DISkret unter uns (Discreetly among us)

Dissociative identity disorder (DID) and other dissociative disorders can affect everyday life in many different ways. Memory gaps, inner switches, differing perceptions and the feeling of sometimes being a stranger to yourself are part of everyday reality for many people affected. On top of this, there are often prejudices, a lack of understanding and the difficulty of being taken seriously with your own experiences.

In our self-help group ‘DISkret unter uns’, we want to create a protected space where all of this is allowed to have its place. We want to share experiences, learn from each other, support each other and find ways together to deal with the challenges of everyday life. Not only burdens, but also abilities, resources and the diversity of inner worlds should become visible.

The group is only for people who have been affected themselves and is meant for sharing experiences as equals. Nobody has to say more than feels right at the moment – simply listening is completely fine too.
