The DID and OSDD Handbook is a supportive, accessible guide to life with dissociative identity disorder (DID), other specified dissociative disorder (OSDD) and partial dissociative identity disorder (P-DID), based on author Ella Everett's experience living with DID.
Answering questions from 'What is it like to live with DID and OSDD?' to 'What does recovery look like?' and covering topics such as seeking diagnosis, practical coping skills, and navigating relationships as a person with DID and OSDD, this guide is designed to dip in and out of as needed. Throughout, Ella works to address the lack of awareness and understanding of DID and OSDD in society, and challenge the harmful stereotypes often associated with these conditions.
This essential handbook offers kindness, understanding, recognition and representation for everyone living with DID and OSDD, as well as mental health professionals, therapists and those who support them.
Congratulations to an important new addition to our bravely-growing field! This is a thoughtful up-to-date encyclopaedic handbook by an expert through lived experience who has thoroughly and respectfully researched and reflected on key issues. -- Valerie Sinason, PhD MInstPsychoanal FIPD, Founder and Patron, Clinic for Dissociative Studies
