According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), It's estimated that 2% of people experience dissociative disorders, with women being more likely than men to be diagnosed. Because of the way dissociative identity disorder (DID) is portrayed in the media, most people don't understand what the disorder actually entails, or how common it actually is. In this Patient Spotlight video, you'll meet Encina, who sheds light on her experience living with DID. You'll also meet Minnie, the three-year-old girl living inside Encina's body.

At 52:00 she says a husband didn’t know that his wife had DID. How is that possible? 🤔 If personalities are not under her control, Im sure the wives alters would have come out at some point during their relationship- so how come he didnt know.

@@shaktizoom5236 As someone who has DID, I can tell you that the differences between alters are usually not as glaringly obvious as they are in movies and TV shows about DID. This disorder is a coping mechanism that develops to protect a person's mind, and as such, part of that protection involves hiding the fact that there is anything "wrong". We become very good at hiding, and often, many DID people don't even realize that they have it until they are an adult. We first realized that we were multiple when we were 18, even though our first split happened when we were 4 years old. So, if we can even hide it from ourselves, it's not difficult to see how a wife could hide it from her husband. That said, I would not recommend for anyone who has DID to purposely hide it from their spouse. We made sure that our now-wife knew about our DID before we asked her to marry us. If this is someone that you love enough to want to spend the rest of your life with, you should feel comfortable enough to share any secret with them, especially one that is that impactful on your life and theirs. I'm not saying this to judge anyone who has kept it a secret, just giving some friendly advice that it's better to be open with your spouse about it. If they truly love you, they will not judge you about it. I hope this helps you to understand better. Take care, Leyna of the Doug Vincent system

Damn- I’ve suffered from DID ever since I was 7 too! Honestly the weird thing about it is that I don’t know how my alters formed, or when they showed up. I just assume that they came when I was 7 since that’s when I started “acting up.” I’m so sorry that you had to go through this for SO LONG. I’m only a teenager and having to deal with this for about 6 years is bad enough for me, so seeing someone else have to go through this about 1937x longer (exaggeration yes yes) is.. wow.

They were a part of our relationship always. Some were children, many adults, spirit guides, dogs. Even groups of individuals such as a collective board. This also brought on other behaviors' including bad hoarding was a difficult time constantly but you love who you love.

Isabella S - Exactly. If you’re interviewing someone who’s struggling to even just be there and likely mulled over the decision to even show up or not, don’t speak over them. Also, be a tad more sensitive to how their feeling. Ask if they’re comfortable with what you’re asking them to share, not just “tell me about all of them” and “what happened to you”. Should’ve done more sensitivity research.

DID is always the result of abuse and more often than not the result of Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA). People need to look into this so humanity can put an end to this horror. It's more widespread than you might think.

This was so moving to watch. Its also worth giving 'Maladaptive daydreaming' a mention as that's also another form of disassociation. I created a whole new 'world' as a disassociation from childhood trauma. It's very real and can continue into adult life.

Everyone dissociates (even regular daydreaming, or that moment when you are driving and suddenly find you've reached your destination without remembering the journey - those are both forms of dissociating too). It only becomes an issue when it's happening regularly enough to cause practical issues, or is associated with emotional distress etc. PTSD and BPD are both disorders that also have dissociative aspects too. And anyone can dissociate under enough stress, at any age. DID is just one extreme end of that, and I wish more people understood that dissociating itself isn't rare, not even slightly.

I wonder - if Maladaptive Daydreaming was the official name for DID, would more people better understand/accept it? MD keeps the aspect of a person choosing to embody an alternate reality, which would be a 100% understandable thing for a trauma survivor to do.

Im 61 years old now and just being diagnosed with DID after being evaluated again after 30 years. I also went for a second opinion and got the same diagnosis. My life has been hiding me from people and family also. I been just labeled crazy all my life. I just want to live what life I have left learning to touch my children, grandchildren, my great grandkids and they feel real to me.

I like that too. I wish more people had that attitude with the usual designated "victims" (like being gay, trans, race etc.), and realized that there are so many different kinds of suffering in this world and so many ways of being victimized that one can't possibly expect everyone to understand every way of suffering and every way of being victimized, and every detail about how you are supposed to act and think around each. I have things about myself that are hard to understand and believe, and wish people did understand, sometimes desperately so. But it's just not possible to understand everything. I do think it would be better if more people were understanding people. Less quick to judge harshly, being caring and sensitive about the feelings of people in general, and tried to understand others. But not everyone is like that, so it's probably best to find people who you can trust, rather than expect everyone to be people you can trust. It seems like she understands this.

