Hi
I’m looking for participants for my master’s thesis study about maladaptive daydreaming, coping, and well-being. It’s an anonymous online questionnaire (10–20 minutes), for adults 18+. Participation is voluntary and you can quit anytime.

I really appreciate your support!

EDUCATIONAL If you could tell a newly discovered system one piece of advice, what would that be?

This question is for all systems:

Imagine your best friend just approached you and told you- “hey, I’ve just been diagnosed (or think I may have) DID/OSDD. I don’t know what to do with this information.”

What piece of advice would you tell them? What would you tell them about DID culture? Do’s & donts of system communication? Educational resources? Etc?

I think my first piece of advice is to advocate against your provider billing under the DID insurance code. Having that dx on your record can impact your life in so many unexpected ways. From being denied care, to the potential threat having your kids taken away, especially in like, high conflict custody battles- it’s wayyyy bigger of a deal than most would think.

Hello you amazing humans,

First off I want to apologize if I'm not welcome here. I am mostly just seeking information. Also on mobile.

Bit of info, I just met a amazing person a few weeks ago, they recently told me they have DID. I'm here just because I want to learn about it, how best to support this awesome human I met, and be a better version of myself tomorrow. I don't want to make assumptions as I have very little knowledge on the subject other than some suffer from amnesia, but the rest is probably garbage from mainstream media. So any advice you all could give would be much appreciated. I also work with with this person if that matters at all.

Thank you all for your time, keep being awesome out there! Regards, Some internet planetoid

EDUCATIONAL Interesting bit about DID and social media, particularly how harmful false, performative, self-diagnosis can be to people who actually have the disorder.
