Topics
Jo: 在心理学课上了解到代理型孟乔森综合征后，意识到自己童年经历的医疗虐待，这改变了她的人生，并引发了一系列心理健康问题，包括饮食失调、强迫症、抑郁症、焦虑症和创伤后应激障碍。她开始寻找医疗记录，并与治疗师和医生沟通，试图理清事实真相。在与长期治疗师Angie的沟通中，Jo逐渐理解了饮食失调作为一种生存机制的复杂性，以及它与童年创伤之间的联系。 Andrea Dunlop: 探讨了童年创伤记忆的缺失和成年后对童年经历的依赖性，以及人们对所爱之人的信任如何在代理型孟乔森综合征中发挥作用。她强调了及时报告虐待行为的重要性，即使看起来毫无希望，因为这可能意味着生与死的区别。 Angie: 回顾医疗记录帮助Jo处理创伤，并促进了她对饮食失调的理解和应对。她指出饮食失调可能是代理型孟乔森综合征幸存者的一种应对机制，它既能帮助他们生存，也可能危及生命。 Jackie Rodriguez: 解释了DID的成因复杂，与多种因素有关，包括童年创伤、家族遗传和环境因素。她指出对DID的研究存在不足和偏差，媒体对DID的刻画也存在误导。DID的治疗主要包括心理教育和去污名化工作。 Jade Miller: 指出媒体对多重人格的刻画存在误导，多重人格者并不比其他人更容易成为罪犯。她描述了多重人格的典型表现，以及如何为多重人格者提供支持。 Dr. Wilson: 描述了她如何注意到Jo母亲夸大症状、过度关照以及一些无法证实的异常症状，从而怀疑存在虐待行为。她解释了区分焦虑的父母和虐待孩子的父母的难度，以及向医生撒谎并非犯罪，但应将此类事件视为对儿童的医疗虐待，而非仅仅关注施害者的精神状态。她还强调了医疗虐待形式多样，且可能比其他形式的虐待更严重。

Shownotes Transcript

Today we look back at Jo’s revelation in their twenties that they’d been a victim of Munchausen by proxy abuse: a moment that turned their world upside down. As Jo forges a path forward – reviewing their medical records and even confronting their childhood pediatrician – they discover how complex healing from this abuse truly is.

Jo also opens up about their experiences with Dissociative Identity Disorder. We speak to Jo’s therapist, Angie, about their complicated system of coping mechanisms. We also bring in Jackie Rodriguez LMSW, QMHP-CS and peer support specialist Jade Miller to help us understand the deeply misunderstood and stigmatized condition of DID.
