First Person Plural

I've got twenty four personalities. I call them my guys even though some of them are females, and we all live together in this body. We try to communicate with each other, try to get along and be concerned about each others problems, but sometimes it takes to much energy.First Person Plural is the true story of Cameron West's Shocking discovery, at the age of thirty eight, of the existance of 24 alter personalities within his own psyche and his subsequent diagnosis with Dissociative

Identity Disorder, formely called Multiple Personality Disorder.The trauma of sustained sexual abuse as a child prompted the emergence of Camerons alters, each with his or her distinct characteristics, mannerisms and memories: Dusty, a twelve year old girl trapped in a mans body; Switch, an angry 10 year old responsble for cutting Camerons arm on several occasions; and Per, a wise older man who can sometimes control other alter's behaviour. 'First Person Plural' is not only a detailed, humorous, and heartbreakingly honest account of living with DID; it is also the love story of a devoted family struggling to overcome incredible adversity. Not since Sybil has there been such a powerful book about this condition.
