Words matter, as Dr. Miller points out on our latest podcast episode. The term alters can lead professionals to mistakenly think that there is 1 “real” self, which is also why we are not fans of the term host. All of us & all of you+ are real and valid. #dissociativeidentitydisorder #therapistsky

You can work with dissociation and EMDR. Dissociation is not inherently a bad or negative coping mechanism, nor does it mean you can’t do EMDR. A few adjustments and accommodations can be made. #dissociativeidentitydisorder #dissociation #emdr #traumawork #traumatherapist

Implementing and maintaining boundaries as a trauma survivor can be difficult for many reasons! Listen to A Couple of Multiples: The Reality of DID on your favorite podcast app or at acoupleofmultiples.com #acoupleofmultiples #pluralsky #therapistsky #traumatherapist #didtherapist
Blue/Yellow background with various circles. Text reads: A Couple of Multiples:The Reality of Dissociative Identity and Podcast Season One Episode Twelve Season Finale. Boundaries will not be exactly the same for every single person. You have to have conversations about what makes you comfortable or uncomfortable. As a client that is often dissociated, we aren’t always aware of whether or not we felt comfortable.

It’s a photo of Hermione Granger from Harry Potter and the scene where she corrects Ron’s pronunciation of how to say leviosa. The meme reads: You’re saying it wrong. It’s dissociation. Not disassociation.

Clients may not know they are missing time. Our brains reordered our memories to hide the missing time. Therapists, look for gaps in stories and assess abilities to tell a story from beginning to end. Assess the meaning of “I don’t know.” #pluralsky #dissociativeidentitydisorder #therapistsky
Black & white with background of various clocks. Text reads: We never would have called it losing time. You don’t know you’re missing time. Season 1 Episode 2, acoupleofmultiples.com

Some selves within a dissociative system are not aware of other selves. Trauma memories maintain separation between selves by using amnesiac barriers to keep knowledge of trauma away from certain selves. Improving internal awareness of selves helps reduce periods of amnesia. #pluralsky #therapistsky
Yellowish-orange background with images of cracks. Text reads: This trauma was what was keeping our selves separated from each other. Quote from A Couple of Multiples: The Reality of Dissociative Identity Disorder Season 2 Episode 11.

People with DID are not like what you’ve seen in the movies. Selves can sometimes present very separate and distinct, and sometimes they blur together and it’s not clear who is fronting. More than one can front. Here’s a quote from our season 2 finale podcast episode. #therapistsky #pluralsky
A Couple of Multiples: The Reality of Dissociative Identity Disorder Podcast Season 2 Finale: Sometimes our adult selves get real blendy- meaning they experience a partial, temporary integration, and when that happens the doubt of who we all are sets in. I think being in denial and coming to acceptance is an ongoing loop in our healing recovery.
