Multiple personality disorder is a rare occurrence, but many people suspect that they have it in themselves or in someone they know.
A split personality is a condition in which a person has two or more completely independent personalities. When one of the personalities seizes control, the other is silent. She is not aware of the actions performed by the body and does not remember them.
People with multiple personalities, obviously, behave completely differently in different situations, as personalities, as a rule, have completely different character, gender and age.
Doctors believe that the main cause of the disorder is violence and stressful situations in childhood and a predisposition to dissociation. Dissociation is a kind of falling out of reality, which can be observed when reading books or watching films, when a keen person does not pay attention to the world around him and this period of time falls out of his memory.
Often, individuals are aggressive both towards the person in which they live and towards the people around them. Therefore, a split personality is very dangerous, often personalities mutilate the body and commit crimes that people, having regained consciousness, do not remember.
Treatment takes place with the help of psychologists who, studying the patient and his personality, find an approach to each of them, persuading them to merge together. Of course, this does not happen often, so a split personality is an almost incurable disease.
