I know when you're a system, especially if you haven't been lucky enough to get a formal diagnosis yet, the self-doubt is inevitable.
I think one of the best ways to deal with this is to ask yourself "who am I doing this for?"
A lot of people fakeclaim those with DID under the idea of they're doing it for attention, so here's some scenarios where you'd ask "who am I doing this for?"
When you're about to sleep, and you're talking to your alters and telling everyone that you need to go to sleep: who are you doing that for?
When you're blurry and blendy during the day, not really sure on who you are: who are you doing that for?
When the dissociation is too heavy to do anything and you need to take a break from school or work: who are you doing that for?
If you're someone who gets pseudo seizures/tremors during dissociation that is uncomfortable and scary: who are you doing that for?
When you hear an unfamiliar voice, similar to one you've seen in media, and it causes you dismay because you don't want another fictive: who are you doing that for?
As you can see in each of these situations it is ridiculous that you would be faking because what would you have to gain? And self doubt is a guarantee it's almost part of the diagnostic criteria due to the dissociative amnesia. But remember whenever you're in that spiral of self doubt ask yourself
Who are you doing this for?
