But it's hard to blame them because I overthought DID and found it confusing myself.      But I've been getting my anger back down and reaching out some more. I had a blip with the ritalin and it's not a smooth and steady process. I felt like I wasn't being given choices. When you're the youngest, you get a lot of unsolicited advice and the choices are often made for you.       I was stuck in patterns and I knew myself, I knew that if ...
