I had never heard of Jean Small Brinson until I picked up this book at the UNL bookstore. I read it in one day! If you or anyone you know has ever had to deal with an abusive family member, this is a must read. Brinson tells of her abusive father, her escapes with her mother, how she had to beat her mother in order to save her, and she also tells of her development of MPD. This book made me angry, it made me hurt, it made me cry, but most importantly it made me remember my own experiences. It let me know that I was not the only person out there who had experienced pain, hatred, and abuse of all kinds. Again, this is a must read.

I ordered this book to read for my abnormal psychology class. I picked it because I wanted to learn more about Multiple Personality Disorder. The book was sad and some points and made me want to cry. It was very imformative on the disease and it helped me to understand it a little better. Overall the book was really good and I would recommend it to other to read.