@RheeasDomain

So instead of trying to help her with grounding activities, such as reading, soft sports, animals, walking in nature, eating healthy etc., they just put a label on her so she stays there and use her as a human testing hamster? And she's free to jump from relationship to relationship like a bee from flower to flower because "they help her". Ok, yeah that makes sense, we found out a new thing today ladies and gents, sex is amazing, amazing discovery right there. I am also curious to know what Walmart licensed "therapists" she's seen in the US, because the amount of lies and pretended "diplomas" and merits are just over the board there and in many other places. There's always a question of what family do you come from: functional or essentially dysfunctional where kids are maltreated and do not receive love, care or affection, have to deal with domestic fights, abuse etc. You really don't analyse what this lady says and how certain passages do not really make sense. "if I sometimes eat wheat or bread i get dizzy, tired, loopy" and people in 2018 still do not know that this is the side effect not from a natural, non GMO crop but from a product full of crap, maybe some of you should fo to an old grandma from south-eastern europe/russia and taste real bread and see how well it makes you feel, unlike some papa John's Pizza bread, but no, let's blame it on some imaginary new issue. Many people get that feeling from a heavily processed food/product, but do not feel it anymore when eating something healthy or cooked by themselves. Next. You just fall into the trap of "wow so interesting we humans are so amazing at discovering new things" -> so instead of trying to help this lady "merge" into one entity aka herself... because you don't need to call different attitudes "other personas" just to exempt yourself from the guilt or responsibility... "Oh I just killed a baby... yeah that was Devon's fault" (just made up an example), you just encourage her to remain the same and not solve her issues. Good job american society. Way to go. Every rarest and weirdest health or mental issue on earth, you have it. But it can't be the society's fault, or the pollution, etc... nooo, not at all, it just so happens. So much evolution there. In other places people would call what she has spiritual imbalances or being possessed and she'd definitely be appointed for some church services. I am really unsure which approach is better or worse at this point, it always seems to be one extreme or the other and people just being blind and stupid as fuck. What's next, a rapist saying he didn't rape young girls, that it was his alter ego's doing, or that he simply identifies as a kid himself? Oh wait, that's already happening. Oh bummer! People and famous artists have had similar affections in the past, but it seems like society today has lost all common sense about how "openly accepting" these instead of trying to correct them is affecting the young generations and how, to get attention or exempt themselves from responsibilities, people will start faking disorders, and even to get to power and important positions. Do you know what people with REAL traumatic life experiences say? Not what this chick says, just to be clear. many people can have very different attitudes depending on the situation they find themselves in, and different hand writing depending on their emotions/what they're thinking, and different this and that, but everything combines into the self, or the self takes over. For something to be so acute, like it is for this girl, something must've gone terribly wrong at some point and she just gave up trying, "because therapists told her it's totally fine". It feels awful, simply awful to have the personality/brain switches she's experiencing, and anyone saying "oh so cute" should go facepalm themselves a couple times, the same people who see an animal in pain in a video or irl (i will refer to horses) and call it "wow so majestic and cute" just because the animal has some pink ribbons or blankets on top of them, but meanwhile the horse suffers from laminitis and has destroyed nerves in the tongue because of heavy and painful bits and improper shoeing.

So before you come on here and make such false accusations like you just did, remember there are so many people in this world struggling with something. I might not have DID, but I have multiple mental issues that I don’t think is cute at all. Hence why I find myself wanting it to end constantly, but I try and keep going for my husband and my 20-month old daughter. You don’t know anything about me.

I know there are people that try and glorify these issues so I can definitely see where you are coming from. I think that’s why more and more people are becoming afraid to open up. They fear they’ll be looked at as just needing attention or trying to look “cute” when it’s so much more than that.

