I've been keeping up on this thread with great interest.

I was diagnosed with multiple personalities many years ago. Through therapy and lots of hard work I'm to a point that I don't switch anymore - but sometimes I wish I still could.

I was born under the sign of Leo with Pisces rising -- fire and water signs. I flame up like fire and then put myself out. At least that's how I've always "explained" , at least up until lately, my bi-polar like symtoms.

If I found myself in a situation I couldnt deal with -- or what I'm now beginning to believe were panic attacks -- I would simply "switch" to the personality that could deal with it. But since I don't do that anymore - I sometimes find myself in a spin.

What I thought were the mind games of my (bored) child personality -- I now wonder if it's not a bit of OCD.

Over the years I have found my own way to survive, but you ladies have given me some very good information and perhaps it's time to go on the search for a doctor that might finally be able to give me that "little magic pill"

I admire each and everyone of you !!
