How do I deal with this?
in Psychology & Therapy ·
Hey.
Has she actually received a formal medical diagnosis for DID? And is there even any treatment for it?
I’m asking because it’s such a heavy, notoriously difficult disorder to pin down...
To be honest, I don't think I could ever get involved with someone living with that condition. The difference between this and any other illness is the behavioral volatility, the sheer unpredictability, and the potential for actual danger.
Mind you, I wouldn't walk away from a partner just because they were sick, but then again, you aren't in a relationship here.
It’s an incredibly complex situation... I’m curious to see what everyone else thinks.
