I continue to show a 60 minutes segment about a woman in Appleton Wisconsin and others who were diagnosed with MPD, and she referred to it, and her psychiatrist, Kenneth Olson paid a $2.6 million lawsuit. He convinced her that she had 126 personalities, and performed an exorcism on her as well.

The 12-steps AA program is a waste (no pun intended) of time. The program has not produced any significant results for those seeking addiction cessation.The program's emphasis on total abstinence and surrender to a higher power has proved to be non effecive.Some renegades from AA are advocating
