Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) is a psychiatric diagnosis where a person displays multiple distinct identities or personalities, each with their own memories and patterns of behavior. DID is caused by severe childhood trauma like abuse and neglect. The child dissociates or splits their identity as a coping mechanism. Symptoms include memory loss, depression, hallucinations, and an inability to account for certain events. Treatment focuses on psychotherapy to help integrate the different personalities. DID is difficult to treat and prognosis depends on comorbid conditions and ability to remove oneself from abusive situations.

Dissociative Disorders, Somatoform and Related Disorders
Dissociative disorders involve disruptions or breakdowns in memory, awareness, identity or perception. The main dissociative disorders discussed are Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly called Multiple Personality Disorder), Dissociative Amnesia, and Depersonalization/Derealization Disorder. Somatic symptom and related disorders involve physical symptoms that have no medical explanation and cause significant distress or impairment. The main types discussed are Illness Anxiety Disorder, Conversion Disorder, Psychological Factors Affecting Other Medical Conditions, and Factitious Disorder.
Period 7 - Min Zheng - Dissociative Identity Disorder
Dissociative identity disorder (DID), also known as multiple personality disorder, involves a person having two or more distinct personalities or alter egos. It is typically caused by severe trauma experienced as a child, such as abuse. While there is no cure for DID, treatment involves therapy to help manage the different personalities and integrate them. Living with DID can be difficult for patients and their families and present challenges in social and work environments. More research is still needed to fully understand and address the disorder.

What is a dissociative disorder power point composition ll lab
The document discusses dissociative identity disorder (DID), formerly known as multiple personality disorder. It notes that unlike popular portrayals, most people with DID work hard to hide the disorder and function well in daily life and jobs. However, subjects are at risk for substance abuse and relationship problems if abusive behavior is present. People with DID also commonly have other mental health issues like depression, PTSD, and self-harming behaviors. While dissociation is an effective survival technique, habitual use of it can lead to dysfunction even after traumatic events end.
Dissociative Disorder (DSM)
The document discusses dissociative disorders as outlined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). It describes the four main dissociative disorders: dissociative amnesia, dissociative fugue, dissociative identity disorder, and depersonalization disorder. Treatment typically involves psychotherapy approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy. While medication cannot directly treat dissociative disorders, it may help manage related symptoms of anxiety or depression.
Dissociative disorder
Dissociation refers to feeling disconnected from one's environment or self. Those with dissociative disorders experience persistent episodes of dissociation that severely impact daily life. The four main types of dissociative disorders are dissociative amnesia, dissociative fugue, depersonalization disorder, and dissociative identity disorder. Treatment for dissociative disorders typically involves psychotherapy and managing stress, as childhood trauma is a main underlying cause. Diagnosis can be difficult due to overlapping symptoms with other mental health conditions.
Multiple personality disorders-prof. fareed minhas
Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD), now called Dissociative Identity Disorder, is characterized by at least one alternate personality that controls behavior. It is thought to be caused by extreme childhood trauma as a survival mechanism. Symptoms include loss of time, different manners or voices, mood shifts, and forgetfulness. Treatment aims to integrate the personalities through psychotherapy and sometimes hypnosis, as medications alone are usually not effective.

Dissociative symptoms include amnesia and feelings of detachment from oneself or one's surroundings. Dissociative disorders are often caused by trauma, especially childhood abuse. Treatment focuses on psychotherapy and managing symptoms. Amnesia specifically refers to the inability to recall important information, especially of a traumatic nature. Its causes include brain damage and it has no cure, only management of symptoms and quality of life. Depersonalization disorder involves persistent feelings of detachment from oneself and surroundings. Its causes are thought to be related to brain imbalances triggered by trauma. Treatment focuses on medications for associated symptoms and psychotherapy.
Dissociative identity disorder powerpoint townsend
Dissociative identity disorder (DID), also known as multiple personality disorder, is a condition characterized by two or more distinct personalities or identities that control a person's behavior. The personalities are called alters and each has their own way of interacting. To be diagnosed with DID, a person must experience memory loss beyond normal forgetfulness and have at least two personalities routinely take control of their behavior. There are several approaches to explaining and understanding DID, including that it develops as a defense mechanism for children experiencing trauma, like abuse, and that each alter has their own traits and way of responding to situations. However, there is no consensus on the cause and effective treatments are still being explored.

