Lists with This Book. Mar 11, Elisa rated it really liked it Shelves: I came across this book when I was looking into the state of dissociation. Although I don't have Dissociative Identity Disorder myself or know anyone with it , I found it very useful to understand the concept of dissociation and how it's present in everybody to varying degrees. Feb 01, Sandy rated it it was amazing. Thorough, accurate and compassionate I've given copies of this book to my clients with DID and they have found it helpful; particularly the resources and practical healing strategies.

Anyone interested in psychiatry, psychology, mental illness, personality disorders, etc. I have needed to find resources to research this topic, and I count this as the top resource I have found. It's written for the layman, laying all of the information out step-by-step. The explanations are easily understood by the average person, and the reading level is also geared to the average reader.

The book makes clear that this Disorder originates in the psychological and pathological realms of coping with severe, prolonged trauma, abuse, and fear. It describes exactly what this Disorder I have needed to find resources to research this topic, and I count this as the top resource I have found. It describes exactly what this Disorder is, formerly called multiple personality disorder, how the "altars" or differing personalities may form, be like, or interact or not , choices of therapists and therapy, learning healthy coping skills, integrating the personalities, and much more.

It is a wonderful resource and guide for those who suffer from the disorder, their families and friends, and their therapists. Many therapists are not trained in treating this illness. It's an empowering message for the DID sufferer of regaining the ability to trust, moving out of therapy into stabilization, and living a life of hope and happiness. It's been a great source of information as part of my research, and, as it is meant to do, it has given me a higher awareness of the suffering of these DID individuals and compassion for them as they learn to live with the disorder in a healthy manner.

Jul 07, Emma rated it liked it. This book is definitely more for older parts. It's very textbook-ish but has LOTS of information. We liked the self-care notecard book idea and some of the suggestions about internal communication and the sharing letter template. Zero Belly Diet David Zinczenko.
