Hi! I'm doing some research on multiple personalities. It's not for school. Researching is just what I do. I've been looking into both the mainstream beliefs about multiplicity and DID, as well as alternative theories. I have a zillion questions. Can anyone help me?

My best friend cuts herself. I'm the only one she really talks to. She's always said she doesn't really truly want to cut and knows she shouldn't. But she can't seem to stop. She says its the only thing that relaxes her and nothing makes her happy. Last night she told me that she's been using a razor to cut her wrists instead of a knife. She told me how she wanted to see how ...

I often have problem with connecting to people. Initially we hang out and then they stop talking to me and avoid me. I also speak with Polish foreign accent so may this is cause, something cultural especially in Midwest, but I remember having problem connecting with people in Poland too when I was kid and the only people I was friends with were social outcast too. I think my sexuality is also cause of problem ...

I am a young sociopath, I cannot feel remorse, and I have a hard time relating to human emotions the way normal people do. I can easily emulate human interactions for manipulative / political purposes, but put me in a room to strike up a conversation with a person who I am not wanting to get anything from and I'm useless. This makes my social life awkward and boring, it builds a reputation of me ...

Another question (I'm full of 'em). What are the signs of a new alter, or one I have never met? How will I know that a new alter has emerged? Will he or she just..not know who I am? Or sort of know who I am because they've been lurking, but have been too afraid to come out and meet me? (I'm a support person, by the way).

What can anyone tell me about teenage protectors? Over a year ago, my boyfriend had a change of host (I believe) into what I feel was a teenaged Protector. There were a lot of signs pointing to him being a teen. He was not happy being "stuck" in a relationship. He even ended up leaving; but after a short period of time, the host switched back and came home, remorseful. The process of host switching ...

I dont mean that special interests, skills with computers and other skills or traits like intense focus and knowledge and understanding on my topics is bad.


How do you tackle this disorder? Do you accept it?
Mother nature can be extremely cruel.........
Yeah, it should receive a trophy in complete gold and a diamond on the top for its compassion and benevolence........
:x


Its also completely ironic ...

Right now, I'm writing this in my room after having yelled at my father in front of guests. I felt like he humiliated me, even though it was me being childish, and I don't want to have to go out there again. Unfortunately, I was about to have a shower, so if I want to have a shower I will have to go out there again.

I get so angry at the thought of people ...

So I always considered myself a misanthrope. But after actually looking into it, I guess the correct term is schizoid. In my case covert.

Did other people here consider themselves misanthropes? I'm not too sure which term would have less negative connotations.

So, the Haldol has been wonderful to control my rage fits, but I find the next two days after taking it (if I don't need to take it again.. then it's extra hellish) I am incredibly agitated and it's a chore just to stay entertained enough to not scream because I'm so uncomfortable.

Does anyone have suggestions for another medication that's similar to it? I'm new to the land of high potency antipsychotics. I've already ...
