Does anyone here have DID because I’m pretty sure my husband has a system and I need to convince him to bring it up to his therapist

What makes you think he has DID?

It sounds like your husband could possibly have DID, but my suggestion would be to bring up the issues that are happening - such as losing time or not being able to remember what happened - as the challenges a therapist could help with, as opposed to trying to get him to get rid of or integrate all the people in the system. It would also be important to go to a professional who is experienced and up to date on plural and DID treatment/issues. Not every therapist or psychiatrist is qualified.

He has at least four other people in his head with individual identies and likes and dislikes, I’m at college for most of the year and helping with my little siblings this summer so we don’t live together but there will be days where he won’t talk to me until it’s dark out and tell me that he doesn’t know what happened, he just found himself sitting in his room, he doesn’t know if he’s gotten up or if he’s been asleep or what, there’s times where he’s “spacy” and just loses time for hours

He can talk to and have conversations with the others in headspace and they answer back with their own opinions, that don’t even necessarily match his, like one of them is very gay and my husband learned this and was like “but whyy, dick is gross, why would he want that”

Yeah but he’s not going to go to a new therapist, getting him to go to this one js a struggle and half, so I need to convince him to talk to this about it so she can figure out the next steps
