My second husband called me “Tree.” I don’t remember why. But, nevertheless Monkey and Tree went together well. He’d take pictures with him standing next to trees, and send them to me for a joke.
On September 11th, 2025, while I was doing my makeup, it occurred to me why this symbol was so important to me. It’s because DID is a tree! The trunk is the original you—even your spirit—when you were a baby…. But then as you grew you began to forget Heaven—there’s one split—you realized that not everyone was here to help you—that’s another split. Then those splits go into more splits the more that trauma happens.
Is the furthest twig a tree? No…it’s part of the tree. Please, if you know someone who has DID, know that they are probably awkward because they are TRYING their damndest to act like the trunk, when they’re just a twig.
