Talking about your multiplicity

[MakersDozn]

We often compare the struggle of multiples to the struggles of the LGBT community. We think about how things were for LGBT people 40 years ago, compared to the immense progress they've made during the past few years.

As a multiple system, it gives us some hope, but with caution. The internet has provided an unprecedented venue for multiples during the past 20 years or so, but we are still misunderstood by mainstream society, and most of us are in hiding.

For us specifically, we generally don't talk about our multiplicity. Of course, our T and our pdoc know. We've told our immediate family because none of them were abusers. And we've also told three close friends, but we never talk about it. People are too caught up in their own lives.
