> I was just reading some more about MPD/DID, and it hit me! Perhaps a believer in the disorder can tell me: Assuming the disorder is real, how do we know which of your "personalities" is posting for any given post? Do you use multiple ids here on PB? You must if you're personalities aren't aware of each other.

Assuming the disorder is real? This is a recognized disorder in the DSM.

I would ask that you choose your words with consideration, as there are people on these boards who have this diagnosis and may feel put down and insulted by you questioning the legitimacy of this diagnosis.


> When I was hosp. for Dep. in 1988, I was in with 2 or 3 MPD patients and I only witnessed one change personalities enough to be even noticeable.

You were spending that much time with other patients during a psychiatric hospitalization to witness personality changes? Normally you need to know a person's base personality very well before being qualified to judge when that personality is changed.
