Anyone else have D.I.D. ? - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

hauntedbyjmb · 08-01-2009, 09:11 PM

Hi, I have 4 known Alters or they call themselves "Peeps" I am new to being aware of them and being able to understand this condition.
I have a 5 year old named ANNA who is just precious, a 14 year old named Monica, a 16 year old named Monique or as she goes by "Q", Harvey (the only male that I know of) who is also 16 years old. I have been told there is a very older one, that is very wise and has only been seen a few times. I have never seen any video tape of her. She calls herself "Meemee" and is an elder Oriental lady.
Does anyone else have this disorder or know about this disorder.
Oh, I am in treatment and have a treatment team to help me with this disorder, my medical Dr and all my workers are a part of my treatment.
One of the issues I have right now is I have started attending ALANON as an adult child and there has been major conflict with one of the 2 year "know it alls" in our group with MY Monique (Peep) who is very violant and defensive. I had to drop out because this got too much for me to manage, I feel like I deserve to be there just as much as she does. I am lost in my new venture of trying to heal from my past so Monique can intergrate but the lady is relentless and when I disclosed what the problem was, she just blew it off. I am hurting and confused about ALANON right now and Monique is too.
Any advice?

Have you considered one-on-one (so to speak) counseling with someone who specializes is addiction counseling? It might be less stressful for you and be seen as less of a threat to the "others".

Hugs and prayers,

Hello Hydro,
I appreciate your reply. We just found a lady who specializes in this area and a great Dr. They both want me to get back into ALANON and they will work with the girls on their own level of a program. There are other times they have to agree to stay in, like court dates and stuff. So, Monique "Q" is the only one I am concerned about because she takes up for me. I am very lucky to have the care I do have.
I appreciate your idea because it is right on where I am now.
We used to go to a group but the monies ran out, so they feel all alone until we found this wonderful place.
Everyone here is so very supportive and understanding and I am so happy this is here for all of us.
Thanks!

I have 5 alters that I know of - nothing to say to help but just wanted you to know you're not the only DID

Thank you so much. I am sorry you have had trauma and have had to endure this challenge too. I appreciate your post, it has helped me to know there are others out there. Please let me know if I can assist you in anyway. When I get better I will want to post more with you, maybe even private. THANKS! hugs!

Blue, I will have to figure out how to do that. I reply to people who have sent me messages but I have no clue how to start one, sorry and THANK YOU so much!

My friend in aa works the steps and has become one with all of her selves. She amazes me. She is now married with a daughter and one on the way and she is a school teacher.

May you find peace and serenity!
