(Respectfully)Nah. She doesnt have Dissociative Identity Disorder. She is out of it because she chooses to live in her own self-delusion. Her behavior is textbook Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

I think you misunderstood my post. I don't think she has DID. DID Is dissociation to the extreme. Everyone dissociates from time to time (like while driving, not recalling the actual drive). Dissociation is present in other illnesses besides DID- such as Borderline, PTSD, Panic disorder, OCD.. You tune out and shut off (not create another identity as with DID) in order to get through whatever your stressor may be.
ITA with you though that Casey shows some massive narcissistic tendencies. I recognize some symptoms of pretty much every personality disorder there is in Casey but I seriously doubt she has each disorder she shows symptoms of. I think much of what is wrong with her are poor coping tools, learned behaviors.. crappy choices by a selfish, entitled 12 year old child who's rebelling against her mother using the life of a child she can only think of as a toy, a doll, something cute to play with and get attention from (because WTF is love to someone who chose to forget how to feel years ago?) in a (23?) year old woman's body and not actual disorders.
It's true, I don't think Casey is sick in the way everyone else here does-I think she is damaged. Beyond help? yeah probably. But I get how it happened and I don't only see bad in her.. I can look at her as she who she could have been had George grown b@lls years ago. Had her mother allowed her to grow into a person- I get what she meant when she told LE she was terrified of her mother finding out. But if she did this she should fry because I also know that she had a choice, she is of sound mind. If you read my posts you'll know I'm the last person who'd say she has DID, believe me!!
