I met a woman a couple years ago with DID and she showed me her journal with all the different handwritings, and she had sketches of the personalities. I am so glad that someone had the strength and the courage to allow their story to become a book, because it offered a whole level of insight into what she was struggling with. I still am so impressed with you and how amazing you are. Your story made me cry, and knowing that you are not losing time anymore is a miracle and is so wonderful.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you again for letting the world know you story, its one more step to ending the horrible stigma of mental illness.<\/p>\n<p>Amy<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Dear Amy,<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your kind compliment! When making the decision to share my story, Dr. Baer and I both hoped to reach all those who have suffered, or knew of someone who had suffered, with multiplicity. I&#8217;m glad my story helped you understand the woman you met a few years ago. Hearing stories such as yours touches me. I agree, <em>Switching Time<\/em> has brought a whole new level of insight to a once incomprehensible illness. Sharing brings knowledge and knowledge brings wisdom. I continue to learn something new about myself each day.<\/p>\n<p>I truly appreciate your thoughts and though my story made you cry, please know that I&#8217;m alive and well, thanks to Dr. Baer and my alters, who protected me my entire life.<\/p>\n<p>Wishing you all my best!<\/p>\n<p>Karen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comment by Amy on 02 Oct 2011 at 7:39 pm Hi Karen!
