”Living With Dissociative Identity Disorder”

Tonight’s Guest is Jo Calk, She is a child abuse and neglect survivor, author, volunteer, and child welfare advocate. Jo will share her story, as well as what it’s like to live with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) resulting from the child abuse. Under the pseudonym “Megan Erin Galloway,” Jo wrote a memoir titled “Pieces: Help for Your Life Journey,” which explains her creation of the various persona to fill the internal empty space due to a “lack of personality.” Tonight, Jo briefly discusses her childhood, and then updates us with a recent triggering event that fragmented the “integrated self” Jo had maintained for about 10 years. Jo has reintegrated and merged her “selves” and feels stronger now than ever before. She will also explain “isolating” with “12 intimate personas” during the COVID-19 lockdown. Jo is currently designing, creating, and advocating a Child Welfare System Redesign Strategic Action Plan, which is described on her website www.Jo-Calk.com https://soundcloud.com/bailey-smith-369208333/living-with-dissociative-identity-disorder?si=350770c067984b259c9be36ffb7d97f8&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing  https://www.blogtalkradio.com/friendstalk/2021/03/23/living-with-dissociative-identity-disorder http://tobtr.com/11917151
