16. How does DID/OSDD affect you physically?
Hard to tell what's DID and what's just generally body falling apart disease, but my chronic pain stuff can get worse or better depending on who's up front and how they're doing. Littler parts like to show off how our arm can bend backwards bc of hypermobility business, which sucks ass for the rest of us bc it hurts like hell. Glad it makes them happy tho. Toris also gets stomachaches easier and nausea when he's anxious, instead of getting headaches like most of us. Littler parts generally make us feel less pain, which is odd but nice. H is v health minded and remembers to stretch and exercise, which helps a lot.
17. What aspect of recovery are you working on right now?
I would call it diagnostics, I guess? Not diagnosing me, I've already been diagnosed, but like. Logging for myself the symptoms other people notice in me. Being more aware of myself and my body and my mind. My therapist says I need to stop pretending I don't have DID. So I guess also. Letting out tension, which sorta goes w the previous thing. Stop pretending I don't have symptoms, and log those symptoms instead.
23 I answered earlier!
