@ManyMults: No, we don't consider 6 yrs to be short term. Perhaps a year or two could be, but not over half a decade. Blending can be confusing, but we dissociate less and remember more in the moment. The problem we run into, however, is that when some selves retreat or later when we are not blended, the memories were not stored properly, so we experience what appears to be retrograde amnesia. At least that's the cause we found for it within our own systems.
@ArbreMondy: Hey Daniel, couldn't agree more. The amnesia is a big issue in life for us. I can imagine if a person is not bothered by it or it doesn't disrupt their life and cause dysfunction, then it likely isn't a concern. Not sure how DID looks in a system with 0% dysfunction. That almost sounds mythical lol.
