I still remember the day the Trudy Chase show first aired. I was in high school. I think I was around 15 years old, and it stopped me in my tracks. I stood in front of the television crying, unable to even walk to the couch. I intuitively knew that I had been disassociating, but It wasn’t until many, many years later that I was able to identify my own splits. Thank you, Oprah. You have been a consistent source of Life affirming work. And you have taken our hands and helped guide us through the wilderness. Other guests like Brené Brown, Eckhart Tolle, Reverend Michael, and so many more, have helped shed light into dark corners of consciousness. Together we expand. Together we rise. Forever grateful.

I am not sure if her mother is Kim. From what l understand Kim disappeared when she was young and left her body to the other personalities. Her mother being Patricia, the main, or Bonny, the mother figure, is more possible.

[@AubreyFaye]

Kim justs seems to be the name of the body or system rather than an alter. Before Kim got the chance to form her own personality, the trauma broke the mind into different alters to protect itself.

[@thisbeem2714]

She had another alter that did most of the parenting.

[@Gizmo30]

My thought exactly 😢😢

[@thecognitivedissonant3606]

When extreme abuse occurs before a child forms a core personality, there is not a host or core to "integrate" all back into one unified whole, and that's perfectly okay. These are incredibly smart, creative, strong people, who are spiritually gifted. And that's exactly why the luciferian brotherhood targets and uses them in such ways, to access their gifts.

[@MissSarcasticBunny]

What's fascinating about Kim is the fact that each personality has their own artistic style and way of portraying themselves. Even her handwriting changes according to which personality is dominant at the time. Her paintings are very telling about the trauma she went through. They very much hint at ritual abuse of some sort with many different people involved which is disturbing to say the least. There doesn't seem to be much detail mentioned about her parents and childhood experiences - I've wondered a lot about that ever since I first saw Kim on the Oprah Show back when it first aired.

We have to do better in punishing people who cause so much mental trauma to a person to the point they break into so many pieces. It is no less an offense than murder.

[@slaphappybullet]

Indeed it lasts generations. My mom was and is unstable, and substance abuse has been a theme in her life. She was not mentally or emotionally present for me and my sisters, my dad worked a lot, and unfortunately one of my sisters sought that affection through people who introduced her to drugs that eventually killed her. As for me, it lingers in keeping an emotional distance from people. My mom viewed everything as a threat, and sometimes that meant us as kids. From a very young age I learned how damaging it could be to feel a connection to a person who would not acknowledge it. The sexual abuse she suffered as a kid has permeated decades in so many ways. And because of that, I personally feel guilty for not being able to have a relationship with her, but I also know I can’t be the kid anymore wishing for her love. All that’s left is just sorrow for me and for her. And like you said, it’s not something she could ever understand even though she was the one who initially suffered.

[@wonkydonkey8349]

@@slaphappybullet I am sorry to hear that darling. Can you trace trauma back further? To your grandmother for example? I actually trace it to the institution of marriage in my family and the 'importance' of staying married regardless of how abusive the other partner may be. At the end of the day my grandmother chose marriage and society over the wellbeing of her daughter (and herself) and held onto these unhealthy notions of what being a woman is: a martyr etc. just to pass it on to all of us. My family and extended family perpetuates the cycle over and over, with pain showing itself in detachment and the inability to communicate feelings, love or upset. My mum would not even touch me growing up. I know it's not her fault. But I am still damaged by it.

My dad had multiple personalities. He was and amazing artist as well and drew his personalities. He called them James Gang. Jamsey was a little boy full of curiosity and scared sometimes. Would find Jamsey eating dog food on the floor or rolling around the floor sometimes. He was so sweet and gentle. Fast Forward was another one. Fast forward never sat still. Always busy getting things done in a hurried way. Had to always remind fast forward that my dad needed to eat and it was time for fast forward to let my dad come out to eat. There was a teenager boy who was super fun when I was a teen. We liked to go for drives and listen to rock music. We seemed to always get into use together. Another one of his personalities was an old man and another an older woman who liked being pretty and was nurturing. One of my dad’s personalities didn’t like me very much. Told me I was a goody tissues. Even as my dad was dying from COPD the personalities made themselves present. I feel blessed to have been raised by so many souls inside my dads head.

