I hope everyone reply if claim to have DID

What I learn so for is that It may seem that a child is young and have nothing to do with religion but that is the best time that the enemy could mess with them because they are young and pure and their mind have not really develop yet. They supposedly exposed them to a lot of trauma, pain, and unbearable situations so the child may have barrels and strong holds in their mind so they may have the wrong thought process later in life.

this is what i read. this is what i understood from it. its sounds like you are talking about 'the enemy' as evil right? and evil forces that 'mess with them [children]'. so i just wanted to counter your suggestion that problems related to ab*se/trauma were caused by evil. i thought since you sounded as if you were on a bit of a quest for answers you might appreciate another point of view - that good and evil are illusions created by emotion.

from your first post your wording implied to me that you were someone who didnt know anything about DID or did not have first hand experience of it and I wanted to clarify that is why I wrote about possession etc. sorry if it was an assumption, but maybe if you introduce yourself it wont happen again. my intention was good i can assure you.

im sorry if we had a misunderstanding.

whoa....

I'm almost 49, didn't know I was DID until 3 weeks ago.

I do not believe in God, wasn't raised to believe in God. But I am spiritual. The one that most appeals to me is American Buddhism because it also fits very nicely in the logic of therapy, and logical analysis. It also does not tend to draw narrow minded judgmental people to it.

I do find religions to be more interested in their continued survival then what they are supposed to be for. No thank you Mr. Batman, you may feel free to go your way, just please stay out of mine.

Hey, since four, Hi are you doing, better I hope. I been studying Buddhism also and the idea is not bad. I see that many psychology theories come from it as well. Me personally I think it missing something. Parts of it came from judaism. If you really look at it Buddhism is not a religion but philosophical teaching and practices formed by wise me of their time.----The one thing is holding us down a lot is that we are deceived. Deceived from knowing that this life is not about self-actualization, finding inner peace in this world and in ourselves, having a white picked fence, career, family, vacation time, and then die. We are in war. Believe it or not the whole purpose is to inject us with negative circumstances so it can flow through our minds (what happened to me when I was younger didn’t hurt me but the memories that been flowing in my conscious and unconscious mind the learned helplessness, that is what killing me) and with limited resources, we don’t know how to deal with it and we break down with mental problems. The whole purpose is to keep us from knowing who we are, knowing our purpose in life, our purpose for living, and our destiny, having authority over our lives. If we know these things would anxiety or worrying exists? I’m struggling with a lot of mental problems, I am unable to call on inner power or strength to cure myself. I working with a therapy that is helping me. I’m not saying that everyone should try it. I’m in pain and I found something that lessens my pain and I’m just sharing it. Please don’t hate me for it. It hurt me worse to see others with doubled of my pain.-----If I was on the outside looking in at Christianity, I would think it is full of back stabbers, liars, contradictory, fake mumble jumble. But instead of searching inside that religion or man’s truth, I search for God and his truth. Now I know who I am, the purpose of life, my purpose for living is still blurred to me (I see visions though), but I have an unchangeable destiny. I know that no matter what happens to me, what bridge I have to cross, or choice I have to make, that won’t change my destiny. It is nice to know your end result, less stress. I hope I’m not out of line on this site. If I am, I’m sorry. I mean no harm, If you or anyone wants to email me(hopefully we can support each other) feel free to. No matter what we have or treatment we seek, we are all in this war together, I hope that we all can support each other and the efforts we make to get better and not put each other down. I really believe love and support conquer all.

P.S Don’t worry about me getting in your way Fronima, we both know who will.

I think the problem was that you used the words "claim to have DID". There is a huge controversy in the psych field about this and it causes a lot of non-believers to just come to the conclusion that there is no such thing.

I have DID. My alters have different religions. Some are Hindu, some are Buddhist, some more according to the American Indian. And, yes, some are Christian, like we were raised.

The problem with religion is that it really isn't relevant. What each alter believes, they believe whole-heartedly. The problem with religiion is that we forever heard growing up that "God will get you for that" and "God is a wrathful God". All of us resent this. Even as a Christian, I have a hard time believing that a God could be wrathful if He sent his only son to die for the world. Doesn't that HAVE to be love? (either that or that God hated his son like MOTHER hated her daughter.) In the latter case, that just su*ks.

I have 3 sons and I would never give them up for a world that is like this one. I love them too much. So I have trouble with the "God is a wrathful God" in relation to a Christian way of thinking. I tend to rebel against those types. The American Indian religion is more peaceful. Who is to say what is right?
