We didn’t have any luck with cbt/dbt they were both super invalidating at best and gaslighting at worst. Hoping to find a therapist that will just keep track of us as we open up about history and help facilitate communication. We did get on some meds that have helped some of the symptoms tho- depakote seems to help the derealization and (unfortunately we are allergic to it but) when we tried lamictal that one seemed to make brain fog much clearer too.

meds help with some symptoms of DID but they aren't a full treatment plan...for DID....a treatment plan would look like some form of therapy, that being trauma work or just CBT...we right now are doing trauma work and a mixture of DBT and CBT...we are also on some meds to help with the symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety and TS
