So, I was researching some DID writing tips and I found this video!

I'll post some more when I find them.

Thank you! It's important to share things like this because misrepresenting mental health conditions in movies, books, etc. can be very harmful. I want to include mental illness in my stories more, but I haven't done enough research on it yet. Part of the reason I haven't continued writing some of my books is because the characters have mental illnesses, but without extensive research on exactly how their illness can affect a person, I don't want to write them yet.

Understandable, I'm having one of my main characters believe that all the strange things he is seeing is becuase of his Schizophrenia.