[@gardensofthegods]

Mellaniy , were you raised by your father alone or was your mother or someone else also involved ? With all those different personalities was your dad still able to support himself financially , or not ? The fact that you enjoyed his different personalities and that you have so many good memories does not sound like the typical story of dealing with a person with multiple personalities ; that's why I think you should , if you haven't already , write a very detailed book or novel about this . It definitely needs to be made into a movie or a miniseries ... and a good solid book about it would really help get that idea out there . I really hope you take this seriously because it just really seems the story needs to be told and it would be a wonderful way to pay tribute to your father . I'm confused about the boy who would sometimes eat dog food . Do you know who it was that abused him so much that he probably was forced to eat dog food instead of regular meals ? Would the personalities last long ... like the one that went with you on the long drives ... what would happen if let's say the scared little boy in him returned would you have to stop the drive and return home for him to feel safe ? Do you see what I'm saying ? Can you describe some more for us ? For example when was the first time you realized you were seeing a totally different personality in him ? How young were you ? Can you tell us more about the one that didn't like you too much ? I know I'm asking you all these questions because I just think what you told us is such an incredible story ... if this is told the right way I believe it would be a big hit , very memorable .

I think you will be able to bring that child back if you can meet a real true Shaman from the Amazon or a Tibetan Buddhist Lama because they are about the only people out there who really know how to do what's called SOUL RETRIEVAL ... and only some of the lamas know how to do that . They believe that anytime we are traumatized that whoever you were and whatever age you were at that point in time sort of breaks off and is in a way lost out in space somehow . They know how to bring back to you the parts of you that have been sort of missing so that you are a whole integrated person again . Also I don't know if you meditate but I do feel meditation can help because it gives us control over our thoughts rather than our thoughts controlling us and helps to restore one's inner peace and balance .

It's easy for me and Dylan to talk but we have a hard time to talk to Micheal. We use a notebook to talk to him and explain what he is part of.

We dated while living in different cities for three months, and while I felt something was a bit odd, I had never experienced DID and didn't realize that I was speaking to different people. By the time I did understand I was already in love. We were together for 2 years. As a psych major I was fascinated and wanted to "help" him. I identified 6 distinct personalities, but a psychiatrist eventually identified 15. He was the love of my life but I eventually left after one of the personalities threatened me with a knife to "protect" him. The person promised that I would die at some point. He had been brutally and repeatedly raped as a 7-year-old boy and his family blamed him. Leaving him was the hardest thing I have ever done.

I have a friend who experienced much the same type of abuse that Truddi experienced from the same age, only she was sold to "the highest bidder" for sexual favors as well. She, too, coped by splitting into different personalities. What these women went through is horrifying.

It is definitely girls who are the victims of child sexual abuse and severe trauma. That’s why women have such a high incidence of DID.

She actually went to court against her abusive father and with the help of all her personalities was able to win because he actually caved in during court and decided to plead guilty . It's an extraordinary story but I didn't watch all of it because it was just too much and I didn't watch this either I just came here to comment for people who might want to see about the woman with the 2500 personalities .

This is so tragic and beautiful at the same time. I'm glad her daughter seems to be well-adjusted. She's lucky in some ways to have many friends in her mother. But, it would probably be better to have a real and present mother.

[@brooklynsizemore2372]

Well, Aimee is (i think) 23 now and has a law degree! And while it probably would be better to have a mother who doesn't have DID, Kim is who she had been given and I think she is really lucky to have such a caring mother.

[@cadavher]

The photo at 23:29.... has me in tears. So does the ones after that. Hearing about it is one thing, seeing a visual of it really drives it home. I'll never understand how adults can do sick things to kids, I understand their brains are wired wrong and it's been medically shown, but I can't get past the knowing it's wrong and still doing it. I think everyone should be screened, and if they have that bad brain wiring, they should be sent to a isolated place away from children. Somewhere they can never ever have access to them!! Even the knowledge that SA preds and flashers get let out of prison just to be put back into populations where sure, they can't be around schools and such, they still could go near kids, it's wrong!! The damage these people do is incomprehensible. Here I am blabbering away, but I just get so upset over this issue. I feel like since they can for the most part identify people who see kids in a devious manner, they should be easily able to keep them away!! If anything even screening adults who want to adopt children should be bare minimum, the amount of people who foster and adopt for easy targets and access and get away with it is just, ugh. It's even worse knowing I can't do anything to help or change things.

