Today we spoke to the extraordinary Dr. Jeni Haynes who developed dissociative identity disorder (DID) as a survival mechanism after experiencing horrific abuse at the hand of her father. 

Jeni has over 2500+ alters who have helped her survive the situations she was forced into, and after making legal history and seeing her father behind bars, they now work to help other survivors of sexual and child abuse seek justice.
