Integration

( This post probably isn't going to be received well, but it has to be made. )

As this decision I am making is rather in conflict with the idealism of the vast majority of people here, I feel it to be inappropriate for me to be a maintainer of this community, so I'm removing myself. The community does a good job of moderating itself and has in the time I've been helping to maintain it almost never needed any intervention from me.

Introduction And A Question...

[matrexsvigil.livejournal.com]

Hello everyone, my name is Pam, and I'm pretty sure I'm a multiple. I don't doubt the exsistance of the Others in my mind, but I do doubt the label. A quite large intro (skip to the end for the question):

My question is, how should I approach my fiance about this? He likes to joke about my Others, and I'm sure that's his way to keep what happened from being too weird in his mind. He's a good person, and we're doing alright together now. I want to be truely open with him, but I'm afraid of making him uncomfortable. Any suggestions or hints?

Counseling

[redrainstorm.livejournal.com]

We're going to be filling out paperwork to get in to see a counselor. I have a lot of issues going on besides the multiplicity that just simply need to be addressed. I also have others that wish to be heard about their problems as well as we progress in counseling. But, one of the reasons I've put off counseling is my fear that once I do open up about being multiple - they'll write me off as crazy or a liar. I know that I won't say anything until I feel that I'm comfortable enough to share it with my counselor. My fear is - when the time comes - how to bring it up with them. Does anyone have any advice to share?

hello, i'm new :)

I joined this community because my fiance has MPD... I've been trying to learn more about it (I just have manic depression), and while there's some good reading material out there about it, I just can't understand it.
Basically what he's told me, and what his friends have told me, is that he has borderline MPD... he says it only 'comes out' when he's VERY angry about something and that when it does, he blacks out and can't remember anything. While I do not make him angry now and have never seen this come out in him, I know it will eventually happen. I'm not sure if there's any way for me to be ready for it, but I'm just so confused. I've read some of the past entries in this community and I just want some kind of introduction into the world of multiplicity... it has always fascinated me.

Also, I thought I should say that some of this seems a bit peculiar to me.. I mean, doesn't everyone have different characters that come out in certain situations? I know I do....
