Jamie (an alter) talks about our experience of functioning with flashbacks. We live our life with Dissociative Identity Disorder, and PTSD is partinparcel. However, we want to show that we can still function (and do!) despite our diagnosis and the effects it can give us. This is our story, and the effects of PTSD and/or DID may affect sufferers in different ways.