Self Image And Bipolar Depression[1]
This document examines how self-image is affected in individuals with bipolar depression. It discusses that those with the disorder may feel inadequate in areas like school, work, and relationships. Their self-esteem can fluctuate between feelings of grandiosity during manic episodes and low self-esteem during depressive episodes. Treatment methods like individual therapy and medication management can help improve self-image and mood stability. Regular counseling can aid in dealing with emotions, and medication can assist with mood challenges and decrease repeat episodes. Rebuilding self-worth after diagnosis can impact one's self-image and mood long-term.
DISSOCIATIVE IDENTITY DISORDER
Dissociative disorders (DD) are conditions that involve disruptions or breakdowns of memory, awareness, identity, or perception.
People with dissociative disorders use dissociation, a defence mechanism, pathologically and involuntarily. Dissociative disorders are thought to primarily be caused by psychological trauma.
Dissociative disorder
Dissociative disorders are characterized by a disconnection from reality through dissociative symptoms like detachment from one's body or loss of memory. The three main types are dissociative identity disorder, dissociative amnesia, and depersonalization/derealization disorder. Treatment involves psychotherapies like CBT and EMDR as well as medications which can help manage related conditions. While difficult to treat, dissociative disorders can be managed through therapy and coping strategies.
Social Phobia
Social Phobia, also called Social Anxiety Disorder, is characterized by an intense fear of experiencing humiliation in social situations.
Dissociative Identity Disorder
Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), previously known as Multiple Personality Disorder, involves two or more distinct personality states that control a person's behavior at different times. People with DID experience memory lapses and may have alters with differing traits. DID is believed to develop from childhood abuse experiences that cause dissociation as a coping mechanism. Treatment focuses on psychotherapy to help integrate the alters into a single personality.
Dissociative identity disorder
Dissociative identity disorder (DID), formerly known as multiple personality disorder, is characterized by distinct personality states called alters that repeatedly take control of one's behavior. It is caused by extremely traumatic childhood abuse and develops as a coping mechanism. People with DID can have as few as two or as many as hundreds of distinct alters. Treatment involves psychotherapy to help alters communicate and integrate their identities. However, the validity of DID remains controversial due to concerns over misdiagnosis and the influence of therapists. Famous cases like The Three Faces of Eve and Sybil brought attention to the disorder.

The role of mindset in design thinking: Implications for capability developme...
Presentation for Design for Business: Research conference, 12-13 May 2015, Melbourne, Victoria. Part of Melbourne International Design Week 2015.
Paper abstract:
Design thinking continues to be an emergent field as it pertains to business. In building design thinking capability in organizations the current focus is on design skills and tools, rather than mindset. This imbalance toward design process, methods and tools is also present within design thinking and design research literature. Mindset is little acknowledged.
The purpose of this paper is to investigate and articulate the role of mindset within design thinking capability and practice. Mindset is the perspective that informs how a person approaches and interacts in the world (Nelson & Stolterman 2013). Where mindset is acknowledged as a critical underpinning for design thinking in the literature, it is usually presented as guiding principles for design doing. There is little insight into what the different mindsets are, how to develop or enact them, or how mindset impacts on practice. Mindset remains underexplored in discussions of design competency and maturity.
By analysing qualitative data collected across three studies of a doctoral research project exploring the composition of design thinking in practice, two mindsets emerged. These were: design thinking as a way of work and design thinking as a way of life. Design thinking as a way of work is focused on the process of design thinking with the primary purpose of designing for outputs and innovation. Design thinking as a way of life is a holistic view of design thinking where the focus is on designing for transformation and creating positive change. These mindsets are scalable, applicable to an individual or organization.
The two mindsets, when mapped against competencies in design knowledge, skills and tools, contribute a framework to explore maturity in design thinking. Understanding the maturity framework, and the role of mindset within it, has implications for how an individual and organization can build capability in design thinking and maximise outcomes in the environment in which they are designing.

