Because of a movie? what an idiot. You can tell this doctor is one of those who know nothing and studied 50 years ago and has many of his own issues which resolves with anger.
thats all funny. haarp. ducks. pills. 2012. retarded profets. pro-feds. so, me is the son. or sun. who cares. i saw the complexity ooo universe. really needs to be... fresh. more. no, i not what i should lucky world. funworld.. oregon.. more and less.. where ittsi... vansihed faces, full of... clear, clear and more clear
I was walking around with this for to long. Im lucky to be alive.
Call it what you want, It is real... The symptoms are real, that is what counts.. Call it what you want. The point is for the victim that an answer is found because of the relief of symptoms..
ITs the victim that knows.. Fuck the professionals. The victim know, they are looking for relief...
I'd love to meet that Dr. McCue and show him my journals. I only found out there was a name for my issues about two years ago. I started researching PTSD which matched many of my symptoms, then eventually realized there were some symptoms that went beyond the description of PTSD. I came up with what I thought was a novel theory... That the personality might fragment so that different parts held different memories, reactions, talents, etc. Turns out I was right, but it wasn't a new idea.
@transeme1 I'm literally in the *exact* same train as you. Same issue my entire life, just discovered it had a name about two years ago, and recently I've realized that when I'm affected by trauma and I acquire skills, it's distributed like a ration system. But I suppose I truly wasn't as genius as I thought I was in discovering this.
Soo lets just say….. if one women has multiple personalities and one of her alters is a sexually driven maniac and a freak in the Sheets … (lets call her Brenda) and Brenda wants me to tie her up and act like I’m raping her. (as some people enjoy that sort of thing) and after I’ve tied her up and gagged her (like she asked me too and we've both agreed to partake in this type of intimacy ) She then turns to her 7 year old boy alter (Adam). Am I now a sick piece of shit Pedophile?
@mymelodythough be careful...I believe I have had one my whole life, a very controlling one. but why I say "be careful" is because, if you get your head too far into this. Therapists, even videos and Wikipedia can convince your brain that yolu are hearing voices and stuff. I had to straighten myself out back down to my only other "self". I only have two...since I was three. Myself, and what she calls herself is Shelby.
I totaly disagree with that docter..MPD or DID has been diagnosised before by many docters..and i notice that its signs match my behavior and mannerism in a sense..becus of the trama you are forced to hybernate into a secluded world..sometimes you are lost and dont know who you are and pick up other carateristics..if you never had a childhood you would still be that little boy or girl looking for a real hug..anys its real but not as extreme as most people put it to be..its a form of ascape
Zero and Revenge are obviously madly in love with each other but their pretentious, psycho-babble is keeping them from experiencing mad coitus. You two should just get each other's information and hump.
@marilyn611926 Oh, can you relate to ZeroKaziyama, the suburban schizophrenic Dark Knight? Please, you can't relate to him until you've blacked out and beaten-up a room full of thugs with your powers of delusion. Really, Marilyn, that's pretty rude to compare yourself to a crime fighter such as ZeroKaziyama.
@marilyn611926 "Read some Psychiatric Literature," or maybe I should get a degree in abnormal and behavioral psychology? Oops, already did that, and it turns out that you're still wrong! I could go out tomorrow and pay some quack to balance my chakras--doesn't mean they actually exist. I could read a book on the existence of vampires--doesn't mean they're around, either. If you claim to have MPD or DID, you most certainly have something wrong with you--and most call it narcissism.
@Revengeancer Having a degree in abnormal psychology, actually called psychopathology doesn't settle the debate over DID. Your opinion is just that. There are people on both sides of the argument.
It's possible that people with DID might not have truly distinct personalities but traits that make them behave in drastically different ways in which they name as alters. Or, it could be true. The brain is incredibly complex, I would not write off the possibility of it happening.
WOAH WOAH WOAH Calm down you two. One, while I do acknowledge that D.I.D is a disorder and is very much real, there are several holes in your logic, or at least how you are able to communicate with your alters avril. Paraphrasing an entry from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (Otherwise known as DSM), one with D.I.D should not be able to directly communicate with their "alters", as this would, in theory, allow memories to trickle down.
Not only that, but as a person who has D.I.D, I should know. The only way my alter and I can communicate (yes, I only have one other persona) is through indirect contact, AKA notes, memos, voice recordings, etc. I have had D.I.D for the past 10-12 years, so I know the deal. As for Revengeancer, please respect the opinions of others. As a person living with this disorder, it is very heard to deal with life everyday. But I do admit you have a point with the bleeding over effect.
If Avril is able to communicate to his alters through mental conversation, well not only would he be a Medical/Psychological first, but it would disprove certain theories about the Disorder itself. Avril, it's not nice to mock the mental capacity of another. And Revengeancer, it isn't nice to mock actual disorders. Now everyone shake hands and make nice!
@ZeroKaziyama I'm genuinely curious to know more about what's going at your end. If you exchange messages with your alter, it shows that you do not want your personalities to be completely separated, but usually one personality is supposedly "born" as a defense mechanism. Inherently, this means that the original personality typically does not wish to communicate with or acknowledge the second, created as a means of escaping the adverse conditions (abuse, trauma, etc...) that engendered it.
@Revengeancer Sorry about the late reply. I do exchange messages with my alter, and the only reason I do is because I AM aware of his existence. True, my alter was born as a defense mechanism because of traumatic bullying experiences of my past. The reason we exchange messages is that, at times, I lose awareness of my surroundings when I "change", and I need to know where I have been and what has happened to me. Yes, I want myself to be whole again, but I don't really have much of a choice.
@Revengeancer However, there would be no sense in refusing to acknowledge what I have. At first my alter, named Kage, refused contact with me, fearing that the memories he was holding back would bleed over into my consciousness, where they belong anyway. However it soon proved that he acts as a sort of floodgate, stopping me from being able to access these memories. It's quite the interesting mechanism really. We don't necessarily exchange messages to holds chats per say, but as a necessity.
@ZeroKaziyama@Revengeancer Hate to randomly mesage, but I sometimes wake up randomly at my school and can't remember past events that my friends swear happened. They also tell me that I call myself odd names and act totally differenty and don't even recognize them half the time. They also think that the "switch" is sparked by me being alone or being in an unconfortable situation. Might I have the disorder?
@leleevee There is the possibility that you might have D.I.D, or rather a really mild form of it. However, the symptoms never randomly pop up. It takes time. How long have you been feeling these black outs?
@ZeroKaziyama About 5 years or so. And I didn't really mean, "randomly", by that I meant that at random times during the day I come to and can't remeber how I got to the place I was at or what I had been doing.
@ZeroKaziyama Hi. I've been diagnosed with DID as well and some of us have co-consciousness which does allow us to communicate with each other. I usually get no memory trickle down. There are others who cannot hear each other or see each other. They communicate through a middleman, sort of speak. To get the information to them, we will tell one of the alters who can speak and see them. me, personally, I've only been able to speak directly with a few of the alters.
@ZeroKaziyama I'd also like to know which is your dominant personality and how often your 'shifts' occur. Do you ever 'wake up' at work, unable to remember the memo your alter read that morning? What sparks your 'alter' to take over? I'm not poking fun--I really want to know. Feel free to send me a message if you don't want to talk about it on a public forum.
@Revengeancer I don't mind speaking about it. People need to know how the process works. My shifts occur as a result of anger. Extreme anger, or when my life is in danger, as these situations are very similar to the day I "snapped" and my alter was fully formed. Long story short: I was being beaten and bullied as a child, to the point of being sent to the hospital for broken ribs. One day they beat me even worse and were calling me names. The last thing I remember is a laugh.
@Revengeancer However this laugh was mine... But it wasn't. It was different. Darker, more full bodied and as my friends described it: "evil". Next thing I remember I was standing, my friends staring at me in shock. I looked around and my bullies (6-7 of them I think) were on the ground, bloodied and beaten. They were taken to the hospital for broken ribs, arms, legs and I think one had a fractured shoulder blade and another had a broken jaw. My fists were peeled and bloody.
