This book saved my mind and my life,
By A Customer
This review is from: Uncovering the Mystery of Mpd: Its Shocking Origins Its Surprising Cure (Paperback)
I am still thankful for being led to this book in a time when I could not make sense of anything going on in my life. It gave me the tools to recognize what I had been experiencing, that I was *not* crazy, that I could understand what was happening, and heal. It presents surprising little-known information in a straightforward way, challenging us to consider, open our eyes, and accept the reality of extreme abuse and its consequences which is so often hidden and denied in our society.I own this book and lend it out frequently to others when I try to explain my condition, or when I meet others facing the same challenges (though we tend to hide it, there are many more of us than most people think). This book dispells many of the myths surrounding this confusing disorder that is so badly repressented in the media, and offers great hope. Though this is not a disorder that anyone would chose to have, this book helps those with MPD/DID to see the strengths and skills they have within, while offering great hope for change and recovery. I only wish I had found it sooner -- it would have saved me a lot of pain, depression, and confusion. I would also highly recommend "The Truth About False Memory Syndrome" by the same author, for a more in-depth look at scientific understanding of repression, dissociation, and the way memory works. Together, these books literally saved my life when I thought there was no hope, and have put me on a empowered journey to healing, and wholeness.

Mapping alters,
By A Customer
This review is from: Uncovering the Mystery of Mpd: Its Shocking Origins Its Surprising Cure (Paperback)
As a writer, accurate research material is essential. Upon researching Multiple Personality Disorder, now called DID(Dissociative Identity Disorder), I came across this book, and read it cover to cover. It was clear, concise, intriguing. Friesen clearly describes the concepts of what he notes as level 1 and level 2 alters, and the process of integration, and the fact that this disorder is not a disease, but an expression of the power of the mind as it raises its defenses to protect itself from the effects of mental trauma at a young age.

Dr Friesen cares about people!,
By R.J. (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Uncovering the Mystery of Mpd: Its Shocking Origins Its Surprising Cure (Paperback)
Dr Friesen is a man who truly cares about people. Unlike others in this field, he knows the truth about the spiritual battle that goes on in our minds. This was very educational for me as an arm chair psychologist and observer of humanity. I think that more people have MPD, or DID (dissociate identity disorder) than any of us realize. I recommend Friesen's other books, "The Life Model" and "Survivors" as well as "The Battlefield of the Mind" by Joyce Meyer.