Psych project
Dissociative identity disorder (DID), formerly known as multiple personality disorder, is a condition where a person has two or more distinct identities or personality states that recurrently take control of their behavior. It is caused by severe trauma, often sexual abuse at a young age, that the mind copes with by dissociating. People with DID experience amnesia, mood changes, anxiety, and other symptoms. Treatment involves identifying the different identities, building a relationship with each, and processing the underlying trauma.
Psychological Disorders
The document discusses psychological disorders from multiple perspectives. It begins by outlining what topics will be covered, including defining and classifying disorders, specific disorders like anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and schizophrenia. It then discusses reasons for learning about psychological disorders and different perspectives on defining and understanding disorders. Key concepts covered include the medical model of disorders, biopsychosocial approaches, diagnosing and classifying disorders using the DSM, and critiques of diagnosis and labeling. Specific anxiety disorders like generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, phobias, and obsessive-compulsive disorder are explained. The nature of mood disorders like major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder are also outlined.
YHM 2009 David K
The document discusses psychotic disorders and provides guidance on responding to someone experiencing psychosis. It defines psychosis and lists common symptoms involving changes in emotion, thinking, perception and behavior. Early intervention is important to reduce negative long-term impacts. The main steps outlined are to assess safety risks, listen without judgment, provide reassurance and encourage seeking professional help. Self-help strategies and local support services are also recommended.
Alternative final
Dissociative identity disorder (DID), previously known as multiple personality disorder, is a severe condition characterized by two or more distinct identities or personality states that alternately take control of an individual's behavior accompanied by memory loss. It results from extreme and repeated childhood trauma such as emotional, physical, or sexual abuse. Symptoms include impulsivity, mood swings, anxiety, and amnesia. While there is no medical test, diagnosis involves evaluating symptoms and medical history to rule out other causes. Treatment focuses on psychotherapy but the disorder cannot be cured. People with DID are also at risk for suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, and repeated victimization.
DISSOCIATIVE DISORDERS
The document discusses dissociative disorders, specifically focusing on dissociative amnesia. It defines dissociative amnesia as an inability to recall important autobiographical information, usually of a traumatic or stressful nature. Dissociative amnesia can involve localized, selective, or generalized memory loss and may involve dissociative fugue, which is purposeful wandering associated with amnesia. The causes are often traumatic events such as abuse, and it is differentiated from other conditions by intact reality testing and the context of the memory loss. Treatment involves various forms of psychotherapy.
ASN 215: Mental Health/Mental Illness
The document discusses influences on mental health and illness. It defines mental health as optimal functioning and mental illness as functional impairment. Cultural factors can impact how individuals view and experience mental illness. Prolonged stress can lead to physical and psychological responses like anxiety, defense mechanisms, and potentially psychosis. Diagnosis of mental illness involves using the DSM system across five axes. Treating mental illness faces challenges like stigma, access to care, and cost issues.

What Are Personality Disorders.doc
Paranoid personality disorder is a chronic condition characterized by pervasive distrust and suspiciousness of others. It affects 1-4% of adults and can cause significant distress through disruptive patterns of thinking and relating. Symptoms include chronic suspicions of exploitation by others and feelings of being deceived. Both genetic and childhood trauma factors may contribute to its development, and it is typically treated with cognitive behavioral therapy to modify distorted thoughts and improve relationships and functioning.
Unit 4
The document discusses the classification and assessment of abnormal behavior. It provides information on how abnormal behavior is classified in the DSM manual. The DSM recognizes mental disorders as involving emotional distress, impaired functioning, or risky behavior. It also classifies generalized anxiety disorder and provides its diagnostic criteria and treatment options. The document explains the different axes of the DSM classification system.
Multiple personalities
Multiple Personalities
Multiple Personalities
Multiple personalities is a rare mental disorder in which an individual's personality appears to be separated by two or more specific personalities, all being connectable to that of a normal individual.
Incidence
Statistics show that the rate of DID occurrences are roughly .01% to 1% of the general population.
-More than 1/3 of people say that they feel as if they are watching themselves in a movie at times, and 7% of the population may have undiagnosed dissociative disorder.
Causes
The causes of multiple personalities disorder is controversial. The debate of many different hypothesis include:
-Could possibly be a reaction to a trauma.
-An innate ability to dissociate easily.
-Repeated episodes of severe physical or sexual abuse
as a child.
-The lack of supportive or comforting people to counteract
abusive relationships.
-The influence of other relatives with dissociative
symptoms or disorders.
Symptoms
According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, symptoms include "the presence or two or more distinct identities or personality traits"that alternate control of the individuals behavior, accompanied by the inability to recall personal information beyond what is expected through normal forgetfulness.
-Amnesia
-Depersonalization
-Derealization
-Identity Disturbances
Diagnosis
There is not real way to determine whether or not a person has DID. Many physicians have different outlooks on what DID is and what determines if a patient has the disorder or not. Most are misdiagnosed as depressed. But the average DID patient is in the mental health care system for 6 to 7 years before being diagnosed as a person with DID.
-The criteria, according to the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, require that an adult be recurrently controlled by two or more discrete personalities, accompanied my memory lapses for important information that is not caused by alcohol, drugs, or medications.

