37. Trans Identities, Dissociative Identity Disorder & The Fragmented Self with Annika Mongan Whose Body Is It

    • Society & Culture

In this episode I’m joined by Annika, a woman who formerly identified as trans who also married a trans-identified man. We walk through her initial discovery of the trans experience and how her support of a trans identified friend left her asking new questions about her gender and sexuality. She discusses her confusing introduction to goddess culture, in which women-only language and spaces were challenged by trans-identified men in the group, and about the influence her trans identified housemates had on her self-perception. Annika details her marriage to a trans-identified man who exhibited Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly Multiple Personality Disorder), the monumental abuse she endured while isolated with him, and the extreme internal resources she developed to survive even as one of her husband’s alters set plans in motion to have her killed. We cover her harrowing journey to piece herself back together after being gaslit by both mental health professionals and her husband, and her intuitive work in illuminating the trans experience as a maladaptive mechanism of internal parts work.
