Navigating the Workplace: Understanding Split Personality Disorder

In today's dynamic work environment, fostering empathy and understanding is crucial. Let's delve into the often misunderstood realm of Split Personality Disorder (Dissociative Identity Disorder) and explore how workplaces can become more inclusive for those navigating this condition.

Breaking the Stigma: Unveiling the Realities Split Personality Disorder is not synonymous with volatility or unpredictability. By shedding light on the intricacies of this condition, we can challenge stereotypes and create a workplace culture that embraces diversity of thought and experience.

The Power of Awareness: Educating Teams Building awareness is the first step towards an inclusive workplace. Offering workshops or training sessions can empower teams with the knowledge needed to support colleagues with Split Personality Disorder, fostering an environment of compassion and collaboration.

Accommodations and Flexibility: Redefining Workplace Norms Recognizing the unique needs of individuals with Split Personality Disorder, organizations can implement flexible work arrangements and accommodations. This proactive approach not only supports employees but also enhances overall workplace well-being.

Open Conversations: Encouraging Dialogue Cultivating an open dialogue about mental health creates a safe space for individuals to share their experiences. By fostering communication, organizations can dismantle barriers, promoting a workplace where everyone feels valued and understood.

Leadership's Role: Setting the Tone Leaders play a pivotal role in shaping company culture. By openly supporting mental health initiatives and prioritizing inclusivity, leaders can set a positive tone that resonates throughout the organization, promoting a culture of empathy and acceptance.

Embracing Differences: Leveraging Strengths Individuals with Split Personality Disorder often exhibit remarkable resilience and adaptability. By recognizing and leveraging these strengths, organizations can tap into a diverse pool of talent, driving innovation and creativity.

Employee Resource Groups: Creating Communities Establishing Employee Resource Groups focused on mental health can provide a platform for shared experiences and support. These communities foster a sense of belonging, breaking down isolation and promoting a collaborative, understanding workplace.

Beyond Labels: Humanizing the Workplace Let's move beyond labels and recognize the humanity within each individual. By fostering a culture of empathy and understanding, organizations can create a workplace that values every person's unique journey, ultimately contributing to a more harmonious and productive environment.

In conclusion, embracing diversity in all its forms, including mental health, is not just a moral imperative but a strategic advantage. By understanding and accommodating individuals with Split Personality Disorder, we can cultivate a workplace that thrives on the richness of human experience. Together, let's build a future where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued.

It’s been a long while since we posted here but we’re really happy with this newest video, serving up myths vs facts on DID/OSDD 😊 we hope the community will like it just as much 💗 it’s a video we hope can be given to any skeptic and hopefully give them ample reading/rebuttal to their stigma.

Hfhdj hello!! I just wanna say ur blog seems rly nice and it's rly helpful, which is why i'm sendign this wah,, my best friend just figured out that he probably has did !! Ive met some of the alters in their system and I love them all,,, Ive been as supportive as I can but I was wondering if u had any advice on how to make sure they feel rly accepted and loved! Again ur blog is super nice aaaa have a good day !!

Aww this warms my heart 💜 I will start this by saying each system (and alter for that matter) is different and will have their own view on what supportive looks like!

That being said, we CAN tell you our experience or at least what we think supported/supportive, as well as some red flags to look out for that you may need to take a step back/the system is being toxic to you(because that can be true)

1. No alter is purely evil, they may act out but it’s because they’ve been hurt before in the past

🟥 An alter’s abuse should never be okay, and every other alter should take charge of whatever consequences may come of another alter’s bad behavior, no “it wasn’t me it was my alter!” See system responsibility

🔴 (for systems) it is your responsibility as a system to not abuse anyone else, not taking responsibility for your or another alter’s actions is being just as bad as the person who abused you. And yes, it is that serious.

2. Don’t willfully try and trigger out alters, if they tell you their triggers, even if the triggers are “positive” it’s still not a great experience for any alters involved.

2 1/2. Don’t ask the person who is fronting if someone else can front instead, it’s like showing up to a gathering and someone going “uh can you leave I wanted to see your sister instead” like no I’m here wtf)

3. Treat them as separate people, even though they look to you like facets of the host they are in their own sense people

4. Generally it’s a respectful thing to ask “who’s fronting?” (Don’t ask “who are you right now?”because, “I’m always me?” Is almost guaranteed to be the answer)

4 1/2. You may not always get a straightforward answer, sometimes switches take a long time and we can be a bit blendy, this doesn’t make their DID invalid.

5. NEVER ASK ABOUT WHAT THEIR TRAUMA WAS unless they tell you willingly, it’s private information and because of the DID chances are whoever you’re talking to doesn’t know the full story because...that’s how it works..?

6. Stay calm through switches. Sometimes they can take hours sometimes they can take minutes. Don’t try and rush them out of it because chances are you’ll make it worse. Don’t touch them unless you have gotten consent previously as it can be triggering, and don’t try to snap them out of their dissociation, just be patient with them.

6 1/2. When a new alter switches in depending on how good the system communication is (in your case if your friends is just finding out it’s probably not great as it takes a lot of work and time to get good communication) most likely the alter will be very disoriented and fearful. Best thing to do is pretend like a friend nervously just walked into the room, tell them that they’re in a safe place, introduce yourself, let them know what’s going on and where you are.

🟥 if they try to get you involved in innerworld/system drama, RUN. Taking sides with a persons different identities isn’t helpful, if they are asking for advice please direct them to a mental health professional. Anything else you do will result in worse communication between alter with the person and will put you on a bad side with a part of the system.

