"I highly recommend Journeys to One: Spiritual Stories of Integrating from Dissociative Identity Disorder reading this book! It has validated so many things I had told my therapist, things I thought no one would ever be able to believe. It has provided me with hope and courage to continue my healing. I think it will be very beneficial to all who love and care about someone who has survived as well. I think these ladies are an inspiration and I thank them so much for sharing."
