Customer Reviews

A well written book about DID

I liked this book a lot. It was a different way of writing about this sensitive subject and I liked that. I really felt the pain and confusion felt by different personalities, as well as the genuine care shown by the doctor. And the self injury accounts were so descriptive it left no doubt this was 100% honest. I also really appreciated the fact the abuse wasn’t graphic in detail. With some books it can be difficult to read some of the abuse and they can be triggering for some people. This book did not go into the abuse at all, other than vague accounts.
