Also regarding the stigma, I still remember the day my friend told me they had DID. I regret how I reacted because I only knew what media had shown me and I remember being 'scared'. I ended up apologizing years later after watching your videos and learning more about it. Thankfully he said my reaction was much better than most people so he wasn't even upset with me, but it sucked to hear that his experience with people he trusted was often WORSE than that.

@@jordynniccole7434 a lot of systems are made for the environment that they're in, there's plenty of systems where DID is covert and has less amnesia barriers between those in front usually. And considering retaining front information, depends on whether or not the system in question experiences Generalized Amnesia or not. Not to mention that if you're in a high stress environment, specific alters will be fronting during that time. DissociaDID has even said in the past that they didn't used to have severe amnesia until finding out that they did have DID. So it's likely these systems aren't going through trauma processing while in a high stress environment.

Yeah even when they do have accurate facts, the only reason tv shows/movies get deemed "accurate" is because they only touch the surface of the topic. Like Greys anatomy, its factually correct, but thats only because they never go into depth on the illnesses, or the surgeries. It rarely shows them doing anything but asking for a scalpel and suction. If they tried to write it more accurate than that, it wouldn't be as interesting to the public and would be incredibly difficult, especially with all the technical terminology that would be used. So movies/tv shows can never be used as an accurate representation for many things. They cant make something scientifically accurate without taking away some other aspect of the movie/show. Thats why we dont use them for references.

In fact, today's video has shown light on something I've suspected: that's it all part of a spectrum. Because while I don't have DID, at times, it's easy -- very easy -- for my defense mechanisms to take person-like forms. I've often said that I missed DID by hairs. And this feels validated today.

I have experienced very similar things and feelings. My therapist said i have dissociative amnesia and derealization/depersonalization (along with a slew of other mental illnesses). We use IFS therapy model which gives an identity to your parts to help connect what inner part needs heard and healed. While many of us do not have DID, we have inner parts of us that were kept hidden dor similar reasons- to protect our mind and body. My "protecter" part of me often won't allow me to open up to anyone until they've proven themselves as trustworthy. And while this is not a whole different identity itself, its a broken piece of me trying to help subconsciously. IFS therapy has been a life safer honestly, its allowed my brain to communicate with those parts that are trying to tell me something but obviously can't. We do all have pieces of us that have their own roles, they just aren't full blown different identities. It truly is a scale.

XDDD], and I don't perceive them as completely distinct from me, just different sides to me, but they still almost feel like different people/give off some very different energies to my base state.

When me and my girlfriend first started talking she was scared about the logistics of me Dating someone with DID (AKA her) and if her DID would somehow make our relationship difficult. Luckily i had the knowledge from this channel to be able to support her with everything she needs. We've also been together long enough that i can usually tell who's fronting when, even if they don't outright tell me and i think that's also because they are all comfortable around me.

8:38 THIS. Sorry to comment twice but we had another thought lol. We’re so livid that this perception of DID is still around, and on top of that it KEEPS HAPPENING. A sequel to a horror movie that came out a couple years ago is in the works and the bad guy in that was heavily implied to have DID. And even the better representation of DID we’ve seen still falls into the same tropes as the bad ones. Moon Knight being the primary example. To start its portrayal was shockingly accurate, down to bringing up how childhood trauma plays a role in it. But towards the end of the show it used the “evil alter” trope to add tension and it pissed us off so much. DID isn’t a crutch or a plot device that filmmakers can use to make a horror movie villain more interesting or deep. It just makes more stigma.

However most of the time it’s covert. This is what DID is all about- our lives DID is there to protect us all to mask, to be who we are. But it’s definitely hard to get help because of the stigma, or lack of knowledge of how to help us. Currently I was in crisis, however, there’s a lack of support. I couldn’t really get support or help because lack of resources and professionals with this disorder. I am currently doing schooling in medical field and we have debated whether we want to continue creating content or keep ourselves private. We put our content on hold until we decide. It’s a hard decision to have because it’s already bad enough I’m Deaf and now DID is also in the picture that we now have to focus on in order to be successful and have effective communication system.

I like to believe I am generally open-minded and quick to grasp complicated or new concepts, but I wonder how I would have reacted to someone telling me they have DID if it was before I came across your videos. Especially if they weren’t as knowledgeable on or good at explaining their disorder… At least now I know for sure that people with DID have an ally in me. Even if someone should come across other people who didn’t believe them, I will. That’s in no small part thanks to your work over the years, DissociaDID. 💕

I love how even though you guys are specifically talking about DID, there is still good information and help for everybody. I struggle with depression, anxiety, and ptsd, and because of stigma, the ptsd part doesn't feel real or valid, and the depression has gotten to the point where I can't work, which feels stupid. And I so appreciate you guys telling people they can do it. I feel it, and I don't have DID. And I appreciate it, I appreciate feeling like it's ok to have mental illness, that I'm still a valuable and worthwhile person

honestly before I saw the Anthony Padilla video and then videos on this channel I only knew DID from media (and only one comedy show called it dissociative identity disorder, everything else still calls it multiple personality disorder) and while it all didn't make sense the way they presented it, I had no idea how DID forms, so I didn't give it much thought - it was just depicted as a mental illness, not a survival mechanism. And I think that's what we all need to realize about mental disorders - it's not just ill people, it's usually much more complex than that and we need to try and understand them instead as a society. And not treat these people as dangerous and scary, like so many people do.

The first point reminded us of an issue that's been a collective struggle lately. Getting frustrated at the body for not looking or sounding "right" is something we have happen a lot when a part that isn't used to fronting very often spends more time in the body. Some of the time it can be bad enough they feel they have to hide their face and avoid people and mirrors. Being patient and gentle with ourselves and realizing we can only do so much with the same body to differentiate has helped those parts adjust. Finding people who are able to still be respectful and see each one for who they are despite them looking "wrong" is the best fix we have found.

