Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the product of a Campaign Day organised by the Paracelsus Trust to raise awareness of Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). The Campaign Day brought people together, enabling individuals to tell their story, and allowed all of those involved to recognise the progress that has been made in recognition of the condition, which has long been either ignored or misunderstood, and the possibilities for the future. As this was a profoundly moving experience, it was decided to put the presentations into a book, which recounts some painful personal experiences and some ideas for ways forward, always recognising the pain of the condition and the abuse that precedes it. The Paracelsus Trust is a Charity which exists to support people with DID who are in receipt of services from the Clinic for Dissociative Studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our House tells the story of a child who has experienced something that children should never have to experience. It introduces the reader to the people who arrived to help them cope with the bad things, in the house that they all share. Accompanied by beautiful and gentle illustrations, the story takes a non-threatening approach to demystify dissociative identity disorder, using the metaphor of a house to explain what it is and how it develops. Our House can be read by individuals, or used as a treatment tool to stimulate discussion, and is suitable for all ages. It includes additional guidance which explains the metaphor in depth, as well as advice regarding dissociative disorders and signposts to further help for both individuals and professionals. Bringing clarity to a complex issue, this is an invaluable resource for survivors of trauma and for those who support them, counsellors, psychologists, social care workers and other professionals, as well as family and friends. An accompanying guidebook is also available, offering further information, resources and activities, and page-by-page insights into illustrations from the picture book. Both books can be purchased as a set.
Book Synopsis The Sum of My Parts by : Olga Trujillo
Download or read book The Sum of My Parts written by Olga Trujillo and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the first day of kindergarten, Olga Trujillo had already survived years of abuse and violent rape at the hands of her tyrannical father. Over the next ten years, she would develop the ability to numb herself to the constant abuse by splitting into distinct mental “parts.” Dissociative identity disorder (DID) had begun to take hold, protecting Olga’s mind from the tragic realities of her childhood. In The Sum of My Parts, Olga reveals her life story for the first time, chronicling her heroic journey from survivor to advocate and her remarkable recovery from DID. Formerly known as multiple personality disorder, DID is defined by the presence of two or more identities. In this riveting story, Olga struggles to unearth memories from her childhood, and parallel identities—Olga at five years old, Olga at thirteen—come forth and demand to be healed. This brave, unforgettable memoir charts the author’s triumph over the most devastating conditions and will inspire anyone whose life has been affected by trauma.

Book Synopsis Our Collective Life by : J. D. Kennedy
Download or read book Our Collective Life written by J. D. Kennedy and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-03 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Collective Life is a non-fiction memoir of a person diagnosed with DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder). Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder) is a condition in which two or more distinct identities, or personality states, are present in the one body. In our case we are the Collective, a group of 19 individuals (at the time of writing) sharing a body and trying to navigate our way through this one life. We each have unique personality traits and characteristics as well as differing thoughts, opinions and often even memories.To an outsider or a layperson, this book may sound like a work of fiction. However as crazy as it may sound, this is our life. The book is written primarily surrounding a period when Jo (the one born into the body) was struggling with severe depression, suicidal tendencies and guilt as well as the strong denial that is often characteristic of those with DID. Through the pages, the reader will understand more of the therapeutic process we all continue to undertake, as well as follow our journey as we learn more about Jo and ourselves.NB. It is widely accepted that DID invariably arises due to severe abuse/neglect in the early childhood. Whilst there is mention of episodes of abuse/trauma, Our Collective Life does NOT go into graphic detail about these incidents. There is however, swearing/cussing and graphic details of self-injury.
