Inside Karen's Crowded Mind

[Twila]

I find the brain the most fascinating part of the human anatomy. I can hardly wait to read this book. MPD is one of my favourite subjects to read about. When Rabbit Howls (another book by a MPD sufferer) almost crushed me, do to the horrific abuse the poor girl suffered but how her mind coped is astounding...

Here's a bit on the story...Incase anyone here finds the mind as fascinating as I do.

I read When Rabbit Howl years and years ago. It's interesting.

A net friend of mine suffers from bouts of MPD (that's not what she terms it though) amongst other things. Her description was interesting as she says when it happens to her it would be equivalent to us driving down the highway and missing an off ramp. Don't know how we did it, or where we went, we just know when we're back.
