I'm 52 years old now, and I spent most of my life living as multiple, with what is technically called dissociative identity disorder (DID).

I was officially diagnosed in early 2002, when I was in my late 30s. I had been quite successful in my study and my career. I had a family.

I thought my life was going well, to be honest, or at least the parts of myself who were living my life at that stage thought things were going well.
