Did is if you have severe and or repetitive trauma before the age of about nine years old.
Imagine living with multiple personalities, each with its own distinct traits and memories. This is the reality for Kaitlyn Vosburg, who joins Beth on the Safe Home Podcast to discuss Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). Kaitlyn, an advocate and educator on DID, uses her TikTok platform 'apartofeight' to share her journey and bring awareness to this often misunderstood condition.
In this episode, Kaitlyn breaks down what DID is and how it develops, emphasizing that it stems from severe trauma, usually in early childhood. She candidly talks about her own experiences with different 'alters' or identities, providing a raw and honest look into her life. Kaitlyn's stories are not just informative but deeply personal, offering a window into the daily challenges and triumphs of living with DID.
Beth and Kaitlyn also tackle common misconceptions about DID, such as the idea that it's just a form of attention-seeking or that it's exceedingly rare. In fact, DID affects about 1% of the population, making it more common than many people realize. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding and compassion for those living with this disorder. For anyone looking to deepen their knowledge about mental health and the complexities of DID, this episode is a must-listen.
Kaitlyn's insights and advocacy work shine a light on a topic that deserves more attention and empathy.
