Psychosis and neurosis are different things. Although many psychotics can ALSO be neurotic (compare with physical illnesses, a person can have pneumonia AND a fracture) NOTHING can be "a psychotic (neurosis) disorder..." Neurosis is usually when you are basically sane, but have excess undue anxiety over things that wouldn't bother "normal" people. Psychosis is when you are insane, out of touch with reality (perhaps happily perhaps otherwise!) - seeing / hearing things that are not there. Convinced you are being controlled or that plots & conspiracies are all around you. (And you very probably cannot be convinced otherwise...) Whoever wrote that has not grasped a few basic psychiatric facts... |

I have DID and am high functioning. There is NO medication for DID only medication for symptoms such as depression, anxiety. Rarely does it come out in childhood and almost never diagnosised as a child. It's not a psychosis but a dissociative disorder. People that have it know that they have it or that something is wrong we aren't just clueless about it. As far as loosing memory no maybe chicnks of time but not memory. All the memory is there it just sits with other parts and comes out when the person can handle it. Generally the alters will do whatever to protect the person or host and they don't run around all crazy. They generally hide unless provoked. I have friends that know i have this and have clue if an alter is out or not that is how well it is usually hidden. If the alters don't want anyone to know about them trust me they won't. I don't take any medication for this but i am in therapy. I have a degree, most people would be shocked to learn i have this. |

MPD can be caused in adulthood too. Most experts do not recognize that fact. Primarily it happens then from situations such as the very usual regression to child that happens when adult women are held captive and tortured. Police who respond first to women victims of such often remark the female victims are like little girls. This happens also to males held as sex slaves but less often. Once in the child-like state they can and do develope DID or MPD as it used to be called. The prognosis is very good for MPD developed late in life as the patient does have a sense of oneness to recognize when and if they integrate back to that state. It is the (usual) lack of experience with being just one identity that makes this disorder hard to overcome. |

My ex wife has a close friend that fits this description. She can be very nice one minute, then like a flick of a switch, turn into a very scary disturbed abusive nutter. |

I had a friend with this problem. It started when he was 11 years old when he stabbed his dad about half a dozen times (fortunately he survived). He was misdiagnosed several times, first with bi polar then with schizophrenia. He's now 24 years old and its really difficult for him. He has 2 other personalities. The one called Sam is really dangerous and has almost killed people on several occasions. For some reason though he never attacks females. He's the sweetest guy ever. Sometimes he remembers what his other personalities did in his dreams. Its wierd i know. Unfortunately for the people he decides to attack, he is 6"4 and built like a rugby player and is extremely strong, and even more so when he changes into 'Sam'. It doesn't help that people are always tormenting him and trying to get him killed. It's good to know that there is actually some treatment for this disorder |

I don't believe you can ever know what another person is thinking and saying you know what goes on inside of the heads of the people with these illnesses make you a some sort of psychic. I don't believe in psychic. These people may "claim" to feel this way, but people can lie and you are given no reason to believe a person that you believe has MULTIPLE PERSONALITIES |

I found this artical really useful. Whilst I was reading the symptons, I discovered that I was linked to some of them. I will now plan a doctors appointment and hopefully get assesed on this issue. |

I'm 15 years old and there's this boy in my class named Jack, and he's really good looking and all, and everyone thinks he's normal. But apparently he suffers from this only during night, and he has to take loads of medication during the day. Is it possible for this to only happen at a certain time? And if so--why? |

my wife has MPD. she have 5 alters. one is a 6 year old girl, one talks with a hillbilly accent, two very rarely come out cause they are " guardians" and the dominate alter is aggressive and threatening. Im not sure how to handle this. The alters say the more they come out the stronger they become. They dont come out while she is at work cause they dont want her to get in trouble and if she get locked up then so do they, They want to come out and have some fun. So they say. I dont want my wife all druged up. anybody got any ideas |

Wow... um i didnt read the article yet but i i'm doing this science project where i have to explain this disorder.. I really think i might have it after reading about it... I mean i dont get all emotional or anything but i do have different handwriting styles, hairstyles, and i like different things at different times. and i was sexually abused as a child, so maybe i have it... ha, wouldnt that be a trip? ;-) |

This article is... okay I guess.
You claim people with such disorder aren't even aware of having it.
Yes we are.
Even though our minds may be in constant chaos, we do seem to have a neutral state of mind.
I wish you would've touched more on treatments, too. But until then, this seems fairly accurate. |

Patients suffering from Multiple Personality Disorder loose memory in the form of major chunks.
I dont actually think someone "looses" memory. Lose maybe? |

Sometimes I wonder if my sister has DID, but with just one alter personality. For years she has occassionally had binges of drinking, but when she does she becomes somnolent, pitiful, pracitically non-verbal and no visible reasons to go off on a binge...It is like night and day from the vibrant and assertive and wity person that she normally is |

I have DID this is very hard to live with and have hurt myself over it. But that was when I was younger I think trying to conect with your ' other self (s)' as I call the alternate selfs is important an helps you deal with it all. |

its not funny, to make fun of people with MPD, i know people with this disease it may seem like fun to people who dont have it but to people who do have it.. it really isn't |
4/12/2009 |
| Andrew K. |
if you suffer from MPD is there a way to bring out the alters, but you dont know you have it. is there a way to bring them out in Hypnosis, please get back to me whenever you have time... |

