One afternoon in 1989, Karen Overhill walks into psychiatrist Richard Baer’s office complaining of vague physical pains and depression. Odder still, she reveals that she’s suffering from a persistent memory problem. Routinely, she “loses” parts of her day, finding herself in places she doesn’t remember going to or being told about conversations she doesn’t remember having. Her problems are so pervasive that she often feels like an impersonator in her own life; she doesn’t recognize the people who call themselves her friends, and she can’t even remember being intimate with her own husband.
Baer recognizes that Karen is on the verge of suicide and, while trying various medications to keep her alive, attempts to discover the root cause of her strange complaints. It’s the work of months, and then years, to gain Karen’s trust and learn the true extent of the trauma buried in her past. What she eventually reveals is nearly beyond belief, a narrative of a childhood spent grappling with unimaginable horror. How has Karen survived with even a tenuous grasp on sanity?
Then Baer receives an envelope in the mail. It’s marked with Karen’s return address but contains a letter from a little girl who writes that she’s seven years old and lives inside of Karen. Soon Baer receives letters from others claiming to be parts of Karen. Under hypnosis, these alternate Karen personalities reveal themselves in shocking variety and with undeniable traits—both physical and psychological. One “alter” is a young boy filled with frightening aggression; another an adult male who considers himself Karen’s protector; and a third a sassy flirt who seeks dominance over the others. It’s only by compartmentalizing her pain, guilt, and fear in this fashion—by “switching time” with alternate selves as the situation warrants—that Karen has been able to function since childhood.
Realizing that his patient represents an extreme case of multiple personality disorder, Baer faces the daunting task of creating a therapy that will make Karen whole again. Somehow, in fact, he must gain the trust of each of Karen’s seventeen “alters” and convince them of the necessity of their own annihilation.
As powerful as Sybil or The Three Faces of Eve, Switching Time is the first complete account of such therapy to be told from the perspective of the treating physician, a stunningly devoted healer who worked selflessly for decades so that Karen could one day live as a single human being.
EEO书评人 焦建 可以说,《24重人格》和《我遗失了时间》这两本书之间,存在着诸多的近似于微妙的相似之处。两个对人格分裂症有着切身或者亲密体验的作者——一个作为男性,曾经身患此症。另外一个,治疗的对象则为女性。而两位译者,也相应的都是台湾人,也是一男一女,文字功...
評分一边准备职业考试,一边看的这本书,断断续续看了好几周才看完。感触非常多。大多数人对于这本书的评价可能集中在同情卡伦的遭遇及感叹人精神力量的强大,贝尔医生的职业精神及耐心,不知道有没有人和我一样关心书中的日常。卡伦做过什么工作,交的朋友怎么样,小时候被带去参...
評分第一次知道DID是某一天搜索反社会人格的时候,当时抱着好奇的心态点开视频。 只有一位女性坐在那里,声音很小,非常腼腆。 不过才过了一会儿,她忽然换了口音,操着上流社会的口音,优雅且端庄。 我被她吸引,直至她闭上的眼睛突然透出了光彩。 那不过是一个很老的片子了,你却...
評分story of MPD, it's amazing!
评分越瞭解Karen越覺得她應該算是一個感官被強化進而不得不分離開來承受這些強烈觀感的正常人。我們也都每時每刻要調動自己的不同麵來麵對和處理生活的方方麵麵。我也經常會覺得,平和的我、快樂的我、憤怒的我,各種情緒下的我有多麼的不同、又多麼的相似。而Karen則是將每一種情緒、每一個處境下的自己都強化分離開。當我們有幸可以協調運作自己的精神世界,當我們可以接納吸收所有的好與不好時,我們就展現為一個正常人的形態。但內心深處,我其實也有很多個自己。而我也偶爾會想念另一個狀態下的自己。
