Thanks so much for your bravery and for explaining it. I have this less severely but I am totally aware it is happening but in a distant way as explained by the ladies. Thanks for this and hope you all get more support.
i hear voices i call them the peanut gallery. They talk among them selves. They are all me. By that i mean they don't have different names and sexes. My friend told me when i was talking to her about this that looking back on it she CAN tell which i am listening to at that time. Body language mannerisms differ. She said she thought it was mood swings. I don't wake up places and not know how i got there I don't buy things and not remember. I do sit down at times next thing i know its 5 hours later... Only when i am VERY stressed. I have had times (that last days at times) when i feel a loss of control. Like i don't realize what i am doing is fucking mental till im mid way.... I at times self harm. Not cutting but i have hit my self and my head into things i have learned to stop myself ish at least till im alone....it is embarrassing... That is when one of the voices turn in on me.... After a melt down like that i feel the urge to hide like a child.... I want QUIET. i have been living this way stop long idk which of why is actually me.
So true and so honest. Haven't seen many things like this where people who really *suffer* from Dissociation actually talk about it in depth. Can only hope I can make it onto the 'road to Discovery' too aha..
I have this and I'm in a really bad place at the Moe I can't get help from the NHS and my counsellor is away sick, I see her though a charity called pathways, does anyone know if there is help for people like me in the uk please.
Hi saragog, I'm really sorry to hear you're struggling at the moment. Could you perhaps get in touch with our Infoline? They might be able to find local services you're not yet in touch with, or help you to get better care from the NHS. You can call them on 0300 123 3393, email info@mind.org.uk or text 86463. Their info is here > www.mind.org.uk/information-support/helplines/ Take care, Ellie from Mind
Very courageous of these people to speak so openly and publicly - it's great the way people support each other.
Well done MIND!

THANKYOU all for being so brave and open. X
Is there any medication for feeling detached there's got to be something because I can't do anything when I'm detached