I don't know if I'm allowed to do this but, I have a question, has there been people who could sort of make themselves be involved with their alters, their other people, in some way, like a friend or even a lover? |

my experience with multiple personality disorder is that therapists want to believe it exists. doctors can do harm by forcing their beliefs on patients. i was told for years that i have this disorder and i believe it really caused me alot of harm. now that i left my doctor my life is alot better. people need to know both sides of the issue. |

I think I am suffering from MPD, just had a really traumatic 2 years now in my late 50's,not abused as a child, on the contrary, had a wonderful childhood. I actually named my middle name as the perputator of my anger yesterday, and I do believe she is stronger than me, and a totally seperate entity. I am a nice person, loves everyone, she is not nice. |

I am in the same boat re having a split personality that was uncovered by Saxon-Hamilton's use of the Scientology technology and those morons at Saxon-Hamiton won't audit me either as they are a bunch of cowards. Hey John, what is your e-mail address, I would like to talk to you! Did you find someone else to audit you? |

I think you dont need all that treatment to overcome it...
Because sometimes it leaves you for a long period of time even if something that normally would trigger it off doesnt.
Bu then a series of months down the line it may happen.
People can live with it. You dont not need to undergo such treatment.
Its not always as bad as it states |

I have a split personality which was undercovered by the Church of Scientology and their stupid processing. Now the splinter group that
uses the technology specifically Saxon-Hamilton refuses
to audit me because the pussies are afraid of the other personality. Bunch of goddamn pussies!! Screw Saxon-Hamilton! |

The treatment I have been having is psychotherapy from a psyciatrist, NO DRUGS, that just numbs the body even more, people should stop giving drugs for every little things, just talk therapy, extensive at that, and the personalities will come out. I strongly suggest that if you see someone that suggest medicine, take the door as fast as possible, cause they have no clue what they are talking about, what you need is someone that you can trust, trust enough so that the personalities come out and tell their story, and start integrating. This takes time, for me its been 5 years and still going, but I can see the light at the end. Dont give up hope, find that right person to help you. |

I have multipersonality and i sure dont agree with alot of the things that you have writen, at least they arent my experiences. It is too long to explain things here, but i would suggest that you do more research on the subject with people that do have it, and remember, no one is alike, we all have our own individual experiences |

Hi Eden,
People with such medical condition are just like children ... they don't really know what they are doing and how much it can harm them and people around them! They need special care and love!
Just remember the days when you were a child and never knew what's good and what's bad for you ... but your mom had taken care of you and helped you grow young! Today ... whatever you are ... its all because of your mom ... so I would say its a payback time! You should be very careful about her ... take care of her health ... understand that she needs the same level of care which you needed when you were a toddler! Life is always beautiful when you understand that you just don't have to live life for yourself ... but for those who spent their lives for you!!!
Hope this will help you!

My friend has DID, he tells me that he has a personality split into four. It's wierd; he'll get angry at one of us and then be one hundred percent normal a minute later. I had my theories about him being bipolar, but he tells me he has "conversations" with them. Any ideas on how to help, aside from treatment with a pshycotherapist? He's deathly afraid of asking for that kind of help. |

a split personality disorder is when your mind falls apart from it self and you have no control over your actions the way you look at someone you may not like them and you may want to hurt them i have this disorder and i have had it a long time i was about 7 years old when i first went dark a jekyll and hide |

my boyfriend does and says strange things and a minute later has no clue to what he was saying or doing. He hears voices of both female and male, and he sometimes thinks he has out of body experiences, where he can see his own body laying on the coutch if that is where he is ect. And if he drinks alcohole he gets blank easily and his behavior is scary. He also blames me for things he does. He is a adrenalin junkie, he loves to take risks, and is very rebeliouse, what could this mean, bi polar or multiple personalities |

as a psychologist and a multiperson (someone with MPD) I can say, you summarize the topic fairly well. Every Multiperson is different and every multiperson funtions at a different level from doctors and lawyers to folks that have trouble making it from day to day because of their struggles. Dissociation is a healthy and natural coping technique for children to use when they are overwhelmed with childhood abuse (the most common cause). however, by the teenage years they should be giving it up for a more sopistocated technique, but they are sort of stuck with the dissociative pattern of coping. Multiple parts are formed on average by age 4. There is research to show that different parts can have different eye glass prescriptions, allergies, blood pressures, and illnesses like diabetes. I’ve known I was a Multiperson for 18 years and treared many Multipeople in my practice and no 2 Multipeople have been alike. My particular area of interest is the interface between multipeople and medicine. |

Since I was nine, I've had this "other me" who would get really aggressive when I got too sad or depressed. We refer to her ask "Dusk" and there are periods of time when she's really active and others when she's quiet. Could this be MPD? Because when I was nine I lost 3 grandparents and my parents got a divorce. I don't remember anything from my gramma's funeral or for at least a month afterwards. Then one day I woke up and called my friends and they refused to talk to me because I had been "the biggest jerk that they'd ever met. I had no recollection of talking to them since before my gramma's funeral. Could this be MPD? |

It's weird how things may seem. Sometimes I feel like the Lorena everyone thinks I am, then in one hour, I'll be someone 3 years older than me, complete opposite (just like night and day). When I was younger I didn't understand why this was happening to me. Once I took a quiz saying "What personality disorder do you have", and it said DID. I didn't know what that was until I looked it up. The symptoms seem to match mine. This disorder though is very mysterious. Sometimes I DO remember what I did, other times, I don't. So can someone just explain to me more about this, because I refuse to seek medical help if I'm not sure if my symptoms match that much... |
