'Many Sides of Jane': Looking at Dissociative Identity Disorder through the eyes of Jane Hart who has 9 identities inside her

When it comes to healing and moving forward, Jane believes that the goal is not to get rid of her parts but to help them work better together
PUBLISHED FEB 27, 2019

Jane Hart suffers from Dissociative Identity Disorder, earlier known as Multiple Personality Disorder. DID can be defined as a rare condition where two or more extremely distinct identities are present in and can take control of an individual. Why people develop DID is not clear but the majority report having gone through some sort of trauma such as severe physical and sexual abuse in childhood.

A&E’s documentary 'Many Sides of Jane' explores the 28-year-old's multiple identities which are nine to be exact. Jane does have some more parts inside which are not as developed or have not yet made themselves known at the current stage of therapy.