@ZeroKaziyama Oh Jesus Christ, you are not a fucking superhero (if you're trolling though, you're fucking rocking this scene). Are you 14 years old? Who else could think of a fantasy that comic-bookish? By the way, I was in a lab explosion, and now I can shoot lasers from my eyes, so we should totally team up and fight crime. I mean, me and your "alter" should team up.
@Revengeancer Funny how "genuine curiosity" turned into ridicule. Why would I lie? Why would I make any of this up? Honestly that would just hold me to be a sad and lonely person. The point remains the same: That is who we are. That is how it works for us. But, to each their own. I answered your question with an honest response.
@Revengeancer Of course, I was arrested, but let go on self-defense (I thank the security cameras that were recording for that). So, to reiterate, points of extreme anger like I felt that day, or when I am in danger, cause my switch, and cause my alter to take over. He, to describe him, is pure id. No ego, no superego. His sole purpose is to keep me alive and to protect me. And apparently he has a physical effect on me as well. Something I've come to call the "Hulk effect".
@Revengeancer He is able to take amounts of pain that would cripple a normal person, able to keep fighting even to the point where a broken wrist or arm will not stop him, and has a strength that surpasses my own physical limits. However, to everything there is a price. When I come to, immediately I feel all of the pain. Torn muscles, broken bones, bruises, cuts. All of it. And yes, all of this happens when I am not conscious.
@ZeroKaziyama How could I be mad when there's a superhero like you on YouTube? I've never been more elated to meet someone who has turned childhood molestation into a superpower. Thank Christ for the child-molesters--they're the real heroes at the end of the day, aren't they? If nobody had breached your starfish, we wouldn't be blessed with your ability to "take amounts of pain that would cripple a normal person . . . keep fighting" bro. God bless your brave little pucker-breached heart.
Actually, communication between alters is natural. Think of it this way. Do you know about integration? That is when two alters become one person again. This isn't a quick process. It occurs by gradual blending of the selves. For this to happen, communication with alters is needed.
It's all one brain. Is it really that hard to see how the parts of it would be able to communicate?
But we communicate on their terms. I can hear what they say, but no, I can't read their mind.
@avrilrockstheworld10 I am well aware of integration, yes. And I agree it is all one mind. Are you saying that your alter(s) control how you are able to interact with them? THAT, I believe is proper with the medical definition. And I agree that for integration to occur there has to be communication. I'm not sure exactly why I am not able to simply hear my alter's voice or thoughts. Maybe it's just how my mind works. Then again, D.I.D is unique for every single person.
@ZeroKaziyama Yes. I couldn't just call them to front... well, I could, but it's just as likely they would ignore me. We interact on their terms, for the most part.
Communication levels seem to rely on whether or not it was safe for the alters to talk to the child during the abuse. For example, if, in an abusive family, alters had to communicate to make sure the right alter could defend against parents, this would increase communication levels.
@ZeroKaziyama None of their memories are available to me.
Occasionally, if I'm really close to someone, then I might be able to feel their fear from a flashback, but the actual flashback doesn't leak to me. The barriers between us are too strong for that.
Besides, to overcome the PTSD, one needs to have the memories. Memories being shared between alters is a sign of healing. While alters don't want you to remember, above all, they want you to be safe and heal.
@Jussire I’m a councilor at my church, our church deals with a lot of people with demonic issues and possession ect, but also many come in that had ritual abuse and have many multiples. And I council many with DID. And I don’t see DID as a sickness or disorder at all. There mind is fine and they are very sain. It’s just they been through trauma and there mind has the ability to split off the bad trauma and keep them from and core person, if you have these issues I would like to talk with you
Everyone knows multiple personality and trauma are not the same lol
What people say is that trauma can cause multiple personality as a way for defense, anyways it's not concious.... and can bring other problems wich are not bad enough to suffocate the benefits of it to the person who felt extremely painful in the past... it's a way the brain found....
the second doctor wearing white clothes doesn't know the truth... someone from my family has it, and it's not for any people's kind of attention, and more, it often appears in stressing moments, depending on how stressing it is, the most violent personality can appear.... It really seems, after sometime, that it was caused by trauma... and the most odd part is that one personality can have a lot of stress with another, and that can bring more problems.... it's not controlled, not at all.
my brother has it along with bi-polar disorder ... they wont allow us to send him no where so how can i forcefully get him help since he belives he has no problem and the system is screwed up and thinks that people mentaly ill can judge rather or not they have a problem when they are of legal age .. the system sucks... my brother has beatened up multiple family members my mom and grandparents and didnt care to call us and tell us he was being released
ummm i dnt thnk its that common but you cant say it doesnt exist. ive seen homeless ppl talking to themselves which im sure you all have. mybe they see themselves how they want or idk. something. soldiers might develop it to forget the things theyve seen and gone threw. but no one can be an expert on the subject. relax its just another persons theoryno need to start wars.
@ReptarTheUgly Talking to your self doesn't answer anything, it's a shot in the dark.... I believe people can be expert in this subject, but now it's just in developing and discovering process....
poor stupid ignorant doctors this last idiot say this is all fake there are millions with mpd this has been done to them by ur own government belive me
@Paghmani1sher whats wierd about your statement is that my brother has this and has claimed he is apart of the
government multiple times actually every one i met with MPD has said they were apart of the government my brother even thought he was a FBI agent could just be too much tv though
@KubwaNaNzuri when u start to read about the secrets thats going on in this world its so easy for u to see that people like ur presisdent are just actors and we the people are the audiance please read this book u can download it for free form piratebay.,,,The Illuminati Formula Used to Create an
@shadowgrail How is HIDING a problem being an attention wh*re? What would be the point of doing something for attention and then never showing anyone???
@shadowgrail Hun, how would it get them attention? Most multiples do a fantastic job of hiding it. They only get found out by very close friends and/or family (or, in some cases, people on the interne they will never truly meet in real life). The rest of the world would never know. They hide it to prevent the stigma that is attatched to the diagnosis. I can assure you, most with DID do not want any attention from their disorder.
@avrilrockstheworld10 Yes, all MPD's do this, because all sufferers of MPD are like Vampires and adhere to the strictest set of stereotypical behavioral codes. They are all the same--suffering but not crying out for attention. "I can assure you, most with DID do not want any attention from their disorder," and yet here you are, shoving your foot right back into your mouth. Seriously, how can look in a mirror and not feel like a total failure? I'm not even trying to be rude--this is real. How?
@Revengeancer MPD's is not a term. That is like calling those with depression Depression's. It is offensive.
They are nothing of the sort. If you would take five minutes of your life to do even the slightest bit of research, even just here on youtube, you would see how incredibly different every person with it is. As DID is a trauma born, not created by abnormal brain chemistry, the way it applies to everyone with it is unique.
I don't want attention for it. I want to educate people.
@Revengeancer I know that many people can't comprehend how DID could be real. I am here to try and educate them, even if only a little. Is Youtube a terrible place to do that? Yes. But if what I post helps even one person looking here for information, then it's worth. And it only takes a minute or two of my time to reply, so there's no reason not to.
Considering I'm actually succesful in life? Very easily.
DID is real. The brainwave patterns for each alter is different. They are real.
@avrilrockstheworld10 You've triggered something here. People like you are the worst the world has to offer, because you invent new ways for the world to owe you something. Whatever wrong that befalls you won't ever be your fault. Well, if you were so broken you housed MPs inside of ya, I'm pretty sure the Eskimos would've sent you afloat on some ice drift somewhere. I'm not hunting seals with you.
@Revengeancer Oh, yes, blame it all on me. Lovely philosophy in life.
I don't think a single person here owes me anything. As I told an above poster, I am simply trying to make information on DID as freely accesable as possible.
What have I done here that would be my fault? Replying to comments is hardly a crime, my dear.
I'm top of my class, actually. And yes, it is thanks to the DID, and the fact that one of our alters is basically a genius.
