New here and asking for help

[battyvamp.livejournal.com]

Hi,

I just joined the community, have been watching for awhile, but never officially joined. Anyway, I am not plural, but I am married to a man who has 3 inners, excluding himself. He is undiagnosed, and we do not know when this fragmentation started, we are speculating that it started back when he was a child, not through sexual abuse, but through emotional abuse. Anyway, I was wondering if I could get some help, or insight for something I am doing for school.

I am doing a presentation for my Strategies for Success class. In me doing so, I will be getting a 100% on my finals exam, and do not have to take it.

The subject I have decided to do this on, with my teacher's wholehearted approval, is DID/MPD. This subject is near and dear to my heart. I was just speaking to my teacher about how I really really wanted Dr. Skaer for General Psych. class, and it got onto the subject of DID/MPD. She seemed really interested in it and suggested that I do this presentation, and that she usually only asks one or two people to do this, and so I agreed. She also stated that I could probably use the same info in my General Psych. class. Which would be good.

It is to be a 10 to 15 minute presentation. Oh lordy...I do not like getting up and speaking in front of a class....I can feel my nerves starting already.

I was wondering if I couldn't get any of you, to help me by giving me some of your input on this, whether you are a plural, or someone who is involved with one. Any observations, about being a plural, how the inners work together to help the system, and so on and so forth.

Would any of you please help me? I can only do so much searching online to get info, and the only true experience I have is my husband, but he doesn't want me to give any details about him or his situation....if you are willing, what I want is personal experience and observations, no names or people will be mentioned. It will be strictly confidential. So please if you can find it in your heart to help me...please do.

Thank you.
BV

You can IM us on AIM at Virtualwolf or Yahoo! at Lilly_the_wiccan...

AIM is better, but if you don't have it Yahoo is fine.

:-) I hope I can help.

You can interview us, amorpha (at) kitsune (dot) cx. We have a substantially different take on our system than traditional psychological theories of DID/MPD, so you might find our responses interesting if you want to get views from a variety of different kinds of systems.

Email us, eridanus (at) eridanus dot us. Or try catch us online at vampyrfox (AIM) or kilukalasin (YIM).. or vampyrfox@myrealbox.com (MSN). *thinks* Yes. That.

Also can look at our journal, a lot of it is public. We're fairly open about ourselves, but just not at work, and used to consider ourselves pretty functional. Boy was that nice while it lasted. :)
