Two little girls, the author and her sister, were routinely terrorized and assaulted over a period of years by a family friend. One grew up closed and withdrawn, the other angry, self-destructive, and dissociated. Most painful of all, their common suffering resulted in estrangement from each other. ‘Becoming One’ began as Sarah Olson’s attempt to provide a written account of her memories for her sister as a means of reconciliation and healing. It documents her four-year process of discovery and recovery from Dissociative Identity Disorder.
This book is a highly personal look into an individual life, the dynamics of a troubled family, and the healing power of the therapeutic process. $0.99 on Kindle.