@avrilrockstheworld10 "And yes, it is thanks to the DID . . ." Look, I'm not going to play the game with you. You know well that MPD and DID do not exist. The very fact that you maintain this charade is both ridiculous and sad. I feel sorry that you think you have to do this to get attention.
@Revengeancer If you're not "playing the game," why do you feel so compelled to reply? I promise you, this is no game for us. This is something we live with and must cope with for every moment of our waking life. It is no game, no charade, to us.
DID is very real, I can promise you that much.
I don't quite understand why you are on this video if you do not believe in Dissociative Identity Disorder. It would almost seem you are more attention seeking than we.
@avrilrockstheworld10 I love how you're trying to spin this around like I'm the one with a problem. No, the fact is, I've studied DID enough to know it doesn't exist. It's called Soap Opera Syndrome for that very reason. You're upset because I'm calling you out, but the fact is, you have no way of defending something that isn't real. I, on the other hand, can. I get upset when I encounter people like you because you're abusing information to suit your own needs. You should be ashamed.
@Revengeancer Trolling on Youtube videos does tend to mean one has a problem, yeah.
We're studying to be psych. We have been studying DID for the past few years. We've been formally diagnosed and know others who have recieved the same diangosis
It's in the DSM-V for a reason. The only other thing Dissociative Identity Disorder has ever been called was Multiple Personality Disorder.
Upset? No, actually. You're amusing us. I like debating, and if it spreads awareness, I'm all for it!
@Revengeancer I should be ashamed that I was abused by my grandfather until I had multiple personalities? Or do you just mean that I should be ashamed I want to spread awareness in any way possible, even if that means debating in the comments of a Youtube video?
@avrilrockstheworld10 Part of me pities you, and a larger part is pissed off at the audacity you have to claim that you house multiple exclusive personalities inside yourself. You're an emotional parasite, and I'm sure that those who know you personally suffer for it every day of their lives.
@Revengeancer I have DID. I was diagnosed. I have been living with this disorder since I was two years old, when the abuse began. I suffer from PTSD and Panic Disorder as well. The alters are the reason I'm still alive.
Emotional parasite? Haha, I wish. It would mean I would be using others, instead of being the one constantly having to play therapist to every dang person we know.
Haha, I doubt it. Like I said, we want to be a therapist so we can help others. We don't hurt anyone.
@avrilrockstheworld10 I think it's painfully clear that you are a very lonely person to pretend to suffer as you do. No two-year-old in the world has ever been diagnosed with DID. At this point, I realize that you're so deep into your delusion that you won't admit that you're a pathological liar. Seriously, good luck with that. You can say whatever you want to make yourself feel better, but you have to live with that. --And you're really referring to yourself as "we?" Pathetic.
@Revengeancer Actually, I have plenty of friends, thankyouverymuch. And I fail to see why that would affect my trying to educate the public.
Actually, while I can't tell you if any children of age two have been diagnosed, there are definitely children who were diagnosed. There's even a specific criteria in the DSM relating to age:
From the DSM: In children, the symptoms are not attributable to imaginary playmates or other fantasy play.
So your argument is invalid. Yes, DID affects kids.
@avrilrockstheworld10 We can keep doing this "yes-huh/nuh-uh" argument, but like I said before, you know the truth. You know well that you do not house multiple exclusive personalities inside your psyche. I've literally had to deal with folks like you in both my internships and career, and I just feel sorry for you. You will never admit that you're lying--you need the attention that badly. I sincerely hope you come to terms with that someday.
@Revengeancer Actually, I was diagnosed with DID. No one has ever, in my entire life, suggested that I am a pathological liar. I may occasionally lie, but no more than your average person, I would think.
I have to live with the DID, yes. And it affects me everyday. And there's really nothing I can do about that at the moment.
I refer to ourselves as "we" when I am talking about something that more than one of us agree on, yes. It would be rude to do otherwise.
@avrilrockstheworld10 You are a very lonely person. You can maintain this charade as long as you want, but it can't be a fun way to live, pretending to suffer from a disorder that doesn't exist. There's nothing I can say to make you admit that you're lying, but you and I both know the truth--and one of us has to live with that. I genuinely feel sorry for you, having to resort to such an extreme measure of getting attention.
@Revengeancer Oh, living with PTSD isn't fun at all, I'll admit. But the DID helps me handle it. Most of the time. Admitedly, sometimes, it's the DID that's the problem. But the alters saved my life. I respect them for that.
Do we both know the truth? I'm actually starting to think you seriously believe I'm lying. Weird. Could have sworn you were a troll. :S
Well, have a good life, dude. But seriously. DID is real. Maybe look into it a little more? Or just keep being ignorant...
@avrilrockstheworld10 What is it about you that makes you so needy as to pretend to suffer from a fictional disorder? "Look into it a little more?" I have a degree in Psychology. To quote a wise man, "your ignorance is not equal to my education." I've worked hard, and I can back my claims with substantial evidence. You, on the other hand, just play this mystical "you can't understand" card. I feel sorry for the people that have to encounter you everyday. You're an emotional parasite.
@Revengeancer I am not pretending. I have DID. You calling me a liar doesn't change that.
Honestly, I wouldn't have even respond to your trolling if it weren't for the fact that you respond on almost every DID video just to bug people. Enough is enough. Back off.
You have a KKK video favourited. I doubt you have a degree in psychology. I was diagnosed with DID, but I doubt you've even graduated from school. I refuse to debate with trolls. Enjoy your life. Enjoy being blocked.
@avrilrockstheworld10 I have a video featuring a KKK leader who realized how terrible the group was and left, another video that literally depicts "white power" racism as a disease, and another featuring a black man dressed in a KKK suit, sitting at the head of the table. All my videos are clearly against racism. I'm truly amazed by how poor your observational skills are. You have no credibility.
Again, you use the term "trolling" to mark an ideal you don't like. You're oppressive.
@avrilrockstheworld10 The very fact that you can pretend to converse with your "alters" shows that they are not exclusive personalities, that they bleed over, and that is not what MPD posits to be. There's nothing that I can say that you won't counter with a pretend truth that I can't counter with an actual truth that you won't counter with another delusion. The only thing to do is to let you play out your fantasy, knowing that I don't have to actually deal with you.
I don't even know where to begin with those who don't believe DID exists. Attention seeking? Are you kidding me? I suffered in silence and isolation in order to hide it for decades. Maybe there are doctors who have done horrible things like unnecessary surgeries, amputated the wrong limb, and/or misdiagnosed a patient with DID? That is not grounds for dismissing the disorder. It's hell to live with. What an outrageous statement made by that "doctor".
Purple(he is my random personality and my kindness and my pervieness one too and my hungry one), Karin(she is another fighting personality although she is nice that is until someone pisses her off she is a ninja), Haku(he is a water demon he is nice though)
Yin( she is my science smart personality), Kyori(she is my curage personality and so is Azuri i forgot to add that in her), Lilly(she is my scardy cat personality she doesnt like to go anywhere by herself), Satsuki(she is my vampire personality my calm one), Ai,(she is my fighting personality she is a samari) Karasu(she is my book smart personality and the goodie too shoes), Violet(she is another smart one of my personalities)
Lets its i have MPD too and i have Zina (she is an Irken and yes i know wat ur thinking that she isnt a personality bc she is from IZ but heh that is where u r wrong personalities can be turned into OCs and thats wat i did she is like my smart one but can be stupid too), Zara(she is human/Irken she is Zina's Daughter, Zara is my lazy personality), Azuri(she is Zina's 2nd daughter and she is a mager bitch she is my anger personality)
Dude! A lot of people with DID knew they had it before therapy! How did they know? Gee, I dunno, maybe the people in their head told them?
Seriously, why does everyone assume we have to be disfunctional? We're real. We came into being to help the original child cope. We're not evil, not fake, not hallucinations. We've been through hell and back, but, because we're we, we survived. and we will continue to do so, haters or no haters.
@avrilrockstheworld10 I agree, we're not all evil, nor are we all hallucinations, personally we believe that if the body is a temple for the soul, then its only natural that some people such as "me" harbor more than one soul... we've lived for a good while and only a few people could figure out about us and thats only after they figured out our past... or after they watch me for a while and hear me growling in my room that we occasionally lock ourselves in when it becomes to dangerous for us