She’s been so brave and honest. Hoping more people will understand DID better. We are not crazy.we are not making things up. We are the victims if people knows better how DID happens. I’m not as brave as she is. I’m just felt hopeless and scared. I pushed people out of my world to keep myself and others safe. Talking to my alters always had me crying. I’m no longer sure about things,people, and incidents around me. I didn’t meet my alters, but we speaks.it’s people around me,waking up in weird places,the mess around myself,things I’ve done and I have no recollection of it. She’s right,we think about dying everyday but we don’t plan it. Being friends with two of the alters made me feel kind of safe or peace. There’s no medication or cure to it. But I believe we can be happier and get more knowledgeable about it when we face our alters bravely. Bless all the people with DID. The helplessness we had constantly, the pain of having people running away from us after knowing it, the longing for understanding and acceptance from people, finding love is just something so impossible. We are held accountable for a lot of time that we have no memory of it. Honestly I don’t know what can be worse. We may find some peace within ourselves when we embrace the alters. In reality , we are not given any kindness and understanding.

I 100% believe you and I'm aware of how DID is often linked to ritual abuse and child sex trafficking. The abusers who intentionally create DID in children are evil. I'm joining you in blessing all the people with DID. Have you heard of Alison Miller, the pyschologist? She has a book written for survivors called "Becoming Yourself: Overcoming Mind Control and Ritual Abuse'. It can be a triggering and dangerous read for survivors who have parts programmed into them for self-harm/suicide, so listen to your intuition about when to read this, or who to read this with. Lastly, I think it's perfectly okay to have alters -- you don't need to be a singular; you can thrive as a multiple, and I think that's perfectly normal given what you went through. You can be healed and multiple. Allow yourself that freedom and grace.

If they were maybe a fully mentally developed adult they could cope with it. But we’re talking about a child who doesn’t know how to act or think of the situation. They could think this was normal and go through their entire life being abused. They could end up like the lady in the video. Or worse.

Did you notice that this Gal is barefooted and frequently rubs her feet around? This is a technique to stay in the present and hold off switching into another personality. It is called grounding. I keep watching her feet. It tells a lot about what is going on in her brain and emotions. When the host ask her to itemize the traits of her parts, her feet showed upset. So, she declined and changed the subject to keep from switching. It is all very very logical and organized.

@@marthaalavez1537 Yah, MPD/DID is an incredibly organized logical condition. It is the brain at it's finest. All the parts can be organized and managed with the development of an executive committee. 3-5 main parts accept who wants to be in their group. Then the ones in their group get to say what they want/need and this creates one main vote. All three groups vote and everyone gets their needs met. There is a lot less acting out or taking control of the entire body from the rest when everyone knows they get a say and a chance. Just like a government. Been there, done that myself. I am now integrated.

I have DID and I've always found it so difficult to explain the fronting of my alters but the way Encina explained it was amazing. It was really reletable and it mad me able to explain myself better towards my family and friends. :D Having supportive people around you is so important. I used to have very little control and my alters would rarely front with other people around which made it difficult for me to grasp an understanding of what was happening exactly. The moment I started making more friends and becoming closer with them, trusting them, my alters would feel safe enough to front around them. Afterwards my friends could tell me stuff about them and it was really so eye opening and relieving to finally understand myself, all parts of me, better. So as Encina said in the beginning, support is super important. Much love to anyone out there with the same struggles, it will get better

I was diagnosed with DID about two years ago and what Encina is saying completely resonates with me. I have such a hard time explaining this to people and have only really told a very close friend, my mom, my brother, and his girlfriend (the latter two only because they live with me). Her examples are completely spot on and there were times I was like "oh my gosh, that's exactly it" and I'm taking a few clips from this to talk to my therapist so I can better explain what's going on. Also, I have a younger personality as well who goes by 'Mikey.' I'm still in the process of naming and getting to know my personalities. There are at least seven that I'm aware of, but only two have been very 'known' and come out on an almost daily basis. Also, my therapist and I are both learning new things about the disorder every week. That being said, 'Mikey' and 'Jay' are almost just like her 'Minnie' and 'Devin.' Mine aren't male personalities, they're gender fluid even though my body is female. But I refer to them as being 'he/him' because my therapist and I use picture cards to help me get a visual of them and these two personalities happened to have men on their cards. The other thing to note about my trauma is that I only had one (safe) thing to help me at the time; superheroes on Saturday morning cartoons. Specifically Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. So when my personalities were forming, they took on similar roles to those of the TMNT boys. So 'Mikey' is like 'Minnie' in that 'he' is very energetic and happy and loves superheroes and pizza and watching cartoons and helping me feel better after a long day. 'Jay', on the other hand, is like 'Devin' in that 'he' protects 'Mikey' (or, really, all of us). 'He's' he one who's confrontational and stands up for me in difficult situations where I would normally just let it go and cry in a corner. Fun fact: 'He's' actually the only personality I have that's capable of feeling anger but usually only shows it when I'm driving. (I am a very angry driver and that's the only time I get angry unless I'm protecting one of my 'parts' or someone else I care about.) In case you can't tell- 'Jay' is based off of 'Raphael'. 'He' was later named 'Jay' because the TMNT boys closely relate to Batman's Robins and 'Jay' is short for 'Jason'. As in Todd. All of this being said, Encina is absolutely spot on in exactly what DID is and how it feels to experience it- at least from my experience. Another thing I related with in the video that I want to touch on because it came up recently in my life is that one personality may suffer from something while another may not. With her, it was gluten. With my parts, some have disorders while others don't. Such as, 'Mikey' is perfectly fine and content and loves having conversations and getting to know people. He's incredibly social and always smiling. Whereas another personality I have (who is currently going by 'Sorry') has EXTREME (almost crippling) social anxiety and will break into tears if anyone speaks to her, or even if anyone looks at her the wrong way. So...usually 'Mikey' is the one ordering food at restaurants- which is fine because we end up getting something sweet and delicious. However, 'Todo' (my 'get it done'/mature personality) would prefer that we have something healthy. But who wants healthy when you can have a milkshake, right?

