Human multiple personality disorder

Dissociative identity disorder (DID), also known as multiple personality disorder, is a mental health condition characterized by the presence of two or more distinct identities or personalities within an individual. These identities may have their own patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving, and may even have their own names and biographical information. People with DID often experience gaps in their memories, and may feel as if they are observing themselves from the outside. They may also have trouble with everyday tasks and may struggle with self-esteem and relationships. The causes of DID are not fully understood, but it is believed to be a coping mechanism developed in response to severe childhood trauma, such as physical or sexual abuse.

Treatment for DID typically involves talk therapy, specifically a type of therapy called dissociation-focused therapy, which aims to help the individual integrate the different identities into one cohesive identity. Medications may also be used to help manage symptoms such as depression or anxiety.

Not everyone have this multiple personalities is suffering from DID, it is a complex and rare condition, and it is important to get a proper diagnosis from a qualified mental health professional.

The concept of multiple personality disorder (MPD), now known as dissociative identity disorder (DID), has been recognized for centuries in various cultures and societies. However, the first modern case of MPD was described in the late 19th century by an American neurologist named William James. His case was that of a young woman named Ansel Bourne, who had lost his memory, and was found with a different personality, with no memory of his past life.

The first widely recognized and documented case of MPD/DID is considered to be that of Mary Reynolds, also known as "Chris Costner Sizemore," whose case was reported by psychiatrist Cornelia Wilbur in the 1940s and 1950s. Her case was a subject of a book "The Three Faces of Eve" written by psychiatrist Corbett H. Thigpen and Hervey M. Cleckley. The book was later turned into a movie.

Both cases and those that came after were not widely accepted by the scientific community and it was considered a rare condition and the diagnosis was not widely accepted. It is still a condition that is being studied and discussed among professionals and it is a controversial subject with ongoing debate.

The exact number of people affected by dissociative identity disorder (DID), which is the current name for multiple personality disorder (MPD), is not known. The prevalence of DID is difficult to estimate because it is a complex and controversial condition. Studies have estimated the prevalence of DID to be anywhere from 0.01% to 3% of the general population. However, these estimates vary widely due to factors such as differences in diagnostic criteria, methods of assessment, and population samples.

Dissociative identity disorder is considered a rare condition, and the diagnosis is not widely accepted. Some professionals believe that the disorder is over diagnosed and that the symptoms may be better explained by other conditions such as borderline personality disorder or post-traumatic stress disorder.

Many people who are diagnosed with DID might not have the condition and are instead diagnosed due to other factors like suggestion, false memory, cultural and societal influences and lack of proper assessment. As a result, the number of people truly affected by DID may be much lower than estimated.