@avrilrockstheworld10 by dangerous for us I mean everyone, and thats only one of us... the rest of us can be violent or mean, but so can anybody else.. we all have our own likes and dislikes, some have accents some don't, and we all percieve things differently, and can get into arguments with eachother, lol especially charlie and donovan..and sometimes it gets to loud inside, like a school cafeteria, so we try to sleep it off... people like that doctor and the media is why we'll never get help
@kadeemtheking I know, right? Exactly! And what about the different medical conditions? Or appearance, blood pressure, ect. People who deny DID are the ones looking for attention, not us. They just want controversy. Those with DID are just trying to survive.
@avrilrockstheworld10 This is the dumbest comment I've ever read. If you're seriously asking "How did [sufferers of DID] know [they housed multiple personalities], you're negating the whole point of MPD--if you're aware of the other personalities, you're not housing exclusive personalities in your head--they cross-over = it's the SAME CONSCIOUSNESS choosing to live within one set of social parameters. If you're telling me you aren't dysfunctional, you're the textbook definition of the word.
@avrilrockstheworld10 Here's why most medical doctors and therapists discount the disorder. 1. You know, if the medical community in general gave any validation at all to DID, it would be society would have to face the fact that children are being neglected and abused in such awful ways. 2. Being plural flights directly into the face of everything past psychologist, medical professionals and scholars have taught us about 'ego' and 'self' and what constitutes the 'mind'.
1. That's what I hate most, to be honest. That the reason so many people fight this being real is because they don't want to admit what happens. They don't want to admit that they're allowing something to continue by remaining silent!
4. Very true... Man, people are awful sometimes. D:
Respond to this video... 3.DID is not some tidy little disease or disorder big pharma can develop a drug to throw at people, get people addicted and ladle people with the additional side effects that said drugs have. 4. Quite simply, there aren't any big bucks to be had by dealing/treating people with DID...unless said physician or therapist writes a book about the disorder. Not many do though due to not wanting to be ridiculed by colleagues.
i was diingnosed with mpd when i was 10 i have 2 one is mean/rude whos name is nick and i have something u could call a gate keeper whos name is jaysonhe comes out when something need to be fixed when nick or i mess something up and it is not fun
I have had DID or MPD, what ever you wanna call. And got diagnosed 12 years ago. I know for a fact I have 4 or more personalities, and sometimes they switch without me knowing it, but most times I know when it switches. It can be hard but there is medicine, and it helps me everyday. I have no idea what I would do without them. But when "scientists" goes "It's not real" It PISSES ME OFF!! It's very real and it is very hard dealing with the fact that you have more than one personality!
It is real...I have been trying to heal since 1989. No, I don't act like the "movies". Hollywood is the one that puts us in "Oz". WE ARE NOT FAKE. How do you know unless you walk in our shoes? And I don't go any place trying to "engage in attention seeking behaviour". Some doctors and therapist did instill 'false memories' in their patients...so why are you blaming us for their abuse. People need to try to understand how much pain we go through every day. It is not FUN or ENJOYABLE.
There are many in society who do not believe in DID. But in my mind there is a logical reason for this and that is that DID is far more secretive than sociopathic behavior. And in fact DIDs themselves are unable to communicate due to a phenomenal symptom which confuses their thinking and speech and so it's hard for them to tell their stories clearly. Well, those who do not believe in DID have a better chance of finding a psychopath in their neighborhood than ever finding a DID.
Every psychiatric disorder must have a biological foundation because the mind is a product of the brain.
In Schizophrenia we find a disordering of cells in the temporal lobe and a genetic component.
Bipolar Disorder we see a genetic component and problems with nuerotransmitters.
However, in MPD and DID we see nothing. "Multiple personalities" in a brain that evolved for 4 billion years to contain just one, and not a single physical or chemical difference.
Sorry, that is not only incorrect but impossible. An MRI is Magnetic Resonance Imaging. It is a 3 dimensional equivilent of an x-ray. It reveals structures not activity.
What you are thinking of is a PET Scan, Positron Emisson Temography, which does show activity.
PET Scans of MPD/DID's reveal increased activity in the frontal and temporal lobes when exhibiting "alters", but none in the amygdala. That indicates that they are confabulating, acting the role of an alter personality.
@Waltham1892 Reporting affective content and the amygdala not being involved would indicate a typical occurrence of dissociation of affect and reflective content.
1. The "atlers" are supposed to be the repositories of emotional content, so why is the amygdala dark? Dissociation is cognative but amygdala activation is automatic. Its akin to willing your kidneys to shut down.
2. When non-MPD's are asked to confabulate you see the same pattern of activation. You have to think and remember to confabulate, but not feel.
MPD's and BPD's engaging in attention seeking, it fits the diagnostic criteria perfectly.
Multiple Personality Disorder is very openly regarded as a false condition. Pick up a textbook, it's called "Soap Opera Syndrome." Nobody has it, it's a fake affliction.
@avrilrockstheworld10 Great, you've found Dissociative Identity Disorder printed in a book, well done--doesn't make it real. Christians toss around terms like "intelligent design;" doesn't mean much. The legitimacy of MPD has been debated for centuries. I know enough about the subject to confidently say it's bullshit. Nobody, in the history of the world, has ever suffered from MPD; not one person.
@avrilrockstheworld10 And please don't get me wrong, 'cause I'm not trying to pick a fight or make you feel stupid, but honestly, MPD doesn't exist. Anyone claiming to suffer from MPD has deeper issues than housing multiple, exclusive, personalities.
thesee alters are just regression to early selves- sealed off b/c of unbearable memories-most people in this culture have FAKE FRONTS defending the self- cia and army always used and refined methods- war/drug lords DEPEND on soldiers/spies to OBEY and FORGET- then lock them 4 ever when they break down-see 7 days of condor and mad dogs-institutionalized ex-CIA/black-op soldiers- see book cathy o brien and duncan o finioan utube- talk to war veterans and cia agents
The second Doc is a dumb ass I live with my wife with it its real. I could just punch the guy out. Lets have him go through what they had deal with to end up like that.The mind is a very complicated and fascinating.We have yet to know everything about it.
Dr. Paul McHugh is completely wrong, but I can understand, without experiencing it first hand, it would be hard to believe for some. I have both experience and a degree and the truth still remains the truth...
Wow great piece! It's real..I had a few days that I barley remember like it was a dream.( No drugs or alcohol involved) I woke up with a black eye in a psych ward like wdf just happened. I was expecting to wake up in my bed from a weird dream but once I realized I wasn't in a dream inside of a dream...they let me out shortly after I became myself again.
Yes I was abandoned and abused by my parents all my life.
That is the reason for all problems in the world..bad parenting.
Also, the DSM does not base it's findings and disorders on hear-say. They have to be proven to be put in; it's no wonder that doctor was a "former" head, they obviously know he's no longer up to par as a psychologist.
3:05 Complete BS. I disagree that a possible "million" have this disorder; recent research shows low thousands possible at most, but to say it's not real is not only inaccurate but delusional itself. I encountered someone, a friend, who undoubtably had the disorder (met every critera in the DSM-IV), and had never heard of the disorder beforehand.
DID is not a theory. That's why they put it in the DSM.
Who let that crackpot get a degree? Probably an online one.
I have d.i.d. It is not fun. It is not cool. It is a pain in the ass. When I switch I am not aware of it. It is very disturbing to have people come up to you and expect you to apoligize for something you said or did and not remember doing it. Please dont pick on it though as it is the brains way of copeing. As a kid I went through sexual abuse, physical abuse and mental abuse and this is my brains way of copeing.
What about multiples who do not seek psychological therapy due to, say, not wanting it for various reasons or being too poor? What would McHugh say about that? No one has ever 'encouraged' us to be ourselves.
These Dr.s are quaks, how dare they suggest that there is more than one person in any individual. This topic was started solely for amusement and money, after their through experimenting on people with drugs and mind games the price to pay will be far to great. Stay away from them and find a hobby.
@DeniseMatteau Those with DID can't always remember what their alters did, nor can they control what their alters are doing. With DID, there is a mental disconect between the various personalities, where as those without DID are always in charge of what they are doing.
Because of a movie? what an idiot. You can tell this doctor is one of those who know nothing and studied 50 years ago and has many of his own issues which resolves with anger.
Its how people feel, help them asshole.

