Part 4/7:
One of the most common inquiries posed to both Encina and her interviewer revolves around the authenticity of her experience. Questions about whether she is "faking it" or painting a picture for the audience highlight the ongoing stigma surrounding mental health conditions, particularly DID, often misrepresented in popular media.
Encina’s experience during the interview reassured many that her condition is genuine. Through her articulate storytelling and her heartfelt interactions with Many, it was evident that Encina was not merely performing but sharing a deeply personal journey. This has inspired many viewers who reach out, hoping to gain a deeper understanding of DID and its realities.
