hello,
I was recently diagnosed with dissociation, I wake up in unusual places and have no control over when it happens I occasionally breakdown in tears and for no reason and I have terrible nightmares not really understanding them.
I also have been in a relationship with a guy for a year and a half but don't know if I should tell him...
should I tell him or not?
@happytoknow367,
I kind of think you should, just in case you have one of these episodes that happens to involve him. The poor guy might be scared to death.
Relationshipwise (if that's a word), well, he might put distance between the two of you. That's a sad but necessary possibility.
If you tell him, you will need to educate him about DID.
I am sure your therapist has contacts for family members, too.
Good luck.
