobias that none the rest of us do not have. He is afraid of enclosed spaces he is afraid of the great out doors. (Camping, forests, large parks..) he is affairs of farms and farm animals..he is especially afraid of horses. He has run away from parades I've tried to watch with horses in the parade. He is also a bit ocd when cleaning a kitchen or whatnots.

Lillyane is scared to death of bugs spiders snakes and junk like that. None of the rest are.
Lyle is addicted to pot I think, and he has a huge sex drive for a nearly split gendered alter. It's complicated I guess..

Idk if these are did related or not but they are all unique.
