The "Dark Thread" *Possible Trigger Warning*

we were lucky to run into someone else with DID and was clued in but thank you they triggered us into awareness you could say and taught us about DID...he is actually 2 years younger than us wierdly enough.
I notice everytime you come on here you take good steps forwards you sometimes inspire and teach us sometimes to keep pushing forward


Thanks for replying to my vent

I do. I hated the meds they had us on for our bipolar mood swings.

We were lucky, too. Lucky to take a psychology class in high school and read about this stuff.
...Thank you, I don't think I do that, but if I seem to be doing it, that's not a bad thing... I'm not used to actually being helpful or anything like that...

everyone on says take a zoloft it'll help u all well f*ck it may work for u and other people but for us we know its its gonna f*ck are head up. we are fine we are survive no one has noticed we haven't self mutilated in f*cking years yes we are getting closer and closer to a T we are working are f*cking arses off for areselves mainly and everyone else.yes we had a hospital visit that was unpreventable to tell you the f*cking truth.

we aren't 5 or 12 or 30(we dont deny parts are) we are 19 turning 20 body wise.. if you dont believe in DID treat us like that

stop pandering us to do what you think is right
yes working is a part of life : we are working we are thinking of quitting due to stress and decaying mental health instead of jumping of the roof
yes we do drink and smoke : are own personal choice not to be judged

I'm sick of people lecturing us all when we've only been doing the right thing.

get of are case for once we've been working hard for areselves with nothing but criticism
get sick and tired off everyone. dont care if you did care you'd give us a break.

vent doneeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

I'm sorry Im sick of it all

Thank you....sarcasm ehhe good Idea

galaxies wrote:I would hazard a guess that a wide percentage of individuals treated with antidepressants are not benefiting from the pharmacological effects of the drugs themselves but rather a placebo effect. Scientific literature indicates that patients treated for depression or anxiety will worsen in response to antidepressants, developing symptoms of greater severity in response to the drug itself. The chemical imbalance hypothesis is mainly myth. It is an outmoded way of thinking. Depletion of serotonin in individuals does not cause depression. There is a continuity error. These drugs are agents that alter brain chemistry. With or without a diagnosis, they would modify the brain. It is comparable to treating social anxiety disorder with gin. People are charmed by the idea of a simple fix to a complex problem, but it is more a fantasy. It is respectable for you to find them an adverse solution. Do not bow to their pressure. -- L.

You don't... mean that, do you? No one's ever said something like that about me...

A voice only she can hear? What?

I'm in a lot of pain right now and rather tired but I still wanted to reply while we're on here.

Yes, I did mean that, every word I said. Fully and wholly. 100%.

By a voice only she can hear, with us, the alter who is in denial and was promoting denial throughout the system could only be heard by Cassandra (unless we were with them/facing them "in person" inside, face to face). So it could be that G hears things from a part/alter that's in denial that you and others don't. It could also be that she gets more/stronger doubt/denial "whispers" than anyone else does, and that only she gets them (not being another alter, but simply being doubt/denial itself, much like how one will have that nagging voice when they have low self esteem that's their mind/them telling them stuff like "You look fat in that" or "You look ugly even with makeup", etc. It's not an alter, it's more like... a conscience, I guess, except it's not the conscience, it's just like one).


(And G, I don't care if you're a writer, or an actor, or have a really good imagination. This is real. If it wasn't, you wouldn't have any symptoms whatsoever, and nothing would ever, ever, be out of your control. Even if you're aware of everything happening, that does not mean you're in control, and you still have symptoms from what I've read. Please don't be like Cassandra (who's also a writer and has good imagination by the way). She keeps thinking that just because she's almost always co-conscious and aware of everything happening (yet not in control), she must be faking or something, and it gets so tiring and hurtful to try and convince her otherwise and watch her run in circles with the same thinking that we keep disproving over and over again. This is all very real, even if it doesn't seem/feel like it to you at times. You're only hurting parts/alters of yourself by ignoring them and denying they exist, and since all alters are parts of the same person, technically that means that you're only hurting and ignoring yourself, which isn't healthy. And just because alters, and you, the host, are all parts that make up the same person, that doesn't mean that this is fake, nor does it mean alters aren't real. You are all puzzle pieces that make up the same picture, but as separate puzzle pieces, you can be very different from each other, and the separate pieces that create a whole/the same picture are very real).
