How I Cured My Multiple Personality Disorder and My Painful Journey to True Mental Health

Uncovering Amy

by Amelia South and Bryan Redfield

About The Book

Fair warning: This book contains graphic personal experiences, strong language, and intense psychological themes. If you’re not ready for the unfiltered truth about dissociative identity disorder, put it back on the shelf.

Uncovering Amy is Amelia South’s raw, unfiltered memoir of living with dissociative identity disorder (formerly known as multiple personality disorder) — and the radical, self-directed process she used to retrain her brain and reclaim internal control.

This is not a story of gentle healing. It is a firsthand account of internal wars, competing identities, and the desperate, sometimes dangerous attempts to make the chaos stop. Alcohol. Exorcisms. Extreme self-experimentation. Moments of terror. Moments of breakthrough. And the slow, deliberate work of learning how to lead a fractured inner world.

With a chapter by Bryan Redfield, her guide through the process, Uncovering Amy explores a structured framework for internal leadership — not surface-level coping, not spiritual bypassing, but the gritty, methodical reorganization of the mind from the inside out.

This book does not claim to be the only answer. It is one person’s documented path from psychological fragmentation to internal coordination. Along the way, it raises a provocative question: if a divided mind can learn to work together, what might that mean for the internal conflicts we all carry?

If you’re looking for comforting platitudes, this isn’t it.
If you’re ready for honesty, courage, and a story that challenges what you think is possible for the human mind — keep reading.

““This isn’t going to help you,” my own voice said to me, making a mocking face. MY OWN FACE had crinkled up. Then it laughed at me. With my own voice. The spirit was no longer only in my head. It wasn’t just a voice or feeling that only I could hear. It had taken control of my body.”
