My mother had multiple personality disorder. Most people thought she was a gentle, Christian, prayerful lady. But she was decidedly not kind to me. People in the church we belonged to brought their concerns to my father. She was very good at lying. It was very hard to not believe her. Now I realize it was a switch she made. She 'disassociated' herself from the person who treated me the way she did. Because it was specific to me most people didn't see it or believe it when I reached for help. It was when she was GA director at our church that it became apparent to others that she was emotionally abusive to me and favored my twin sister. It was so bad one prominent couple in the church offered to take me in at 16 yrs old. I told them no because the emotionally abused tend to blame themselves and I was no different. She disguised herself so well, when she died they said of her that she was a prayer warrior for God! However, noone questioned me when I refused to attend the funeral. I would have liked to see her try her lies out in heaven. If God is truth I don't see her going anywhere near Him.