anxiety disorders ,dissociative disorder
Dissociative disorders involve disruptions or breakdowns of memory, awareness, identity, or perception as a defense mechanism against trauma. The document defines and describes several types of dissociative disorders including dissociative amnesia, dissociative fugue, depersonalization disorder, dissociative identity disorder, conversion disorder, and others. Childhood trauma is a major underlying cause, and the severity of dissociative disorders is often related to the severity of past trauma. Diagnosis involves ruling out other factors and using assessment scales, while treatment commonly involves psychotherapy and managing stress in a safe environment.

Dissociative disorders
This document discusses dissociative disorders including dissociative amnesia, dissociative fugue, depersonalization disorder, and dissociative identity disorder. Key points:
- Dissociative disorders involve disruptions in identity, consciousness, and memory not due to substances or medical conditions.
- Dissociative identity disorder, formerly called multiple personality disorder, is characterized by two or more distinct personalities and an inability to recall personal information.
- Dissociative disorders typically develop after childhood trauma like abuse and lack treatment through long-term psychotherapy aimed at integrating personalities and addressing traumatic memories.

Dept. of Mental Health (Psychiatric) Nursing
Institute of Nursing Education
INTRODUCTION
• DSM-IV-TR describes the essential features of dissociative disorders as a disruption in the usually integrated functions of consciousness, memory, identity, or perception (APA 2000).
• Dissociative responses occur when anxiety becomes overwhelming and the personality becomes disorganized.
• Defense mechanisms that normally govern consciousness, identity, and memory breakdown and behavior occur with little or no participation on the part of the conscious personality.
Dissociation:
The unconscious separation of painful feelings and emotions from an unacceptable idea, situation or object.
Dissociative Disorders:
Dissociative disorders are characterized by
Persistent
maladaptive disruptions in the integration of memory
Consciousness or identity—verge on the unbelievable.
• The person with a dissociative disorder may be unable to remember many details about the past; he or she may wander far from home and perhaps assume a new identity; or two or more personalities may coexist within the same person.
• Dissociative disorders once were viewed as expressions of hysteria.
• In Greek, Hystera means “uterus,” and the term hysteria reflects ancient speculation that these disorders were caused by frustrated sexual desires, particularly the desire to have a baby.
• According to the theory, the uterus becomes detached from its normal location and moves about in the body, causing a problem in the location where it eventually lodges.
• Variants of this somewhat sexist view continued throughout Western history, and as late as the nineteenth century many physicians erroneously believed that hysteria occurred only among women.
• New speculation about the etiology of hysteria emerged toward the end of the nineteenth century.
Symptoms of Dissociative Disorders:
• Like many ordinary cognitive processes, the extraordinary symptoms of dissociative disorders apparently involve mental processing that occurs outside of conscious awareness.
1) Extreme cases of dissociation include a split in the functioning of the individual’s entire sense of self.
2) Depersonalization is a less dramatic form of dissociation wherein people feel detached from themselves or their social or physical environment.
3) Another dramatic example of dissociation is amnesia—the partial or complete loss of recall for particular events or for a particular period of time.
4) Brain injury or disease can cause amnesia, but psychogenic (psychologically caused) amnesia results from traumatic stress or other emotional distress.
5) Psychogenic amnesia may occur alone or in conjunction with other dissociative experiences.
• It is widely accepted that fugue and psychogenic amnesia are usually precipitated by trauma, thus providing another link between dissociation and traumatic stress disorders.

