Victor provides us with the history of the horrific abuse he faced growing up and provides the scenario and basis for his multiple personality disorder and multiple, ‘characters,’ surfacing in his life.
I have included the order of documents to be read, as he sent them to me:
1. My essay entitled “IsHopeAStrategy-IDontKnowYouTellMe”-Rev1 – explains my experiences for the last 55 weeks
2. Email to my circle of care “A quick note” – perhaps a long one too – explains my experiences, the consequences and reflections
3. My essay entitled “IamSorry-thedoublesidedrazorblade”-Rev1 – explains my position of hearing “I am sorry” Please understand I know it is a form of empathy, yet after the continued fight with the Ontario Canada MHA system over the last 5 years… I have heard this statement too many times.
Below I have included links to his podcast interview and published essay about living with DID, as he sent them to me.
