Being a caregiver for someone with DID: Dissociative Identity Disorder: Answers I didn't find online or in therapy

by Evette Leib

Overview

"This book, written by a caregiver and mother intimately involved in the life of a patient with DID, provides a unique perspective that is both heart-wrenching and enlightening. Dissociative Identity Disorder, formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder, remains one of the most enigmatic and misunderstood psychiatric conditions. The complexities inherent in the lives of those grappling with DID, as well as the dedicated caregivers who support them, are seldom explored in mainstream literature. In these pages, readers will find not only a poignant exploration of DID but also a narrative of hope, resilience, and the transformative power of love. The caregiver's perspective, as both a mother and a compassionate advocate, adds a layer of insight that is invaluable for both professionals and those seeking to comprehend the profound impact of DID on individuals and their families.
May this book be a guiding light for those navigating the labyrinthine landscape of Dissociative Identity Disorder, fostering empathy, understanding, and, ultimately, a more compassionate society that embraces the diversity of the human mind."
-Dr. Andrew Sorial, MD
