Many people with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) have written their stories. And done a fine job. I admire and respect my fellow suffers of this disorder who have risked putting themselves "out there" as they have done. So, why read my story, just another among so many? I have attempted to answer two questions that I have been often asked but which I have not read about. One is, How does it happen? What is the actual process that took place? I explain the extremes that a child has to suffer in order to split and then describe the process of splitting. The second question is, What is it like to live as a DID? I describe on detail what day to day living is like and how DID became dysfunctional for me as an adult. So, this is a unique view of DID that illustrates DID in a different, but all too real, light.
