Love how one of the biggest reasons I thought I couldn't have DID was because I didn't experience blackouts.
Then proceeded to refuse to consider it after I discovered that PDID is a thing.
Meanwhile, ironically, though I don't have major blackout moments, I do have a few minor ones on occasion.
I can't tell you how many times I might get snapped at for asking a question I just asked a minute ago. Not fun to try to explain "Oh sorry, my brain forgot it existed." So I just laugh it off and pretend I'm not terrified of the fact I don't remember the fact I just asked the same question.
Or I'll be cleaning and suddenly "come to" while walking to return an object I cleaned back to its place and I'll have to look at it and look around to see where I got it from because last I remember I was cleaning a different object. Like idk, what do you mean I cleaned this, since when?
And later in I'll laugh about these moments, but at the time it's pretty terrifying that I can't remember something that literally happened a minute before.
So idk. But at least some things are starting to make sense.
(Sorry for the run ons and bad grammar and stuff, I'm hoping it's not too bad. I'm tired and today was a day.)
