Manage episode 421848297 series 1604494
This week brings a special episode where Mike speaks with Leyna; she is one of several alters in the Doug Vincent System, to explain the condition of Dissociative Identity Disorder (trigger warning: suicidal thoughts & self-harm are briefly discussed in this conversation).
In more detail, Leyna first explains why she & the Doug Vincent System have gone public to talk about their condition and their connection to the Marvel comic character Moon Knight. Further in the conversation, they discuss the many misconceptions surrounding DID (especially in films), how severe & repeated trauma at a young age can bring on DID, how the alters within a system communicate, how religion helped them through darker times, what the internal & external worlds of someone with DID is, and so much more – this is podcast is one of the most important conversations Mike has ever had on GCC, so make sure you tune in!
