@Dziadek @actuallyautistic I also studied #psychosynthesis, about twenty years ago, and the #subpersonalities model was one of the highlights indeed. We learned lots of useful models and techniques to use with clients and ourselves, but there was never a mention of #autism (though we covered other disorders as contra indicators). Also never came up in years of therapy! 🤷‍♂️

BTW #Buddhism has a secret process like subpersonalities and it's effective in reaching states of consciousness: #BigMind

TITLE: DiD, Vestibular Balance Issues, Brainscans, and Neurology

I'm a mental health clinician looking for resources and research papers
on the intersection of #DiD ( #Dissociative Identity Disorder),
#vestibular anomalies, and #neurology .  I am familiar with most of the
counseling theory around DiD -- but what does it look like from a
#brainscan ( #CTscan #MRI ) point of view?  Do the #subpersonalities 
exhibit different brain activity when activated?

So say that a patient with DiD ( #MultiplePersonality ) was undergoing
treatment for vestibular balance disorders and switching some between
alters as the exercises were done.  Is anything known on what this
medically would look like in the brain?  How a neurologist would be
likely to view the behaviors witnessed?

Thanks,