I'd love to meet that Dr. McCue and show him my journals. I only found out there was a name for my issues about two years ago. I started researching PTSD which matched many of my symptoms, then eventually realized there were some symptoms that went beyond the description of PTSD. I came up with what I thought was a novel theory... That the personality might fragment so that different parts held different memories, reactions, talents, etc. Turns out I was right, but it wasn't a new idea.

@Revengeancer Having a degree in abnormal psychology, actually called psychopathology doesn't settle the debate over DID. Your opinion is just that. There are people on both sides of the argument.
It's possible that people with DID might not have truly distinct personalities but traits that make them behave in drastically different ways in which they name as alters. Or, it could be true. The brain is incredibly complex, I would not write off the possibility of it happening.

WOAH WOAH WOAH Calm down you two. One, while I do acknowledge that D.I.D is a disorder and is very much real, there are several holes in your logic, or at least how you are able to communicate with your alters avril. Paraphrasing an entry from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (Otherwise known as DSM), one with D.I.D should not be able to directly communicate with their "alters", as this would, in theory, allow memories to trickle down.
ZeroKaziyama 4 months ago
Not only that, but as a person who has D.I.D, I should know. The only way my alter and I can communicate (yes, I only have one other persona) is through indirect contact, AKA notes, memos, voice recordings, etc. I have had D.I.D for the past 10-12 years, so I know the deal. As for Revengeancer, please respect the opinions of others. As a person living with this disorder, it is very heard to deal with life everyday. But I do admit you have a point with the bleeding over effect.

If Avril is able to communicate to his alters through mental conversation, well not only would he be a Medical/Psychological first, but it would disprove certain theories about the Disorder itself.

ZeroKaziyama 4 months ago
@ZeroKaziyama I'm genuinely curious to know more about what's going at your end. If you exchange messages with your alter, it shows that you do not want your personalities to be completely separated, but usually one personality is supposedly "born" as a defense mechanism. Inherently, this means that the original personality typically does not wish to communicate with or acknowledge the second, created as a means of escaping the adverse conditions (abuse, trauma, etc...) that engendered it.
Revengeancer 4 months ago
@Revengeancer Sorry about the late reply. I do exchange messages with my alter, and the only reason I do is because I AM aware of his existence. True, my alter was born as a defense mechanism because of traumatic bullying experiences of my past. The reason we exchange messages is that, at times, I lose awareness of my surroundings when I "change", and I need to know where I have been and what has happened to me. Yes, I want myself to be whole again, but I don't really have much of a choice.
ZeroKaziyama 3 months ago
@Revengeancer However, there would be no sense in refusing to acknowledge what I have. At first my alter, named Kage, refused contact with me, fearing that the memories he was holding back would bleed over into my consciousness, where they belong anyway. However it soon proved that he acts as a sort of floodgate, stopping me from being able to access these memories. It's quite the interesting mechanism really. We don't necessarily exchange messages to holds chats per say, but as a necessity.

They also think that the "switch" is sparked by me being alone or being in an unconfortable situation. Might I have the disorder?

@ZeroKaziyama Hi. I've been diagnosed with DID as well and some of us have co-consciousness which does allow us to communicate with each other. I usually get no memory trickle down. There are others who cannot hear each other or see each other. They communicate through a middleman, sort of speak. To get the information to them, we will tell one of the alters who can speak and see them. me, personally, I've only been able to speak directly with a few of the alters.

Revengeancer 4 months ago
@Revengeancer I don't mind speaking about it. People need to know how the process works. My shifts occur as a result of anger. Extreme anger, or when my life is in danger, as these situations are very similar to the day I "snapped" and my alter was fully formed. Long story short: I was being beaten and bullied as a child, to the point of being sent to the hospital for broken ribs. One day they beat me even worse and were calling me names. The last thing I remember is a laugh.
ZeroKaziyama 3 months ago
@Revengeancer However this laugh was mine... But it wasn't. It was different. Darker, more full bodied and as my friends described it: "evil". Next thing I remember I was standing, my friends staring at me in shock. I looked around and my bullies (6-7 of them I think) were on the ground, bloodied and beaten. They were taken to the hospital for broken ribs, arms, legs and I think one had a fractured shoulder blade and another had a broken jaw. My fists were peeled and bloody.

ZeroKaziyama 3 months ago
@Revengeancer Of course, I was arrested, but let go on self-defense (I thank the security cameras that were recording for that). So, to reiterate, points of extreme anger like I felt that day, or when I am in danger, cause my switch, and cause my alter to take over. He, to describe him, is pure id. No ego, no superego. His sole purpose is to keep me alive and to protect me. And apparently he has a physical effect on me as well. Something I've come to call the "Hulk effect".

Actually, communication between alters is natural. Think of it this way. Do you know about integration? That is when two alters become one person again. This isn't a quick process. It occurs by gradual blending of the selves. For this to happen, communication with alters is needed.
It's all one brain. Is it really that hard to see how the parts of it would be able to communicate?
But we communicate on their terms. I can hear what they say, but no, I can't read their mind.
avrilrockstheworld10 4 months ago
@avrilrockstheworld10 I am well aware of integration, yes. And I agree it is all one mind. Are you saying that your alter(s) control how you are able to interact with them? THAT, I believe is proper with the medical definition. And I agree that for integration to occur there has to be communication. I'm not sure exactly why I am not able to simply hear my alter's voice or thoughts. Maybe it's just how my mind works. Then again, D.I.D is unique for every single person.
ZeroKaziyama 3 months ago
@ZeroKaziyama Yes. I couldn't just call them to front... well, I could, but it's just as likely they would ignore me. We interact on their terms, for the most part.
Communication levels seem to rely on whether or not it was safe for the alters to talk to the child during the abuse. For example, if, in an abusive family, alters had to communicate to make sure the right alter could defend against parents, this would increase communication levels.
Yes, exactly. :)

Occasionally, if I'm really close to someone, then I might be able to feel their fear from a flashback, but the actual flashback doesn't leak to me. The barriers between us are too strong for that.
Besides, to overcome the PTSD, one needs to have the memories. Memories being shared between alters is a sign of healing. While alters don't want you to remember, above all, they want you to be safe and heal.

They are nothing of the sort.

As DID is a trauma born, not created by abnormal brain chemistry, the way it applies to everyone with it is unique.

@avrilrockstheworld10 I love how you're trying to spin this around like I'm the one with a problem. No, the fact is, I've studied DID enough to know it doesn't exist. It's called Soap Opera Syndrome for that very reason. You're upset because I'm calling you out, but the fact is, you have no way of defending something that isn't real. I, on the other hand, can. I get upset when I encounter people like you because you're abusing information to suit your own needs. You should be ashamed.

@Revengeancer Trolling on Youtube videos does tend to mean one has a problem, yeah.
We're studying to be psych. We have been studying DID for the past few years. We've been formally diagnosed and know others who have recieved the same diangosis
It's in the DSM-V for a reason. The only other thing Dissociative Identity Disorder has ever been called was Multiple Personality Disorder.
Upset? No, actually. You're amusing us. I like debating, and if it spreads awareness, I'm all for it!
avrilrockstheworld10 5 months ago
@Revengeancer I should be ashamed that I was abused by my grandfather until I had multiple personalities? Or do you just mean that I should be ashamed I want to spread awareness in any way possible, even if that means debating in the comments of a Youtube video?
It's real. End of story.

@avrilrockstheworld10 Part of me pities you, and a larger part is pissed off at the audacity you have to claim that you house multiple exclusive personalities inside yourself. You're an emotional parasite, and I'm sure that those who know you personally suffer for it every day of their lives.
Revengeancer 5 months ago
@Revengeancer I have DID. I was diagnosed. I have been living with this disorder since I was two years old, when the abuse began. I suffer from PTSD and Panic Disorder as well. The alters are the reason I'm still alive.
Emotional parasite? Haha, I wish. It would mean I would be using others, instead of being the one constantly having to play therapist to every dang person we know.
Haha, I doubt it. Like I said, we want to be a therapist so we can help others. We don't hurt anyone.

@avrilrockstheworld10 I think it's painfully clear that you are a very lonely person to pretend to suffer as you do. No two-year-old in the world has ever been diagnosed with DID. At this point, I realize that you're so deep into your delusion that you won't admit that you're a pathological liar. Seriously, good luck with that. You can say whatever you want to make yourself feel better, but you have to live with that. --And you're really referring to yourself as "we?" Pathetic.

@Revengeancer Actually, I have plenty of friends, thankyouverymuch. And I fail to see why that would affect my trying to educate the public.
Actually, while I can't tell you if any children of age two have been diagnosed, there are definitely children who were diagnosed. There's even a specific criteria in the DSM relating to age:
From the DSM: In children, the symptoms are not attributable to imaginary playmates or other fantasy play.
So your argument is invalid. Yes, DID affects kids.

@avrilrockstheworld10 We can keep doing this "yes-huh/nuh-uh" argument, but like I said before, you know the truth. You know well that you do not house multiple exclusive personalities inside your psyche. I've literally had to deal with folks like you in both my internships and career, and I just feel sorry for you. You will never admit that you're lying--you need the attention that badly. I sincerely hope you come to terms with that someday.

@Revengeancer Actually, I was diagnosed with DID. No one has ever, in my entire life, suggested that I am a pathological liar. I may occasionally lie, but no more than your average person, I would think.
I have to live with the DID, yes. And it affects me everyday. And there's really nothing I can do about that at the moment.
I refer to ourselves as "we" when I am talking about something that more than one of us agree on, yes. It would be rude to do otherwise.

@Revengeancer Oh, living with PTSD isn't fun at all, I'll admit. But the DID helps me handle it. Most of the time. Admitedly, sometimes, it's the DID that's the problem. But the alters saved my life. I respect them for that.
Do we both know the truth? I'm actually starting to think you seriously believe I'm lying. Weird. Could have sworn you were a troll. :S

@avrilrockstheworld10 The very fact that you can pretend to converse with your "alters" shows that they are not exclusive personalities, that they bleed over, and that is not what MPD posits to be. There's nothing that I can say that you won't counter with a pretend truth that I can't counter with an actual truth that you won't counter with another delusion. The only thing to do is to let you play out your fantasy, knowing that I don't have to actually deal with you.

I don't even know where to begin with those who don't believe DID exists. Attention seeking? Are you kidding me? I suffered in silence and isolation in order to hide it for decades. Maybe there are doctors who have done horrible things like unnecessary surgeries, amputated the wrong limb, and/or misdiagnosed a patient with DID? That is not grounds for dismissing the disorder. It's hell to live with. What an outrageous statement made by that "doctor".

Seriously, why does everyone assume we have to be disfunctional? We're real. We came into being to help the original child cope. We're not evil, not fake, not hallucinations. We've been through hell and back, but, because we're we, we survived. and we will continue to do so, haters or no haters.

@avrilrockstheworld10 Here's why most medical doctors and therapists discount the disorder. 1. You know, if the medical community in general gave any validation at all to DID, it would be society would have to face the fact that children are being neglected and abused in such awful ways. 2. Being plural flights directly into the face of everything past psychologist, medical professionals and scholars have taught us about 'ego' and 'self' and what constitutes the 'mind'.

Respond to this video... 3.DID is not some tidy little disease or disorder big pharma can develop a drug to throw at people, get people addicted and ladle people with the additional side effects that said drugs have. 4. Quite simply, there aren't any big bucks to be had by dealing/treating people with DID...unless said physician or therapist writes a book about the disorder. Not many do though due to not wanting to be ridiculed by colleagues.

I have had DID or MPD, what ever you wanna call. And got diagnosed 12 years ago. I know for a fact I have 4 or more personalities, and sometimes they switch without me knowing it, but most times I know when it switches. It can be hard but there is medicine, and it helps me everyday. I have no idea what I would do without them. But when "scientists" goes "It's not real" It PISSES ME OFF!! It's very real and it is very hard dealing with the fact that you have more than one personality!

There are many in society who do not believe in DID. But in my mind there is a logical reason for this and that is that DID is far more secretive than sociopathic behavior. And in fact DIDs themselves are unable to communicate due to a phenomenal symptom which confuses their thinking and speech and so it's hard for them to tell their stories clearly. Well, those who do not believe in DID have a better chance of finding a psychopath in their neighborhood than ever finding a DID.

Every psychiatric disorder must have a biological foundation because the mind is a product of the brain.
In Schizophrenia we find a disordering of cells in the temporal lobe and a genetic component.
Bipolar Disorder we see a genetic component and problems with nuerotransmitters.
However, in MPD and DID we see nothing. "Multiple personalities" in a brain that evolved for 4 billion years to contain just one, and not a single physical or chemical difference.
Time to move on...

@Waltham1892 You are wrong. MRI's show different activity for different personalities.
2itubetoo2 11 months ago
Sorry, that is not only incorrect but impossible. An MRI is Magnetic Resonance Imaging. It is a 3 dimensional equivilent of an x-ray. It reveals structures not activity.
What you are thinking of is a PET Scan, Positron Emisson Temography, which does show activity.
PET Scans of MPD/DID's reveal increased activity in the frontal and temporal lobes when exhibiting "alters", but none in the amygdala. That indicates that they are confabulating, acting the role of an alter personality.
Waltham1892 11 months ago
@Waltham1892 So you are implying that everything that happens in the frontal and temporal lobes is confabulation?
2itubetoo2 11 months ago
When someone reports affective content and the amygdala doesn't light up, yes, they are confabulating.
Waltham1892 11 months ago
@Waltham1892 Reporting affective content and the amygdala not being involved would indicate a typical occurrence of dissociation of affect and reflective content.
2itubetoo2 11 months ago
That would be true but for two points:
1. The "atlers" are supposed to be the repositories of emotional content, so why is the amygdala dark? Dissociation is cognative but amygdala activation is automatic. Its akin to willing your kidneys to shut down.
2. When non-MPD's are asked to confabulate you see the same pattern of activation. You have to think and remember to confabulate, but not feel.
MPD's and BPD's engaging in attention seeking, it fits the diagnostic criteria perfectly.
