Description
Split A Life Shared: Living with Multiple Personality Disorder Maggie Walters' story is one of unimaginable abuse and survival. As a child, she was forced to split into multiple identities to cope with the trauma inflicted upon her. Years later, as an adult, she struggles to manage the unpredictable temper and socially difficult behaviour that still haunt her. Diagnosed with Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD), now known as Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), Maggie begins to understand the true nature of her condition. It was not her who survived the abuse, but rather a series of alternate identities created by her mind to cope with the trauma. This book is a powerful account of managing this condition, understanding and accepting her past, and building a life from the ashes of her broken childhood. With raw honesty and vulnerability, Maggie shares her story of survival, self-acceptance, and triumph over adversity.
