1.0 out of 5 stars Trauma Up The Wazzoo!
Ugh. I felt like I was traumatized by reading this book. Prism goes into heavy abuse details at the beginning, nearly fifty pages of it, which leave the reader thinking, "Yeah, yeah, I get it, but when is the story going to start?" It's all background for the first bit, and as terrible as it must have been to experience these things, the reality of it is...

5.0 out of 5 stars Still our favorite book., November 30, 1999
This review is from: Prism : Andrea's World (Paperback)
This is the story of Andrea Biaggi, who developed multiple personalities as a result of the father's sexual abuse. From the helpful Sister Jeanie to the scared Andrea-Ellen; the angry Nothing and the super-powered Super Andrea; the self-punishing Joseph and the sexual Bridget, all send her in a confused state in which she is in and out of mental hospitals and is contiually misdiagnosed. Finally, she meets Dr. Eugene Bliss, who has treated MPD and knows the true cause of her suffering. This book deals with incest as a cause of MPD, and self-injury. This book is helpful, because I am diagnosed with MPD and have found this book to be the best out there.

1.0 out of 5 stars Trauma Up The Wazzoo!, August 21, 2001
This review is from: Prism: Andrea's World (Hardcover)
Ugh. I felt like I was traumatized by reading this book. Prism goes into heavy abuse details at the beginning, nearly fifty pages of it, which leave the reader thinking, "Yeah, yeah, I get it, but when is the story going to start?" It's all background for the first bit, and as terrible as it must have been to experience these things, the reality of it is watered down by the number of incidences that are presented one after another. After a while, you just don't care. Although multiple myself, I just could NOT get through this one.
