This video brought me more understanding than I have ever had on the topic before. It is so refreshing to find younger systems like yours, growing and thriving much earlier than many older systems had the ability to do. Not to say you aren't struggling, it's just the environment we are all struggling in today is so different than it used to be. We have folks like y'all to thank for that, you've opened the doors a whole lot wider. We are so grateful to learn from you and incorporate your wisdom and knowledge here. I think we are going to watch this video a couple of times. Speaking of shame, being a system comes with its own set of shame. I guess most mental and physical issues, disabilities or disorders come with a hefty amount of societal shame poured on us daily. From not being believed, to being devalued, to not being listened to, and not being provided any accommodations at all. I've been thinking a lot lately about the social theory of disability as it pertains to DID. I've been adding eastern vs. western thought to that as well. I think for a society like ours in America it is even more difficult. We see these difficulties in everything from our monotheistic belief structure, to our narrow view of sexuality and gender, to our difficulty comprehending that someones body or mind might be different than ours. I see multiplicity in a similar light to most Americans view of polytheism. We can't comprehend a vast array of gods and goddesses, we also can't comprehend a vast array of people in one body. Odd, coming from folks who think Jesus can live in your body. I need to think more about that! I'm rambling, but your video inspired me so, so much to cut the shame that it opened my mind and heart to creative possibilities of thought. Thanks so much!!!
Thank you, so much, for this beautiful comment! Your words were extremely encouraging to read and (I feel) held much truth to them. We're certainly lucky to be entering our healing journey when resources and community is growing as rapidly as it is, and we feel extremely humbled and honored to be apart of this change towards a safer healing environment. I'm so glad you were able to find this video helpful. I hope we're able to create many more in the future that have a similar impact. I agree the shame created around DID carries many nuances that aren't typically seen in other disabilities, but also that a great deal of experiences of disenfranchisement and social detachment intersect between communities. I really enjoyed reading your musings on this concept, so thank you kindly for sharing! And thank you, again, for leaving such a touching and thoughtful comment!
Your comment just made my day! Thank you so much. Attachment theory is definitely something that needs to be talked about more within the community. For us, understanding it has been monumental to our healing! I'm so happy you enjoy the content! I really appreciate your kind comment :)

Great video - thank you for putting this one out. I feel like this will always be a relevant topic for the mental health community, and one that is not talked about as much as it should be. Once more, thank you for adding your voices to this conversation.
