The Multiple Journals

The pages are based on art and text taken from my journals.  I began writing my "Multiple Journals" in November of 1994, at age 44.  I was being ''flooded " by memories of early childhood abuse. I was quickly diagnosed with MPD/DID-- Multiple Personality Disorder, or Dissociative Identity Disorder.  

These pages, my journal pages, later became Looking Inside: Life Lessons from a Multiple Personality in Pictures and Words. They are a reminder that It is possible to survive childhood abuse, it is possible to remember the abuse, and it ispossible to survive the remembering.  I am an Artist and a Survivor.

"I AM LOST"

Art and Words by Judy Castelli

How do I get from here to there?

DID, multiple personality, abuse survivor

I am blind.  No eyes to see.

I take another step.  Another.

I climb the mountain in darkness.

The next step will kill me.

If I do not see it, I will not know.

If I see it, I will not dare to make the leap.

Either way, I do not win this game.

There is no prize for winning.

I do not expect to win.

And Yet...
