About Dissociative Disorders
An excerpt from a DVD made by UK charity First Person PluralAll humans are multiple. The idea of a unitary continuous self is actually an illusion our minds attempt to create, when in fact, the mind has many distinct parts which are needed to carry out the many and diverse activities of life. {{Rp|209}}[3], in collaboration with National_Health_Service NHS professionals and the Pottergate Centre [1]. This excerpt features Remy Aquarone.
Excerpt featuring members of First Person Plural[3]. First Person Plural hold free screenings and keep contact details of who in each NHS trust has a copy of the DVD.

IntegrationIntegration (state of unification) occurs in the minds of all individuals and is a process rather than an end product. "If integration is impaired, the result is chaos, rigidity, or both. Chaos and rigidity can then be seen as the red flags of blocked integration and impaired development of the mind." {{Rp|9}} The natural process of the mind is to link differential parts (distinct modes of information processing) into a functional and unified self. No child has unified personality when born, in fact, they need years of sufficient nurturing for the parts of their personality to integrate. (see multiple) {{Rp|394}} "Integration is more like making a fruit salad than like making a smoothie: It requires that elements retain their individual uniqueness while simultaneously linking to other components of the system. The key is balance of differentiation and linkage." {{Rp|199}} Integration is the normal process that occurs in early childhood, but if interrupted by trauma and disorganized attachment, the child may not be able to integrate, resulting in a dissociative disorder. {{Rp|143}} As an adult, when therapy is sought out, an individual who has unresolved trauma and lacks integration, can finally get the help needed to process the trauma memories, which needs to be done prior, and to finally [integrate the alters making up the ersonality into one unified self. {{Rp|141-144}}
