Hi Karen,

it’s that time again! Are you going to be giving your input on the USoT show again. I found you an asset to the show. Hope they are paying you for your time. My interest peaked after reading about you. You could advise them.

Lots of love to you…beautiful spirit.

Pat

Dear Pat,

Thank you for believing my comments on USoT to be an asset. Of course, I am not being paid to comment on the United States of Tara message board, just as I am not being paid to answer questions here on my blog. I do so to help bring awareness and knowledge to the illness I once suffered from, multiplicity. I believe we all can help each other by sharing. Though it would be nice to be paid, my first desire is to encourage hope through sharing my own personal journey to healing.

It’s nice to hear that your interest in multiplicity peaked after reading about me. I’ll take that as a compliment. If asked, I would love to help with the show or with therapists and doctors who wish to understand how I managed to survive a dissociative disorder. I believe each multiple is unique and while their experiences differ, all multiples use alters as a coping mechanism to survive while they suffer from trauma. Multiplicity follows horrific abuse.

Thank you for your compliments, and for sending love.

Karen
