\nDear K,<\/p>\n

I chose Hershel Walkers book over yours, while looking for a good book to read on DID. I was really disappointed in Hershels book that I went back, to return it, couldn\u2019t, and bought Switching Time anyway. I felt Herschel wasn\u2019t a DID suffer. I wanted truth about this illness. But, your story, now this is a story to remember! I would like to tell all readers to buy Switching Time for a true story and not waste their time on other books of nonsense.<\/p>\n

Thanks,
\nJ<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dear J,<\/p>\n

Thank you for buying our book and believing in our true story. Dr. Baer and I worked very hard to share this truth.<\/p>\n

I read Herschel Walker\u2019s book, too, and felt it was more of a football story. But who am I to judge? It’s Herschel\u2019s story and he wrote about what he experienced during his childhood. I wrote what I had experienced in mine. I can’t say he wasn’t a multiple, but in order to be a multiple, you have to have dissociative episodes. It\u2019s a dissociative disorder, right? I don\u2019t think he described that kind of experience. I never met Herschel but I would be interested in sitting down with him and sharing our experiences. It’s obvious Herschel felt hurt. I developed multiplicity from horrific abuse, but I didn’t see any of that as I read Herschel’s book. But I suppose no two cases are alike. We both felt hurt and both chose to write about it in order to help others. I wish Herschel well.<\/p>\n

All my best,<\/p>\n