Love the hair! Getting Kyle vibes, Mike. ❤

I can't hold a job because I am mentally/emotionally 13 yrs old, everyone else in our system are 15-17 years old. Our ages is a main factor for why we are disabled and haven't been able to hold down a job. Trying to get progress moving in therapy

a lil anxious to leave a full comment, but- y'all's videos bring a lot of joy, and especially the angry ones feel very good and validating to see. it has given a lot of courage and- sense of realness, permission, i guess ? to feelings and stuff that come at night when i most expect them (cause havin' 'em at night feels safe an manageable) so yeah. y'all are a huge inspiration, even if it's entirely parasocial. i think we've been watching since early when nin was host? seeing the disociaDID project evolve so much has been very cool. so thank you. it takes SO much drive and courage and power to be a public figure at all, let alone with all the bullshit, and i just- can't imagine the kind of dedication to one's community and human well-being required to keep at it when so much tries to get in the way. even if it's plain to see y'all are stronger for it in the end, and are such a bright, warm light for all who see you, it still fucking sucked. i'm just glad y'all are still here, making these invaluable videos. y'all are really cool, much love, a random internet stranger :3

Mike "No you donkey-!" that literally made me laugh out loud. (and back up the video a couple times to hear it again, sorry, its how you said it and your expression and everything!) In all seriousness: Logical point, no wonder it's a pet peeve. And since we're talking about voices, if its okay to say, yours (even the accent?) is reminding me a lot of Kyle in this video.

Thanks for the video Mike and Soren! And I also just wanted to say a huge thanks to all of your awesome system for providing a safe space online! I was in a bad space when I started the video and actually sighed with relief when the intro music started (I find it really grounding). So thanks again, and thank you to Soren or whoever decided to to put it back at the start too!

when mike changed his voice to chloes voice I was caught SO off guard😂😂

1:42 hahahah I cracked up so much. imagine right after diagnosis they would go “first things first, let’s get you some voice training so you can get right on training how to use your body to sound different” “why?” “oh, so others can differentiate you better” 😂😂

WELL THA'TS A MASSIVE CAT RIGHT THERE SIR, adorable btw

Idk if anyone has ever told you this before but your videos help me write characters that have DID without them being like "the chosen one." Or super duper special. Your videos help me make them normal people. 😊

Haha, it seems that way, but on TikTok they mentioned that they recorded these videos over several months and are just now posting them. ATM, it's still difficult for them to record new stuff because of how they have been re-traumatized by a stalker. This is also why if you look at their TikTok, they don't have the same hair as in this video.

There's two misconception you missed that I think are very important. One is the fact that alters aren't separate people living in one body, but fragmented pieces of one whole identity that wasn't able to fuse normally due to trauma. It can feel like alters are separate people it's just not true. Two is that fusion is not a bad thing or something to fear but is the brain trying to heal from the trauma that caused it to fragment in the first place most of the time. As human brains are meant to be one identity state not fragmented.

Tfw I have a meltdown because I don’t think we can be happy and have DID, then I watch this and get called out lol

David is giggling over the voices point. We sound so similar, and it confuses our friends all the time lmao. -plum

I want to say that even though i dont have DID or ptsd, i was diagnosed with adhd only this past year. In addition to being glad to understand people with trauma and related disorders better, the core spirit of your videos to me is at least in part, open-minded understanding and acceptance, and patient compassion. Its something i needed to apply to myself for a long time, though i didnt know it. Turns out a deep sense of internalized shame and brokenness is an incredibly natural and common result of undiagnosed and under-treated adhd. Disentangling oneself from that for me requires acceptance and forgiving myself, so i can learn new ways of doing things that arent needlessly difficult. Im thankful to have multiple sources of support in my life now reminding me of that. Thank you for what you all have done, for real

This video is so spot on! Thank you for doing this, and helping other people learn about DID! : )

You guys fall nothing short of iconic and inspirational, thank you for making our Sundays worth while!

I found your channel a few years ago and I love your videos. I made some friends who have DID and since I had found you before meeting them, I wasn't completely clueless about DID. Your videos still help me with those friends and I'm so glad I watch your videos 🫶

I have never clicked a video this fast before, been very excited since the TikTok teasing it!

I love seeing your growth from when you first started the channel as Chloe to now. It is amazing that you just keep persevering even through all the terrible things that seem to be thrown at you, especially the last couple of years. You have a strength that is admirable. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge to the world. I know I've learned a lot over the years watching your videos. The mind is an incredible organ that can do amazing things to keep us safe. Thank you for your hard work and your bravery for sharing your journey!!

Thankyou SO much for addressing the 'violent victim' nonsense. I haven't told people i have DID , all i have to say is flashbacks or abuse survivor and i have had doctors and professionals , such as police officers immediately ask "do you have a murderer" ? or are you going to bite me? Like WHAT? So, i go to dentists, doctors ,MRIs etc suffer like hell and don't say a word..I'm 63 years old by the way. Your channel and one other has helped me so much, just not to feel alone and keep going i am grateful to my group for helping me survive; None of us are dangerous - unless you're allergic to sarcasm. PS That hair is Fantastic !

Love this! Its so good for ppl to know the misconceptions! Its important for everyone to know! Also, love the hair!!!🤗✨

Highlighting the biggest talking points, and hard hitting facts, is so good! I just LOVE the editing 🎉 great job, whoever is in charge of it ❤

I'm loving how your hair changes so much, SLAY! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
