It has a lot of Diablo's voice in it, but it couldn't have happened without your willingness to share, grow and learn from DID. Thank you -- now we can all learn (and laugh) and erase the stigma and embarrassment of being "different." :) I saw two episodes at a screening last week in San Francisco and LOVED IT.

As I mentioned to Diablo Cody on her myspace.. it was great. Sure I knew it was show but I also knew some real person was behind the information because it is soooooo real and so right on! I found out about my DID because I got off all the medications that were sedating me for years because of a surgery... I woke up to find journals and logs and chats that were me... BUT NOT me... My doctor knew all along but did not think I was stable enough to deal with the information so he would put me in the hospital when it would get real roller coaster like and I needed a stress releaving break. Long story short... I read books, I watched Sybil, 3 faces of eve... read and read and read.. Tried to find help.. it was a relief in one way that now I KNOW the reason for so much lost time, the being accused of things I honest to goodness had no clue about, it made things come together even though I was still so not in control. It helped my kids (though it was confusing too) to know there now was a reason for so many different things.. like one minute telling them they can go do something... then suddenly I would be frantic wondering where my kids were and my husband swearing I gave them permission but I didn't remember.. He thought it was just the bipolar or mood swings.. And that "waking up" and not realizing how you got where you are.. but too scared to tell anyone what you are feeling because they will lock you away for sure!! It has been nearly three years since finding out about my DID / MPD. I finally found a person who would attempt to treat me.. seems in my venture to find information what I found was how many do not believe it exist. I knew early on of 3 and the others slowly but surely made themselves known. We are up to 5 others besides just me.. we suspect at least 2 more. There are still fragments and a LONG road to go on and I am not entirely sure I like this stage of some pieces merging and not being able to just pick the parts I like to merge with and tossing the rest :) Yes I too have a Molly Home Maker... and a 5 year old who is perfectly content with only colors and dolls.. and oh dear.. the southern slag teen... Ironically I do have a Terra :) and apparently she is actually my "angry with the world, no one does ANYTHING right, male hater" It seems each alter and age is nearly pin pointed at each traumatic time in my life... well the big ones.. there are times I feel like most of my life is just one major roller coaster of drama and trauma! I have so many labels it isn't even funny.. SO.. after all that.. THANK YOU!! I look forward to the rest of US of Tara :) I too am DID / MPD.

I can't see how anyone with this diagnosis can be unhappy with the outcome of this series...regardless of the way in which it is portrayed. The public perception will definitely be impacted. Anyone that has a desire to learn more and understand more will be able to find adequate information without learning how to do a Boolean to find it. This is good...this is really good. *all smiles in SLC* Sorry to bounce in here again…but I’m so relieved and frankly, surprised at the amount of support and information that Showtime has just linked up (In the last 24 hours!) to their United States of Tara web page.
