I'm not doubting that you've been through some messed up stuff here, a lot of people have, unfortunately, but this multiple personality thing seems a bit... sudden? And you've signed your posts as 3 different people, which is already one more than any one else i've seen with a multiple personality disorder

Is the DID diagnosis a recent thing?

Well we technically developed the disorder when we were 6 or somewhere around that time. The way it works is that the brain creates dissociative barriers around the different parts, so we weren't fully aware of each other until recently.
DID is a very complicated disorder. Someone with DID can have literally hundreds of parts, or they can have only two or three. The amount of parts usually changes over time as well. Sometimes after processing a trauma, two parts will merge together into one. Or, after experiencing a new trauma, one part will split into two.
I believe we've talked about having different parts on this forum before, but no one really took it seriously.
Currently we have somewhere around 11 known parts.

This page might be helpful to explain some of the things I'm not able to put into words myself.

So which one wrote that post?

Since it was written with input from several of us I didn't bother signing, it would have been too confusing trying to figure out who had added what.
The level of communication between parts we have now isn't typical in DID without therapy, it's just that we've been researching it and learning how to better communicate with each other, which has let us lower some of the dissociative barriers.
Normally, someone with DID would have a therapist help them do this, but since we didn't have one we did it ourselves. I know that sounds hard to believe but it was an extremely difficult painstaking journey over the course of roughly 10 years.

Here you can see one of us confessing to having this disorder (albeit vaguely, but we didn't know how to explain it ourselves at the time) and it being dismissed.

Sounds like hell, tbh, probably very tiring and confusing to put up with in your daily life, but hopefully you can get that all figured out in due time, as well as what goes on in your own household :cookie:
