    Extractions: Multiple Personality Disorder Mental illness in itself is a hard thing to accept, both by the patient and the general public, but most mental illnesses come with the comfortable padding of knowing that they are biological in nature and not caused by the actions or neglect of mankind. Multiple personality disorder does not have the luxury of these "easier" answers. When confronted with PTSD and dissociate disorders, we are forced also to face the fact that these disorders are brought on by other human beings, an answer much harder to accept. A common mistake in addressing MPD is to look at its symptoms, rather than its causes or treatments. We listen for strange small voices, we try to count the individual's number of personalities, etc. Perhaps this is an easier way than addressing the real issues. To quickly blame a "bad therapist" for suggesting things that caused false memory syndrome is easier than facing the reality that one human being could be that cruel to another. This causes a repeat in the abuse doesn't it? Those with MPD must not only face their diagnosis, but they must also face their memories and seek good treatment in a world that is still not ready to accept this disorder for what it really is...a highly creative method of managing the "too painful to be real" circumstances by an innocent child.

    Extractions: Definition Multiple personality disorder, or MPD, is a mental disturbance classified as one of the dissociative disorders in the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders DSM-IV ). It has been renamed dissociative identity disorder (DID). MPD or DID is defined as a condition in which "two or more distinct identities or personality states" alternate in controlling the patient's consciousness and behavior. Note: "Split personality" is not an accurate term for DID and should not be used as a synonym for schizophrenia Description The precise nature of DID (MPD) as well as its relationship to other mental disorders is still a subject of debate. Some researchers think that DID may be a relatively recent development in western society. It may be a culture-specific syndrome found in western society, caused primarily by both childhood abuse and unspecified long-term societal changes. Unlike depression or anxiety disorders , which have been recognized, in some form, for centuries, the earliest cases of persons reporting DID symptoms were not recorded until the 1790s. Most were considered medical oddities or curiosities until the late 1970s, when increasing numbers of cases were reported in the United States. Psychiatrists are still debating whether DID was previously misdiagnosed and underreported, or whether it is currently over-diagnosed. Because childhood trauma is a factor in the development of DID, some doctors think it may be a variation of

McLuhan's assumption that the media-net would become merely an extension of the human nervous system with the humanoid core remaining its 'same old self' has provided a touch stone for both the liberation rhetoric of writers such as Howard Rheingold and for tele-vangelists seeking the redemption of the free market through the virtual corporation: a model of business as the management of flows that is at once homely and sublime - yet not of course lacking in sadistic perks.

    Extractions: On Serendip In popular culture, Dissociation, and Dissociative Identity Disorder (previously known as Multiple Personality DisorderMPD) is considered a very exotic, rare and enigmatic psychological phenomenon . It seems that, especially in the media and entertainment, multiple personality disorder is stigmatized by a number of quite florid and nearly hysterical symptoms. Clinically, however, Multiple Personality Disorder has been recognized for centuries and is currently estimated to exist in 1% of the general population , and as much as 7% of the population may have suffered from a dissociative disorder at some point in timem . Currently, DID (MPD) is most generally defined as a disturbance in the normally integrative functions of memory, identity, and consciousness . Most simply stated, MPD/DID is manifest as an inconsistent sense of self or "I" . Interestingly, it has been established that MPD/DID is actually one of many dissociative disorders and falls on a continuous spectrum of dissociation which ranges from normal/common dissociative episodes to "poly-fragmented" DID Researchers and clinicians believe that dissociation is a very common and naturally occurring defense mechanism, which results from early childhood trauma. Full blown DID or poly- fragmented DID (more than 100 personalities) is characteristically a result of severe, and prolonged occurrences of physical, sexual, or emotional abuse occurring before the age of 12 (and often before the age of 5)

    Extractions: "It's in the DSM-IV" in the October 1998 edition of the False Memory Syndrome Foundation newsletter for a review of this issue.) In the early 1990s, surveys conducted in the United States and Canada showed a majority of psychiatrists had not made the diagnosis or even seen a case of MPD.[6] These results suggest that the high figure for the disorder is best explained by the fact that a small number of psychiatrists are making a large number of diagnoses.[7] Due to the efforts of a group of multiple personality disorder proponents, Frank W. Putnam, M.D., Bennett G. Braun, M.D., Philip Coons, M.D., Colin Ross, M.D., Eugene Bliss, M.D. and Richard P. Kluft, M.D., the diagnosis of MPD came to be listed in the DSM-III in 1980.[8] Prior to 1980, there were approximately 200 cases reported worldwide.[9] In 1990, however, over 20,000 persons had been diagnosed with MPD.[10] Today, there are estimates of as many as two million more.[11] Since 1980, many prominent members of the psychiatric community have challenged the existence of the diagnosis and its inclusion in the DSM. [12] "There is considerable controversy in the psychiatric and psychotherapeutic communities about the diagnosis of DID. Experts cannot agree whether the occurrence of dissociation and the emergence of alters are sometimes encouraged or even produced by psychotherapy, and whether the disorder is overdiagnosed by a small number of psychotherapists. See DSM-IV, at 486-487. Coming to a reasoned conclusion on this issue is particularly difficult because the mental health community has not yet reached a consensus on the nature of the disorder." (Minnesota Supreme Court, Slavik v Wall, 1988, WL 540967.) (MPD is now called Dissociative Identity Disorder, or DID.)

    Extractions: HOME ARTICLES THEMES CONTACT Your location: Home TRANSLATE 13 December 2001 Being Bushed multiple personality disorder in a globalized religious flatland To be "bushed" is an Australian expression signifying to be confused or lost out in the "bush" also implying the associated state of exhaustion. This seems an appropriate experiential condition to explore in the light of George Bush's framing of the 11th September attack as an attack on civilization itself and the nature of the response since then. The whole crisis and especially the response has effectively shredded the advances in human rights on which so many have worked and depended in their expectations of a more civilized future within a global community. Democracy has been put on hold if not completely discredited with the radical shift to bully-boy politics: "vote for us or the terrorists will get you, and so will we". The approach taken here is to explore the way the dimensionality of civilized discourse has been reduced to the binary limitations of "Them-or-Us" logic even for the best and the brightest, from whom more might have been expected. It is possible that this strategy has been deliberately adopted by them in order to simplify the challenges of controlling a complex society widely acknowledged to be ungovernable. But rather than indulge in any blame game, it seems more interesting to explore the ways in which the crisis can be internalized. When external discourse is subject to severe sanction, the full array of issues can be better explored within one's own psyche complete with "George Bush", "Osama bin Laden", "carpet bombing", "assassination", and the "Taliban" as part of the

    http://asklepia.tripod.com/Chaosophy2/MPDandCRP.html
    
    Extractions: CONSCIOUSNESS RESTRUCTURING PROCESS In shifting identities MPDs experience uncommon dreams, in an intuitive, if misbegotten, attempt at growth and change. Experience of alters carries the aura of a ‘waking dream,’ where things appear real, but not quite ‘right.’ The Consciousness Restructuring Process fosters this healing attempt, rather than thwarting it. CRP facilitates inter-modal shifts between not only identities, but sensations, perceptions, emotions, imagery and behavior. Thus, it offers a ‘positive outlet’ for a process trying to self-correct the organism, but allowing that process to flow beyond the state of fragmentation to the fully undifferentiated experience for healing, dissolving old ‘basins of attraction’ in the mindscape. The psychophysical channels of both the limbic-hypothalamus system (seat of reward/punishment circuits) and the placebo effect are invoked to account for positive results.