@blumiu2426
@blumiu2426 5 років тому
That's...interesting. In ritual abuse, objects like teddybears and toys are used to bond with, then they destroy them or have them "witness" the abuse to create a trigger or disconnect. I've never heard of an object becoming a personality, because the brain is what decides what and how that thing is and reacts. If anything, maybe thought they were a teddybear, but were not; inanimate objects or non-humans is when skepticism comes in because to help cope, only a human can rationalize (thus human alters), not anything else. That goes against a working system.

It just breaks my heart, the thought of someone hurting her as a little child.

@@pupisuci If you do have DID or OSDD, it is pedophilia and it is not OK even when you have an adult body and no one can help your littles out of that situation legally. Littles in DID/OSDD are emotionally real children. They can act sexual ways, if that was their job to do when trauma happened, but continue doing it to them is not OK. If your "little-space" is a role play and there's no trauma behind that, then it's a different thing. Then it's an adult pretend playing they are a kid, and it's completely different thing from DID. DID-systems don't usually show their littles publicly like this, because all kind of Ds and DDs go after them if they do, and don't respect the fact these are actual children and need to be treated as real children. And just like a real life children, if they act sexually adult ways, it's a sign of trauma and they need help and adults to protect them. They aren't bad if that's how they are like, but they need help. Exploiting them more is not OK, ever. It will just make the traumatic beliefs of what they are and why they exist even deeper than it was.

Omg i adore Minnie! This was a wonderfully informative video and I want to thank Minnie and encina for being so open to sharing your worlds with us. I have an internet friend with DID and at first I didn’t even realize they were a different person (I totally didn’t realize they were DID, I thought they were changing handles), and though I wouldn’t have been judgmental I may have wanted to ask them questions to learn more (I know I would’ve been curious)- but because I made zero deal over them coming out to me, I was able to witness them open up in such a beautiful way since a safe space had been made for them. I’ve seen them go through so much and be so courageous even with all they go through (I think the disassociation during Switches may give them lots of anxiety) and I feel like I can learn to support them and others better with this info. Thank you encina for being willing to be so open and please tell Minnie thank you for letting us meet her. You are doing wonderful work ❤

@@chadbauchman9700 I blamed society. I never harmed this woman. For a child to be abused and her abuser to go unpunished is a blame we must take as a society! We have countless charities and foundations set up for children in America whose parents cannot trusted with their safety. When the parents fail, society takes over. Alot of children are harmed in this process and this poor woman fell through the cracks

Thank you Encina, it was beautiful to me you and your alters. You explained it so well and in harmony. I felt his questions did get a bit firing out at the beginning but I believe that's just someone trying to understand it in the early days of their journey with alters. Thank you for sharing. People forget it's part of growing up and developing ourselves through what we've lived. I see nothing unusual and embrace realities and self expression, what ever that may be. I met an alter after she came out in a girl I met at an AA Convention after an Alateen meeting. I enjoyed our time together and knew exactly what was occurring and felt I could be there for her. She said she'd never felt so accepted. Acceptance and love is so very powerful. Bless you all, Kari
