I (that is, this alter that is writing now, as opposed to others in this system) come at it from the point of view that DID develops from an unintegrated sense of self due to trauma during the stage of development of the formation of the self-identity. Although I still cannot fathom how I could ever be able to see the abuse that happened to this whole person as something that happened to ME personally, I do believe that one day that will indeed happen. I understand the theory behind the phenomenon of dissociated states of identity and understand that although it does not feel like it in any way shape or form, the abuse and trauma happened to the whole person of which I myself am only one dissociated aspect.
I hold blind faith that I will one day see myself as a singular integrated sense of self with the other dissociated alters of this single individual.
