DD is dissociative disorder, nos (non-specified). I have different parts inside (children of different ages) who have their own personalities and the voices sound like children's, not like mine as an adult. Almost all the time I am conscious when they talk and I don't lose time or I would be diagnosed as DID (dissociative identity disorder)--the old name was multiple personality disorder.

I don't know if I'm feeling any effects of abilify yet since I had stopped it, then just restarted two days ago at 7.5 mg. My concentration has been horrible, but Thursday my dad had a horrible allergic reaction to chemotherapy (he has lung cancer) and he's now in intensive care, not breathing on his own. It was so sudden and I'm out of town at my mom's right now, so everything feels out of wack.
