I'm Angela and I'm a mother of six children and I've also been diagnosed with Multiple Personality Disorder about eight months ago. Since my diagnoses I've made great strides in my recovery. I have a very supportive family and a terrific Psychologist. Without being properly diagnosed I couldn't be getting better as fast as I am.

I grew up on a farm and I love the smell of fresh hay and straw being cut in the fields. I love to hike in the woods and be able to see different wild animals and different kinds of trees and birds. Without all of the different kinds of wonderful things in the wilds life would be very boring indeed. I also love children, I wouldn't have had six if I didn't. Children are a direct ticket into the future and everybody should cherish that. I will leave you with this thought just because somebody is different does that mean they aren't worthy of acceptance?

I have been integrated for about a week now and I have never been so happy in my whole life. I am starting to remember things about myself that I had long forgotten. My ...
