Bo has lived with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) for years, but before their diagnosis they thought they had narcolepsy because they would regularly "black out" with no memory of what had happened. In this episode of Tea At Four, hosts Lauren and Billy sit down with Bo to unpack the reality of living with DID, from the trauma that caused different parts of her identity to form, to the misconceptions they face every day online. They explains how many alters they live with, and how some of their alters have their own names, memories, ages, accents and even beliefs. Bo opens up about how their alters helped protect them from traumatic memories, what dating is like when different alters have different relationships, and why the internet needs to stop "fake claiming" people living with the disorder.This is one of the most honest and eye-opening conversations we've had about Dissociative Identity Disorder, trauma, memory and what it's really like to share your mind with different parts of yourself.
