Please help...Im terrified and i feel alone. i love my husband to death but lately his mental health has gone way down hill...i always knew something was off but now he refers to himself in the 3rd person or wont respond to his name. I did some looking around and have found that he displays all or most of the signs of someone with Multiple personality or Dissociative identity. He has started seeing a counselor but i just want to know if anyone has personal experience with this either themselves or someone they love...

I am sorry you are so concerned and struggling. Hopefully by now your husband has gotten help and a proper diagnosis. For your mental health I hope you, too, go to a cousellor or a support group, or just out with a girlfriend for a little time for yourself. Try to educate yourself about his condition and the things that might trigger him so maybe you can help stave off the worst of it.
You must be under so much stress with worry in addition to everyday stressors and concerns. Exercise is also a wonderful release and endorphin rush! It's like taking meds yourself!!!
Please let us know how you are doing and let us walk this journey along with you.
Sincerely, Britt
