If a friend or family member has DID, how can I help?

Having a loved one with DID can be confusing and overwhelming. You may not know how to respond to their different alters or behaviors. You can help by:

• Learning about DID and its symptoms.
• Offering to attend family counseling or support groups with your loved one.
• Staying calm and supportive when sudden behavior changes occur.