🔴(for systems) It’s toxic as someone with DID to try and rope someone into innerworld drama, it’s not their business and it’s going to hurt the relationship between you and them.

6 1/4. IF THEY TELL YOU SOME NEGATIVE TRIGGERS PLEASE TRY TO AVOID THEM AS BEST YOU CAN, pretty self explanatory, this is a disorder that has to be formed in trauma, and they can and probably will have a flashback which is a horrible situation for all parties involved. Just don’t do it.

7. Littles and teen alters are not adults pretending to be children and teenagers, they really have that mindset. Don’t expect them to act like an adult and treat them as though they are the age they present as

7 1/2. DO NOT EXPOSE TEEN ALTERS OR CHILD ALTERS TO ADULT CONTENT THEY ARE NOT ADULTS this should be a no brainer for most but it needs to be said just to be clear

8. I definitely recommend they seek professional treatment if they can, as close and supportive of a friend you may be, you cannot substitute the treatment of a trained professional. This will not only create a better foundation for system communication and healing and coping with living as a system. It can also create a concrete diagnosis and rule out any other potential factors and/or explain if there are any other comorbidities (BPD, MDD, Bipolar etc can be comorbid with DID but require different treatment than DID)

9. There is a lot of terminology out there for DID/OSDD. Check what the community uses but if they say they don’t like a certain word or phrase, don’t use it.

10. Finally BEING CLOSE TO SOMEONE WITH DID CAN BE EMOTIONALLY TAXING, BE AWARE OF HOW YOU YOURSELF ARE DOING. It’s okay that they are that way and it’s okay to step back and take a break. this is a person that’s been through a lot and is likely not in a stable place, it’s okay if you yourself need to take a step back and rejuvenate. As I love to say, “you cannot pour from an empty cup, fill your’s up first”

Take care of yourself first friend and you will be able to support so much better ❤️

This is all I can think of at the moment, I’m sure I’m missing a few things and other DID/OSDD systems feel free to add on if you guys have any other things you’d like this person to know

Hope it helps!

To anyone in the DID community also outraged by Trish Paytas' recent video coming out as having "multiple personality disorder" (a super outdated term) and spewing misinformation left and right, I'm with you 🤬

Hey, you know who you are: please stop reading our blog posts and then making long boring "PSA" posts about how our system is built wrong. It's really tiresome and I hate it. We've blocked you, take the hint

Thank you to anon for bringing this to our attention

An FYI to those who come across that person's post. The inner world isn't JUST a metaphor. It can also be used:

- for the brain to carry out threat simulation*

- to express emotion safely when you don't have a way of safely expressing it externally

- to provide comfort by way of dissociation, because we with DID naturally dissociate when times are hard so to have a maladaptive daydreaming like element to your relationship with the inner world is relatively common and understandable

*by threat simulation I mean it will play out alters dealing with situations similar in nature to what they deal with outside because the brain is always on high alert. So a protector inner world might get into a lot of fights or stand up for strangers, it's like mini rehearsal of successfully navigating conflicts

So if like us you find it can be intrusive sometimes (for us specifically when pain has been unbearable lately) that doesn't make you fake. Also our alters are semi-aware that the outside world exists when they're inside. This is unusual and we know this, but not unheard of. They aren't constantly thinking about outside or able to think about it in detail but they know it exists enough to understand that someone had a hard day fronting and is in a bad mood, or to remember things they've learned out here that they wouldn't have learned inside (mostly healthcare related for us).

You might not like this very much but we tried living with the assumption our inner world was our headspace instead at OPs insistence and it hurt, confused us, and brought our brain to a dizzy foggy standstill. Now we have our inner world again like we used to and guess what we can function again. Here are some people who know all this about our inner world and had no issue with it:

- Diagnostician #1 (UK Expert in DID)

- Therapist (has decades of experience working with DID)

- Therapist 2 who is taking over while therapist has surgery (has less but lots of experience with DID)

- Us

So I'm afraid if you don't like the way our system works you're going to have to deal with it. We're sure of ourselves and someone with absolutely no psych credentials making a tumblr post isn't going to frighten or bully us into hiding or changing the way we work, and we hope that by taking this stance we reassure other systems who don't meet the criteria a known abuser with absolutely no medical training is trying to enforce

#actuallydissociative #so apparently #the fact our inner world has been very distracting lately is wrong #didcommunity #actuallytraumagenic #please reblog

The DID community is super depressing sometimes like why are y'all... fighting ?? instead of healing

Here’s our latest video discussing “factitious DID”

Here’s a brief rundown:

- Factitious DID is extremely hard to spot

- it can only be noted by experts in the field (and not by armchair psychiatrists online, even when using this suggested checklist) and said-person who would know they are feigning symptoms

- I’ve only given the titles of each checklist item, so that if there is any strange person wanting to try and fool someone for a diagnosis, i won’t be that source as there’s far more detail in the paper

- according to research, around 10% of all diagnosed DID is feigned although far more research needs to be done in the field and this did not take into account OSDD

- someone with DID checks around 3 of the list, someone needs to check 8 or more to be considered feigning

- That being said, yes it’s wrong to fake, but do not shame or attack others for it as they clearly need support themselves

- the most important thing, if you are experiencing symptoms, is to not force yourself into a diagnostic box, but to speak to a professional who can help work with your symptoms for treatment, whether it is or whether it isn’t DID, it doesn’t matter: the most important thing is you get support for your symptoms

Hope that helps 😊
