Dissociative Identity Disorder (D.I.D.)
Christian Index of Help
for Multiple Personality Disorder (M.P.D.)
(Sometimes called a fractured personality or fractured mind)
Free Resources for Hosts, Alters (Insiders or Parts),Counsellors and Friends of People with “Multiple Personalities”
Confused, lonely and scared are the most common feelings among people coming to terms with Dissociative Identity Disorder. If you have D.I.D., or wish to help or understand someone who does, the following free resources provide the comfort, answers and support you need.
Even if you do not have Dissociative Identity Disorder, many of these webpages will bless you, especially those quoting alters.
For a short, easily understood explanation of what D.I.D. really is, I urge you to read Dissociative Identity Disorder Explained. Even if you fully understand D.I.D., this page might help you better explain it to other people.
Ministering to alters has been one of the most beautiful spiritual experiences I have ever been privileged to have. People with Dissociative Identity Disorder have known trauma and heartache like few people have, and yet it is typical of God that these are the very people he grants spiritual revelation and such an exceptionally deep, highly personal relationship with him that leave most other Christians in awe. Jesus’ relationship with alters (also known as insiders or parts) highlights his humility, gentleness, tenderness and patience to the most astounding degree. Nevertheless, I very much understand if the very mention of God freaks you out. In fact, this is norm for at some parts of people with Dissociative Identity Disorder.
This short page might ease your concerns a little:
I’ve been privileged to have had large numbers of people with Dissociative Identity Disorder share their hearts and seek my help. Over and over I have seen that what I share in the links below really works and I give Jesus all the honor because I believe it is he who has dropped into my heart most of the understanding I have gained. I beg you, however, not to limit your healing by neglecting to continually look to Jesus to give you his personal guidance and insight. Jesus alone – and most certainly not my writings – is the source of all knowledge , wisdom and power. And he alone is available every moment of every day of every year. And whereas, despite doing our utmost, the best of us fail at times, only the real Jesus is the absolutely perfect friend and counselor. No one can equal him when it comes to being utterly approachable and safe and flawlessly kind, gentle, understanding, patient and dependable.
Christ is divinely anointed to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release prisoners from darkness (Isaiah 61:1), for “The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. . . . He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds” (Psalms 34:18; 147:3). He should be our focus but if you particularly want to know more about me, see About the Author.
How to Use these Resources
Emergency Help is a very different resource to the rest of the webpages. It acts as a huge index to all the webpages about D.I.D. as well as giving quick answers. If you are desperate for an immediate answer to a specific question, see Emergency Help. (You should, in any case, be aware of this webpage because it includes links to help not given in the webpages listed below, and also because the need for an immediate answer is sure to arise sometime.)
To understand D.I.D. and learn how to heal from it, however, it is important to read all of the rest of the pages listed below.
Emergency Help is more like an encyclopaedia – a reference book not specifically intended to be read from start to finish, with valuable but not exhaustive information on a huge range of issues. In contrast, the rest of the webpages are best read from start to finish and will give you the deeper understanding of D.I.D. needed to heal.
