Famous Lindsay Schofield Quotes

“When DID is severe Just as any condition may be mild or severe, this is equally true of dissociation and any condition indicated on the dissociative scale. When someone has endured organized or ritualized abuse, dissociation may be their only defense; sometimes even this is used against them. Whilst DID can be diagnosed with the presence of only two or more distinct parts/'self-states", survivors of chronic and complex abuse, or of organized or ritualized abuse may have many, many more parts. This is called "polyfragmentation" - quite literally "many fragments". Survivors of this form of abuse are likely to need specialized support from professionals experienced and equipped for working with this type of trauma.”
