Acerca de este libro electrónico
DescriptionDissociative Identity Disorder (DID, formerly Multiple Personality Disorder or MPD) is the separation of self which sometimes occurs following extreme child abuse trauma. These selves are referred to as alters. Self harm often accompanies this disorder as a coping mechanism. This book is a collection of poetry written by alters the author created. Mickey, Soda, BJ, and Daniel, affectionately referred to as, "The Brothers," share the author's journey into wholeness. The Brothers were the most active and verbal of the alters. Their mantra, "The more silent I am, the more it is I have to say," gives light to the author's quiet shyness as a youth and young adult. They did have a lot to say, and it is voiced here in "Like Shattered Glass." About the AuthorColleen Lewis, developed Dissociative Identity Disorder at a very young age. She engaged in self-harm, mostly cutting, for 38 years. She had many alters, but recently integrated with them, thus becoming one. She refers to her DID system as "Brothers and Others." Her alters include both male and female personalities. Her alters helped her survive for nearly half a century. Through her writing, Colleen hopes to increase awareness and understanding of Dissociative Identity Disorder and self-harm and remove the stigma attached to them. Born in Rochester, New York, she now lives in Colorado in the United States.
