Lately I have been reading a book called "The Minds of Billy Milligan". It has actually been a very long time since I've read a book just because I wanted to, and not because it was a requirement for English class. The book got me near tears several times, as I felt very pitiful towards the core personality of Billy. One scene was when the core personality woke up and took consciousness, but finding himself in jail. His first reaction was "What did I do again?! Did I hurt someone?" Throughout his life, as different personalities steal time, each personality is often confused about what he/she was doing at place, and some personalities even are there to suffer from the pain. I am not done with the book yet, but from everything that I've read, I would really want to meet this person and actually, if possible, see the different personalities in him to take over control. I wonder how the people would've felt when they saw the drastic changes when a different personality takes over control. So far, I think that this book is both very inspirational and interesting that everyone that is interested in psychology should actually read.