[@MithrilMagic]

I completely agree. I did social work for 15 years. I saw HORRIBLE things. It’s in every corner of the world and sadly, it is in some very affluent households. SA, physical, mental, emotional abuse and neglect does not discriminate. I am infertile and my husband and I plan to foster to adopt. We are required to have multiple home visits, general first aid/cpr training, multiple parenting classes, financial and background screenings and we must write essays on why we want to be parents and have personal and professional references. We have no problem doing any of this. Unfortunately, most of the abuse cases I saw over my years of experience were children being abused by their blood family members (many were parents, grandparents and siblings) and also friends of family members. The absolute WORSE part of my job was after removing a child or children from an abusive environment and settling them in a new, safe situation, the biological mother (if not charged and sentenced to time in prison) would end up having more children, who would also go on to be abused. I believe, if you have a child in the system, or have had a child in the system and have an open case, you should be required to go through the same parenting classes and process as adoptive parents must go through AND you must take a competency exam. Children are the most precious things in the world. Being a parent is a privilege not a right. And if everyone suffered with infertility the way I have, including 7 miscarriages, they would know that. They must be protected.

[@gardensofthegods]

@@MithrilMagic CL there are a lot of women who were able to CONCEIVE after trying an inexpensive powder from a plant that has been used in and around India for thousands of years literally . Its called SHATAVARI ( wild asparagus root ) and a number of women were able to have a baby after using it and this was after they had tried fertility clinics which didn't work and gave up . It's very inexpensive ; you can buy it at most Indian grocers ... I think I paid about $5 ... of course if you get it online you might pay more and there's a number of videos here about it . I read that the best quality is more of a yellowish color but I haven't only seen it in a dark White . Over time it slowly reverses or prevents aging by working on the deepest layers of the skin and slowly working its way outward . It works by PURIFYING the various fluids in the body including the REPRODUCTIVE system . You're supposed to take it with a high-quality fat like milk and also some ghee added to it . And I read you're also supposed to take it with ashwagandha which is also very good for you and is an adaptogen that helps get rid of depression and negativity , and helps you sleep better at night . You will see people who have not done their research give wrong information about it , for example women saying it increases the estrogen (which it does not ) and you will also see men saying ashwagandha increases the testosterone ( which it does not ) What these to do is they BALANCE the HORMONES . You might want to look into this and give it a try . You could end up conceiving a child ... please look at the various videos .

[@TicaChica61]

Wow, as interesting as this is it's also so tragic. I'm so blessed that I was able to get through my abuse without this type of thing happening to me. It's true, that if you've been abused it's important to talk and talk and talk to whoever will listen. People will tell you to stop talking about it because it makes them uncomfortable, but it's healing for the abused. For so many years I was so angry at everyone around me that they didn't understand me or believe me. I met Jesus one day and gave my life to Him and He helped me get rid of the anger and start the forgiveness journey. I was finally FREE! Those memories, even the little ones stick like glue. I've tried to write my story a few times, but I get disgusted and can't read it back so I let it go and give it to God so that I can continue my healing. Like these women, I was abused since I was a baby. Until I was able to stand up to my dad and say "no more! The trauma continued until he died when I knew he couldn't hurt another child. I taught my kids at a young age to speak out if anyone tried to touch their bodies. That is what is lacking in this world, people protect the abuser (for whatever reason) instead of protecting the children.

[@covetsuns]

To anyone who wishes to have DID, here is why you SHOULDN'T want to have DID. When we are children, we have yet to develop a fully integrated identity. We are all born with several "ego states" so when severe or repeated trauma happens before the ages 6-9 (when the child's mind starts to fully develop), with no support given to cope with the trauma, these ego states fail to merge into one distinct identity, thus creating amnesia barriers in between so that the "host" can go on living without the memory of the trauma. The trauma they went through as a child before the ages 6-9 was so traumatic to the point the mind goes "nope, I can't do this, I cannot cope, I cannot survive, I think I'm gonna die" and thus splits into several alternate state of consciousness. This is how people with DID survive. This is our coping mechanism. So, please, I urge you, not to feel envious of people who had to experience horrendous things happening to them as a CHILD. It's not always a party, it's not something to romanticise having.
