Dissociative Identity Disorder and Colonial Trauma with Tremaine Ake

Tremaine Ake is a writer and podcaster from Aotearoa New Zealand living with Dissociative Identity Disorder and Complex PTSD, who has been in and out of the mental health system in New Zealand since he was fourteen. We're talking about what it's like to experience disassociation, hallucinations, delusions, what it's like to have other personalities, and how colonial trauma has affected Tremaine's mental health as a person of Maori descent.
