Or you just think you're feigning it. This thought is a form of denial and self invalidation that is very typical in people with DID. Whatever the case may be, time will tell.

Did the test after a traumatic event.

Calm.

Meeting new alters and change of system.

I scored 81. Yikes. I don't take screenings seriously though. I also score high for autism spectrum and had a ridiculously high IQ and low EQ scores. These are very subjective.

The DES is a far higher quality screening instrument than most. Most are junk, not validated and having poor sensitivity and poor specificity.

My expirience with this has been surprisingly consistant... I've taken it 4 times in the last year and the first time it was 69, second time it was 70, third time it was 68, most recent time 69. I want to keep taking it every few months just out of curiosity.....

I'm the only one who has taken it though, I wonder what the others would score....

Total score of: 68
(30 or Above, Higher Association With DID)

I scored a 38. I might try later and see if it's different.

61 today, after consistently scoring 52 over the past year. Interesting.

Thank you for posting this. This was very interesting and informative.
I scored a 69.
The questions that were on the quiz helped me to realize a lot of things I overlook as things that "just happen" or that I am/have become used to.
