I have experienced things sort of similar to you, except the "conversations" that I heard didn't seem to make any sense. It was more like gibberish. Or... actually more like snippets of actual conversations that maybe would have made sense in a larger context of a conversation, but since they were just snippets they didn't make any sense to me. This has happened when I am in between the fully "awake" state and actually sleep. Like, a middle state somewhere in between. I'm not sure at all what they were, because it sure wasn't me "thinking" these thoughts, it was more like I was listening to other people talking. But then again, it didn't seem to make any sort of sense. I still have yet to know or figure out what it was! (alters, not alters, etc etc.)


Me too! I don't hear my alters at all in everyday settings and this is the only time I've "heard voices" (otherwise I can just "feel" their thoughts; thought insertion). I still don't know what it is but I've checked with some SPD's and it seems it might be related to my DID (or at least dissociation in general) but I can't tell for sure. I've been so embarrassed about this - feeling like I'm plain crazy - so it's so good to read this and know someone else has experienced the same!

HAH. Oh. :oops: Didn't realise how old this post was.... it was at the top of the list so I figured it was new... sorry about that divided!!!

I can't call my T in crisis either. Right now I have massive urges to cut but I am keeping myself amused on this forum and other places online cause until my partner gets home I need to keep busy busy busy or I will fall. I wish I could call my T at times like this, but at least this isn't fostering dependency but making me look to my other resources in this world.

Being in recovery from DID is very much like The Very Hungry Caterpillar (a picture book by Eric Carle, in print since 1969). After a period of mindless hunger and suffering, there comes self control then metamorphosis, and at last there emerges a fresh and very beautiful butterfly.


Loved this quote! How true!
