That’s really interesting! If I recall there isn’t a lot of information on DID and other dissociative disorders in countries outside of Europe and North America, so it’s fascinating to see another, and also lends credence that they are not a Western “creation.” Thank you for posting this!
Dx: DID, CPTSD, depression.
Three known alters remain.
