The 25th Anniversary Edition features a powerful new afterword by the author about his journey since that time, illuminating remarkable progress in the treatment of a rare mental illness."What the hell is happening to me? I feel possessed. I'm talking gibberish in the mirror and somebody else's voice is coming out of my mouth."Cameron West was in his thirties, a successful businessman, happily married, and the father of a young son when he spoke these words. The "voice" he heard belonged to Davy, the first of twenty-four alter personalities to emerge over a period of several months as West began to recall memories of horrific abuse he'd repressed since childhood. With distinct characteristics, mannerisms, and memories, all twenty-four were created by West to protect his psyche from the trauma of repeated sexual abuse at the hands of family members.In addition to a spellbinding story, West provides rare and unprecedented insight into the fascinating condition known as Dissociative Identity Disorder, the working of the mind of a multiple, and his alters' coexistence with one another and with the world "outside." Heart-wrenching, humorous, and ultimately hopeful, First Person Plural is a story that will make you stand in awe of the power of the mind to protect itself and cheer for West as he struggles to gain control of his life.
