i keep mulling over what the head psychiatrist of the trauma ward said at our meeting about how i needed to learn how to integrate my splintered parts and give them a leader who could keep me together. like, i really felt that, but it also reminded me a lot of what therapy for DID is. i do experience strong dissociation, and i have cPTSD. are they basically the same? i read that some people suggest that DID and BPD are actually just cPTSD and should be put under that classification, and as someone who meets the diagnostic criteria for at least BPD and dp/dr i agree. maybe i shouldn’t think about this so much, i don’t know, i just never had someone word it like that and i felt very seen, but also like something came undone.
