Book Synopsis

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, 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.

Review Quotes

As a human and professional psychologist living with DID, my own system of PARTs have waited years for a book like this one. Ella has provided us with a simple to understand guide. The information shared with us is delivered in a clear, kind, and compassionate way that few others can offer us as a population of people living with DID.--From the foreword by Dr. Adrian A. Fletcher/BlenDID System, multilayered human and psychologist

As someone that was harmed by mental health professionals' misunderstanding and stigma of DID, I feel this book should be mandatory for them. I encourage everyone with DID to have this book by their side. I have felt so validated, and the guidance has provided me with comfort and reassurance.--Claudia, person with DID

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

This clear, empathetic and accessible work, written with an open mind by someone with lived experience, offers a thorough look at the many ways DID and OSDD are understood and managed. With practical tools for healing and support, it's a valuable resource for people with DID/OSDD, loved ones, professionals and the wider public.--Anne Lagemaat, expert by experience, founder of DIS is me, an online initiative in the Netherlands about DID/OSDD
