    3% of Australians have DID, many live with but dont know or are not aware. I am currently training proffesionals in DID through my DID workshops hoping to reach as many as possible.

    Hi Mandy,I've been going to the Mental health ,suiside provention department up at the University.They said they did'nt think I had DID.But I am very sick.I'm on medication to help stop all the voices I hear in my head.Since going there,I've got a little better,some days are better then others.I've been told to take it easy and not push myself,other wise I might relapse.We've worked out just enough medication to keep everything at bay.My employer does'nt like me taking to much medication as it makes me too drowsy.I've been to busy to go back to see the health team at the university after xmas.But I'm starting to need to see them again,dealing with all this on my own is'nt going to work.

    thats good to hear. my concern would be are the meds making you sick? is the underneath anxiety making you sick? is the medication causing blocking inside which may prolong the issues (depending on the diagnosis)
    take a look at my website and on the right hand side of the main page is a link to a lady speaks who about her inside voices
    DID is more than just voices inside.

    Please be aware that not all proffessionals (including psychiatrists) have a good knowledge of dissociative identity disorder.
    I was told by a psychiatrist that I did not have D.I.D because ‘I knew about it!!’ His theory was that people with D.I.D dont know they have it. RIDICULOUS. Of cos I knew about it after being made aware of it, …and then he continued to try to promote an alternative to a vitamin I was already taking.
    A member of the Health Share team has asked me to continue as a non-professional member to help with answering questions re: D.I.D
