I think my marriage would have eventually ended for even other reasons
As far as the DID, it did terribly effect both my marriages...my first joined a group of false memory syndrome people.
That hurt very much and it really confused my girls.
My abuse was extremely severe, and well hidden as the alters were compliant and I was an extremely shy and "goodie two shoes" kind of child. I was also got very high grades in school, so why bother with me? I do know that 2 of my teachers at least were aware of my abuse. My father was an officer in the Army and we moved LOTS!
As far as losing time, I didn't think that I actually lost time and I have found that I often have short bouts of it, depending on circumstances.
For instance, it takes me 4 hours to go shopping at Target...go figure.
The other thing is that I don't sleep at night and I'm not always sure what happens at night.
good luck
Hope...
who is different than hopey...
