  I met Paula today. She's working at a respite center helping trauma survivors like myself. The fact that she's still 10 years after this documentary devoting all her time to help survivors means so much.

  This just breaks my heart. This is what abuse does to a child's mind

  My mother had (DID) back then it was called MPD (Multiple personality disorder) her childhood was filled with massive physical and sexual abuse. All her personalities liked me for the most part. My friends thought it was so cool to have a mom that would play with us. I spent my childhood hiding this from everyone. I could always bring my mom back. Her alters would listen to me for the most part. She was a single mom of 3 kids at a young age. She was successful and was college educated and owned a home for us kids. She was a survivor. She could at times control it as life calmed down. She would get extremely tired when she switched alot. All her alters were kind. There was only 1 that was mean and agressive. She was like a tough woman with an accent. I only saw her once and that situation traumatized me. I had the most amazing wonderful mama. Sadly she died of cancer 5 years ago. We were best friends and close as ever. I feel lost in this world without my amazing mama. I hate that i was ashamed of her because of this growing up. But it was just fear people wouldnt understand. I still dont speak of her disorder.

  The human body is one mysterious crazy thing. And probably the most craziest part of it is you're brain

  &quot;It&apos;s not literally real, but it&apos;s very psychologically real.&quot;<br>That&apos;s the best description of this disorder that I&apos;ve heard. &nbsp;It doesn&apos;t matter if it&apos;s &quot;real&quot; or not, literally. &nbsp;It&apos;s real to the person and affecting them negatively, so that&apos;s what needs help.

  The little girl saying “I don’t want to be hurt no more” broke my heart. This must be incredibly hard to deal with. Hearing about the doctor who told her she was faking for attention really made me angry, first of all that’s not how a medical professional should talk to a patient who is in distress whether he thinks it’s real or not, and the reason she ended up at the hospital in the first place was because she was clearly suffering, which she hardly would if she wanted to be this way/was in control of it. She (they?) is very brave to speak openly about this misunderstood condition. I wish her (them?) all the best.

  Did they really say &quot;omg this disorder is so misunderstood, we gotta change that!&quot; then put scary music over this woman speaking about her disorder?

  i like how when she says “i knew i was different.” and the dr says “you knew Something was different.” its so small but its nice to be reassured that you arent different you arent weird. its nice. good on him.
