Re: Must be said

Precisely. Like many multiples who did actually split due to trauma, but then organised an operating system and live multiple without undue difficulty, they find indiscriminate use of the word disorder as applied to all multiples to be irritating, since it doesn't describe their situation.

Once again, being multiple in and of itself is not the disorder. The disorder involves things such as lack of communication and a way to maintain responsibility and activities of daily living... not the bare fact that there are several minds in one body.
