Symptoms of DID can vary from person to person, but some of the most common symptoms include:

- _Feelings of detachment from oneself or one's surroundings_

- _Difficulty remembering events or personal information_

- _Significant gaps in memory_

- _Changes in speech patterns or handwriting_

- _Changes in personality or behavior_

- _Episodes of amnesia_

- _Night terrors_

- _Suicidal thoughts or behaviors_

If you are concerned that your child may have DID, it is important to seek professional help from a mental health professional.