Student Work Brittany Tornado
The document discusses the components of air and how uneven heating can lead to the formation of tornadoes. It explains that when air is heated, it rises and becomes less dense, which can cause it to collide with cooler air in a circular motion and create a funnel. Uneven heating from the sun results in warm winds from the equator colliding with cooler winds from the northern hemisphere, forming a funnel that can become a tornado. Cold fronts and warm fronts are identified as playing a role by creating boundaries between air masses that can collide and form the tornado funnel.
Water Cycle
The water cycle describes how water is transferred and changed among the Earth's atmosphere, land and oceans. Water evaporates from bodies of water and transpiration from plants, condenses into clouds and precipitates as rain or snow, running into rivers, lakes and groundwater or being absorbed by plants, completing the cycle. The water cycle involves evaporation, condensation, precipitation, collection and runoff, with about 97% of Earth's water found in oceans and the amount of water on Earth staying constant over time as it changes forms and locations.
Student Work - Diabetes
Diabetes is a disease characterized by high blood sugar levels. There are two main types - type 1 caused by the immune system attacking insulin-producing cells, and type 2 which occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin or the cells ignore insulin. Risk factors include family history, age, weight, and race/ethnicity. Symptoms include excessive thirst, hunger, urination and fatigue. Treatment involves diet, exercise, medication and insulin as needed to control blood sugar levels and prevent short and long term complications affecting organs like the eyes, kidneys and heart. Current research focuses on prediction, prevention and management of diabetes as well as its complications.
Swine Flu
Swine flu is a respiratory disease in pigs caused by influenza A virus that has recently infected humans. It first emerged in Mexico in early 2009 and quickly spread globally in a pandemic. Symptoms are similar to seasonal flu but it can lead to pneumonia or death in some cases. Researchers are working to develop a vaccine and contain its spread through public health measures while learning more about its origins and transmission.
Turners Syndrome
Turner syndrome is a genetic condition that affects development in girls caused by a missing or partial X chromosome. It was first described in 1938 by Dr. Henry Turner. Common characteristics include short stature, ovarian dysfunction leading to infertility, and heart defects. Diagnosis involves chromosome analysis from amniocentesis or blood tests. Treatment may include growth hormone, estrogen therapy, and assisted reproduction. Research continues on treatments and managing associated health problems throughout life.
Student Work Rett Syndrome
Rett syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that affects brain development, primarily in girls. It is caused by mutations in the MECP2 gene and begins with normal development followed by loss of motor and communication skills. Symptoms include loss of speech, hand movements, irregular breathing patterns, and cognitive impairments. While there is no cure, treatment aims to manage symptoms through physical, occupational, and speech therapy. Research continues to study the genes involved to better understand the condition.
Student Work Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a disease where the heart muscle becomes abnormally thickened, making it harder for the heart to pump blood. It is usually inherited and symptoms can include chest pain, shortness of breath, fainting, and palpitations. The condition makes individuals prone to arrhythmias and heart failure. While medications and procedures like implantable defibrillators can help treatment, individuals with a family history of sudden cardiac death are at highest risk of complications from HCM.
Student Work Ectrodactyly
Ectrodactyly-ectodermal dysplasia-cleft syndrome is a rare condition characterized by deformities of the hands and feet (ectrodactyly), abnormalities in skin, hair, teeth and nails (ectodermal dysplasia), and cleft lip and/or palate. It can be caused by genetic mutations and affects development of the ectoderm layer in utero. People with this syndrome may experience physical challenges and social isolation due to the visible differences and associated health issues. There is no cure, but treatment aims to address specific symptoms through surgery, dental care, and managing other ectodermal abnormalities.
Muscle System Class Notes
The document discusses the muscle system, its function, features, and types of muscle tissues. The muscle system provides movement through contraction and relaxation of muscle tissues. There are three main types of muscle tissues - skeletal muscle which moves bones and is voluntarily controlled, smooth muscle found in organs and blood vessels with involuntary control, and cardiac muscle which makes the heart beat involuntarily.

