As a psychologist with lived experience of dissociative identity disorder (DID) formally known as Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD) and after over a decade of engaging in the healing process from complex trauma Adrian Fletcher was no longer willing to remain silent about her condition. Her story is one of hope, love, and resiliency.  She has chosen to embrace the power of vulnerability with the hope of deconstructing the stigma surrounding not only DID but around all mental health related conditions. She wants to raise awareness and bring hope to others. In powerful messaging she speaks out to challenge the inaccurately portrayed historical narrative surrounding DID. She hopes that all people can get to a place of lovingly accepting who they are regardless of a diagnosable condition. She wants people to know that healing is possible and that they are not alone.
