Produktbeskrivning
''I didn''t know that you''re only supposed to have one personality. I didn''t realise that having lots of voices in your head was abnormal. But you are protecting yourself. You are protecting your soul, and that''s what I did.''
An intelligent, poised woman, Jeni Haynes sat in court and listened as the man who had abused her from birth, a man who should have been her protector, a man who tortured and terrified her, was jailed for a non-parole period of 33 yearsThe man was her father.
The abuse that began when Jeni was only a baby is unimaginable to most. It was physically, psychologically and emotionally sadistic and never-ending. The fact she survived may be called a miracle by some - but the reality is, it is testament to the extraordinary strength of Jeni''s mind.
What saved her was the process of dissociation - Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD) or Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) - a defence mechanism that saw Jeni create over 2500 separate personalities, or alters, who protected her as best they could from the traumaThis army of alters included four-year-old Symphony, teenage motorcycle-loving Muscles, elegant Linda, forthright Judas and eight-year-old Ricky.
With her army, the support of her psychiatrist Dr George Blair-West, and a police officer''s belief in her, Jeni fought to create a life for herself and bring her father to justiceIn a history-making ruling, Jeni''s alters were empowered to give evidence in court. In speaking out, Jeni''s courage would see many understand MPD for the first time.
THE GIRL IN THE GREEN DRESS is an unforgettable memoir from a woman who refused to be silenced Jeni Haynes is an inspiration and her bravery and determination to live is a powerful reminder of the resilience of the human spirit. This is a unique and profoundly important book as it is not only a story of survival, it also includes incredible insight from Dr George Blair-West, Jeni''s psychiatrist and an expert in DID
