And I almost never wasn't aware of another part of me being out once my amnesia broke. A few had specific things like hiccups or a lisp. Mostly my voice changed and I could identify who it was by certain physical sensations, but not setbacks. Therapy sessions I'm sure were always fun for my therapist. Very young ones used to know the most. Am sure it was seen as mood swings or having a bad day since no one knew I was multiple until I just fell apart.

DID (being a multiple) is a sealed fate by the age of about six. I don't know at what age someone might develop bipolar. Also, I'm not sure trauma is a necessary component of being bipolar. The one who develops DID (when it becomes known) usually becomes a family outcast rather quickly.Maggie Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13044824920398442496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7529664820669648146.post-40801992249496547742013-09-06T16:19:08.889-04:002013-09-06T16:19:08.889-04:00Is this also called bipolar?
