In Spite of Myself

All of us have many parts, but in those people that have DID those parts are very, very fragmented. I do believe God saves the whole person once....however, with DID the parts are so separated that they take on a life of their own...and they don't all have access to the same knowledge.

The way I see it is that just like we have parts that we hold back from giving over to God...so do those with DID. However, we are connected to all our parts. We are aware of what those parts are and we consciously hold back. This is not so for those that have DID. Their parts do not all have the same sense of awareness and understanding. I believe that it is very important for each part to make a decision to give themselves to Jesus (so they can heal as a whole person).  I know this sounds very strange, but DID is not like schizophrenia. Medication does not help DID. People with DID do not hallucinate or hear voices telling them to wear tin foil on their heads or other such things.

DID comes about from someone (as a child usually) having experienced something so bad they come "apart at the seams". I believe that it can be likened to a rope that was once tightly woven together but has become unraveled due to harsh mistreatment. Think of it as a massive form of compartmentalization that takes place in order to retain one's sanity.
