I am part of a couple of Facebook group for DID. I don’t participate a lot but I love most of the discussion. One grab my attention this week. Someone posted a question about having 2 hosts and not knowing about it. I replied that my system is composed of 2 hosts. That person then … More My 2 hosts
Integration has been on my mind for quite some time now. On one hand, I think it could be good to be “whole” but my heart (and head) goes more to the “no” for integration. Let’s see it that way: I always lived with parts, I don’t know life without them, I love them as … More Integration isn’t for everyone

As usual, a lot is going on in my head. For many years now, I’ve been a strong believer that you need to talk about mental illness to educate people. I wanted to help others by opening myself to them. 18 years ago, I started to see a therapist for self harming and depression. … More A bit of a change
I promised myself at the beginning of the year to write a blog post at least once a week. The thing is, right now, I don’t want to blog but somehow I know it would help me. This week isn’t a good week. Don’t ask me why, if I knew I would do something about … More This week… Meh
Living with DID seem both simple and complex. From the outside, I have a pretty simple and easy life for anyone else. The first 3 days of the week, I try to work from home, I am building 2 businesses (I’m trying at least). I wake up at 7.45am and drive J. to the train … More A day in my life with my DID

I … More Therapy session of the day
