Re: [tips] YouTube and Multiple Personality
A good video. However, it would still be good if we had a video that more clearly explained what we think DID is and, although this is problematic for a variety of reasons, a video interview with someone who has DID as we now believe it to exist. I have spoken to a few clinicians who agree that while multiple personality disorder probably doesn’t exist, people do indeed “dissociate”. In one of the videos so far mentioned a clinician says that dissociation is similar to that experience we have when we are driving and we arrive somewhere but don’t know how we got there. Well, I’ve heard that experience used to explain hypnosis so it doesn’t quite work for me. Michael Michael A.

Re: [tips] YouTube and Multiple Personality
Yes, I think DID has as much validity as MPD The reasons for the dissociations and behaviors can vary. And indeed, what people think of dissociation can vary. People can/do present themselves this way based largely on their ideas/beliefs about these disorders. In the 70s and 80s I thought these would be relatively rare and described them to classes as such. Then I met a few students who were being treated for MPD. They did seem to me, to be easily suggestible. I met a five-year old, skippy because he handed in a paper in my class. I am pretty easy as to how papers are constructed, but in those days I seemed to draw a line regarding use of crayon drawings. I had to have a talk with the student, and soon met her other characters/alters. She didn't describe major trauma, but rather a habit of fantasy and withdrawal that she acquired during mild stress/conflict. I only recall three alters. Of course, it was difficult to learn what what might actually have come from her life or her therapist's imagination. In either case, I indicated firmly that I would be teaching only her and that papers must be her responsibility. She had roommates who would look out for her when she became the wild, party typeat least that is what she said. I also asked her to write about her idea of the self as this was a Personality class. I asked also if I could share her account with other classes. She did well. Last I heard...this was late seventies, she had graduated and was completing Social Work program. The other student case was tied to a person making excuses for her class work and wanting to discuss her problems. She seemed more involved in justifying her DID/MPD diagnoses, seemed resentful about her health treatment, but had a scolding side/alter and sexy-sounding side, and implied she could bring more out. Here again, I tried to state strongly that she must pull all together as I would not tolerate separate work. I remember feeling as if she wanted to prove to me she could bring the others out so as to confirm her diagnosis to me. I felt I needed to not agree to such social/language games, but just be the prof. As a social psychologist, I tend to view many mental health diagnoses, once given, as involving ways patients/clients adapt to a social-political system of beliefs and norms that often shape the progression of symptoms presented. I am sure this is the case in other health arenas as well. G.L.

[tips] YouTube and Multiple Personality
Our field is (desperately) trying to “expunge” the idea of multiple personalities from the public consciousness, it’s obviously going to be an uphill battle. I noticed that even a search of YouTube on “dissociative disorder” brings up a slew of popular videos (many old) on multiple personalities. The video that I showed my students: https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1085977368086270fref=nf https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1085977368086270fref=nf is fascinating but probably not nearly so as the ones with the dramatic video of people supposedly having multiple personalities.

Re: [tips] YouTube and Multiple Personality
Hi Beth. Thanks for responding to Michael's query and providing the video link. I just wish I could find a very nice discussion of DID that wasn't so long. As it is, I'm already devoting four class sessions to the chapter on disorders and have a hard time justifying spending an entire day on DID. In fact, my bias these last few years is to spend less and less time on the discussion of the dissociative disorders just given the controversy that surrounds this area. Of course, I'm fighting the students' interest on this one because they find it so fascinating! :) It's also tough deciding what to include and what to omit. ** Mark A.

Re: [tips] YouTube and Multiple Personality
Thanks Scott. This is exactly the kind of video I was looking for. And I agree with you, it was about as even-handed in its presentation of both sides as it could be. ** Mark A.
