Leah works as a consultant on the hit Showtime series, United States of Tara, produced by Steven Spielberg and written by Oscar winner Diablo Cody, starring Toni Collette as a wife and mother with DID/Multiple Personalities. Leah currently resides in Southwest Virginia. You can view her work at www.leahpeah.com.
Overcoming a mental illness begins with naming it. For Leah, the process of identification takes three decades and eleven doctors. Leah's story is one that must be heard to aid those suffering with Multiple Personalities/DID as well as those with Bipolar disorder; to let them know they are not alone, to help them find their answers and finally to allow them to heal. Leah grows up, marries, starts a family and disrupts it all to conquer her affliction. Leah's true life odyssey includes the dangerous pranks of Claire, a murder attempt by Predator and the resurfacing memories of Too, a six-year-old version of Leah.

"Not Otherwise Specified--- WOW"
This book is so genuinely and ingenuitously written, that it forces you to be honest about how your 'inner' selves have survived intact.

"WOW"
What an amazing truth has been told in this book, Leah is not only couragious for sharing with us this whole of her life but loyal to herself in doing so.
The thing "we" liked best about this book is that "we" weren't triggered in anyway while reading it.
Thanks for opening up your life to share with everyone of us who struggles each day with DID or DDNOS.
