KIlayla ......A horrific story about trauma rooted disorder

from WV Uncommonplace : Uncommon Conversations · host Jr Sparrow

My name is Kilayla and I have DID, a trauma-rooted disorder most commonly known as Multiple Personality Disorder, an outdated term from the 1900's. I have been treated for multiple medical conditions over the years both physical and mental, even experiencing twelve sessions of Electroconvulsive Therapy at 18 years old. I am considered treatment resistant in regards to my depression and have had experiences of psychosis that caused great turmoil and further traumatization. I am a suicide attempt survivor and have struggled with severe self harm for over a decade. Despite all this, I have written four books by the age of twenty four. The first was written when I was 14 and published at 15, while the next, a poetry collection, was released when I was 22. It is available on Amazon and titled WHEN I AM SOMEONE ELSE. In the year 2022 I will be releasing two new novels - The Buried King, a soft fantasy fiction novel detailing survival, strength and more - and another poetry collection entitled SCARLET CLOCK under Tamarind Hill Press, an independent publisher in the United Kingdom. I have experience with peer support, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, and art therapy; I am a digital and traditional artist, cat mom and I have done volunteer work on and off for years. Hopefully you'll find some part of this wonderful to talk about and share with your audience as my aim is to inspire and provide people with a little bit of hope I'm this topsy turvy thing we call life.
