FROM THE AUTHOR: "Asked why I wrote "Desire," I said it was a natural outgrowth of my experience that might generate an income. Possibly but not, however, the real reason I wrote it. The book was not a consequence but a driving force from soon after the beginning. In the beginning, I was told that nobody my age entered therapy. Overwhelmed by a driving compulsion to know what had happened, I entered therapy anyway. I had to find the answers. And I was overcome by a terrible despair; I looked back on all the years of my life and declared them wasted. With most of my life irretrievably gone, nothing could make up for the loss. Nothing. Gradually, over the next few months, I came to believe that perhaps, out of the waste and the ruin, I could salvage something of value; I could create something worthwhile. No psychiatrist, psychologist or therapist, even the most highly trained, can see inside another's mind. But, if I REALLY wanted the answers, I would have to look into mine. By documenting that process, I could contribute first-hand knowledge of the mind and of MPD. I could be my own research project. "Desire" was born then. Over time, my efforts to find the answers have resulted, almost as a by-product of the process, in changes that have made me different and my remaining years promising. And, concurrent with the process and an integral part of it, "Desire" became a reality. Inseparable, the book is both a cause and a result of my progress. For me, it became the value I had hoped for. Now, it is my hope that readers will also find something worthwhile, something of value in it." PUBLISHER'S COMMENT: This is a fascinating true story, so real that readers literally walk in her shoes. One reader said, "I identified with her from the first page!" We recommend it! Vicariously, readers experience a truly remarkable life. Survivors, of all genre, find support and comfort in it. And therapists find first-hand psychological insight.
