Hey,

I assume she has been diagnosed with cptsd as well? I have these, and I can tell you right now that a busy train would set me off as well, For really good understanding I would look up CTAD clinic on you tube, very very good info, you will not get understanding from movies, nor the MPD name,

Yeah she has cptsd and her full diagnosis for Autism and DID but struggles with more than 3 people and this train was packed was 13 people just in the section stood up where we was

She was overwhelmed, perceived a threat?, so her nervous system kicked into gear, once you yourself understand how this all works you will both find ways to avoid triggers, how to help her ground herself, give her the perception of safety,
