Manytalents; I'm sorry to hear you are having a hard time at the moment, with the meds and all, but I feel positive that with your many talents, you will make it through! I do not know what it feels like to go through your 13 alters, however, I did attend a group art therapy for a while a few years back, and one of our members also had the same thing. She created a really neat representation of herself out of cardboard, showing the many sides of her personalities. It was very interesting. However, I know that every time each of us had our turn at telling our stories we all cried or got emotional, and tried to comfort one another. I guess that's what I was looking for here, a place to find consolation and share consolation. I am very pleased to meet you, and hope this program will help you too. It has helped me somewhat, although I also believe for myself that I need meds. Are you another Patch Adams? I wrote to him recently...he became a doctor, and he got the idea to become one while in a psych ward for depression etc. He associated with another genius who had a leaking cup of coffee, and he patched his coffee cup. From then on, he decided he wanted to help others, and help "patch" things up. Maybe you have seen the movie? Your talents may be part of the problem, but they can also become part of your salvation....I wish I was talented too...but I just can't seem to find my role so clearly yet. So for the time being, I will try to meet people who understand somewhat on this site. Wishing you all the best... :blush:
