I have been reading this book called nervous it’s the best book I have ever read so far. It’s about a girl named Jon who has (MPD) multiple personality disorder. Jon’s alter started to appear when she was and the first grade. She always was quiet and keep to her self because the kids bullied her, until one day she was in the playground at school and a couple of girl started picking on her and tried to take her lunch money of course Jon didn’t do anything but sit there and cry because she was scared and had low self esteem. Until all of a sudden she blacked out and her alter who goes by the name of Jude came to protect her. Jude slipped into the restroom where the girls who were bulling Jon were and she beat them up making sure she put one of them into the hospital. From then on the black outs continued as she got older it even ruined her parents marriage she was the cause of there divorce and more mysterious thing that occurred that she couldn’t even remember. The text stir up a lot of curiosity in me because you never know what her alter would do next to ruin this young women life. It was some very disturbing parts and this book that also made me mad like when her alter/other personality would make her have sexual intercourse with strangers and when she would appear back from her black outs she would be and strange places, or when she would take a shower and would fell and smell the scent of a men even though she had never and her own body talked a to a men or been and a relationship with a man to even experience sexual intercourse because she was to nervous to talk to people period. So it gave her a bad reputation as a woman so she tried to seek help by going to a psychiatric specialist. The text also had me curious about what cause her to have multiple personality disorder. From reading this book I learn that( MPD) is a very serious disease that can cause some a person to displays multiple distinct identities or personalities (known as alter egos or alters), each with its own pattern of perceiving and interacting with the environment so never judge a person by its cover.
I was fascinated by your book chat, Melanie! I'm going to have to read something by your author. You did a good job of balancing summary in this post with your personal analysis.