Skeletal System Class Notes
The document discusses the skeletal system, its major functions, parts, and features. The skeletal system contains bones and tissues that provide structure, protect organs, allow for movement, store calcium, and form blood cells. The key parts of the skeletal system are bones, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. Bones have compact and spongy layers and marrow. There are different types of joints like ball-and-socket, pivot, hinge, gliding, and others that enable different motions.
Cells & Levels of Organization
The document discusses different levels of organization in the human body from cells to organ systems. It begins by asking students to list examples of cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, and organisms. It then provides more details on cells as the building blocks of life and examples of cell organelles. The document defines tissues as groups of similar cells, organs as structures made of different tissue types, and organ systems as groups of organs that perform major functions like the integumentary, skeletal, and respiratory systems.
Weather Day 3: Air Pressure, Temperature & Altitude
The document discusses different weather concepts including air pressure, temperature, and altitude. It defines key terms and explores the relationships between altitude, temperature, and air pressure. Students are instructed to complete a lab traveling to four stations to observe these concepts firsthand and answer review questions in full sentences. For homework, students are asked to read the textbook pages, answer the section review questions, and complete three worksheets on weather, the atmosphere, and air pressure.
Weather Day 1
The document provides information about weather terms and atmospheric gases. It lists many words related to weather such as freezing, thunderstorms, and precipitation. It also includes data about the longitude, latitude, and elevation of four cities. Additionally, it outlines the composition of gases in the atmosphere such as nitrogen, oxygen, and water vapor. It notes the importance of the atmosphere in moderating temperature and protecting from harmful rays.
Water Long Version
The document discusses how people use water for agriculture, industry, transportation, recreation, and in homes. It provides statistics on the types and amounts of fresh and salt water on Earth. It describes the structure of water molecules and states of water. It discusses concepts such as density, surface tension, capillary action, and water's properties as a solvent.
Notes - Female Reproductive System
1. The ovaries are the primary female sex organs and produce eggs and hormones.
2. Oogenesis is the process in which eggs are formed in the ovaries from primordial follicles through primary, secondary, and graafian follicles.
3. Other female reproductive organs include the fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, and external genitals that support reproduction and development of offspring.
Student Work Hemophilia
Hemophilia is a genetic bleeding disorder caused by a defect in the genes responsible for blood clotting factors VIII or IX. It is usually inherited and affects boys more than girls. Symptoms include prolonged bleeding after injuries or medical procedures. Treatment involves replacing the missing clotting factor through infusions of donated blood products. Current research is developing new formulations of clotting factors that can be stored at room temperature to improve accessibility.
Student Work Emphysema
Emphysema is a lung disease that damages the air sacs in the lungs called alveoli, reducing the ability to expel air. It is most often caused by cigarette smoking, which damages lung tissues over many years. While there is no cure for emphysema, treatments can help slow its progression by managing symptoms and avoiding further lung damage from smoking or air pollution. Physical exams are used to diagnose emphysema based on a patient's medical history and symptoms like shortness of breath.
Urinary System Notes
The kidneys filter blood to produce urine and are located between vertebrae T12-L3. Each kidney contains an outer cortex where filtering occurs and an inner medulla composed of renal pyramids. Blood enters the kidneys through the renal artery and leaves through the renal vein, undergoing filtration in structures called nephrons. Urine flows from nephrons through collecting ducts into minor calyces, major calyces, the renal pelvis, ureters, bladder, and urethra to exit the body. The ureters are muscular tubes that carry urine from kidneys to bladder. The bladder is a muscular reservoir organ where urine is stored before exiting through the urethra.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Recently uploaded (20)

Student Work - DID
- 1. Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) By: Maya M. - Fatima R. – Antonia B. – El Shanique F.
- 2. What Is It? Apsychiatric diagnosis that describes a condition in which a single person displays multiple distinct identities or personalities (known as alter egos or alters), each with its own pattern of perceiving and interacting with the environment. The diagnosis requires that at least two personalities routinely take control of the individual's behavior with an associated memory loss that goes beyond normal forgetfulness; in addition, symptoms cannot be due to drug use or medical condition. The person with DID may have as few as two alters, or as many as 100. The average number is about 10. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iHJfIH20TY Dissociative Identity Disorder
- 3. Smaller Symptoms Bigger Symptoms Panic Attacks Anxiety Depression Physical Symptoms Posttraumatic stress Sexual Dysfunction Eating Disorders Memory loss Relation towards patient experiencing time lapses Cannot account or recognize certain things (ex: Handwriting) Depersonalization: Derealization May refer to themselves in 1st person Hallucinations Signs and Symptoms
- 4. Causes of (DID) Child Abuse (physically and sexually) Childhood trauma Overwhelming stress Insufficient childhood nurturing
- 6. The memories and feelings go into the subconscious and are experienced later in the form of a separate personality.
- 7. The process happens repeatedly at different times so that different personalities develop, containing different memories and performing different functions that are helpful or destructive.
- 8. Dissociation becomes a coping mechanism for the individual when faced with further stressful situationsIt has been theorized that severe sexual, physical, or psychological trauma in childhood predisposes an individual to the development of DID. The steps in the development of a dissociative identity are theorized to be as follows: Developmental Theory
- 10. DID does not resolve spontaneously, and symptoms vary over time. Individuals with primarily dissociative symptoms and features of posttraumatic stress disorder normally recover with treatment. Those with comorbid addictions, personality, mood, or eating disorders face a longer, slower, and more complicated recovery process. Individuals still attached to abusers face the poorest prognosis; treatment may be long-term and consist solely of symptom relief rather than personality integration. Changes in identity, loss of memory, and awaking in unexplained locations and situations often leads to chaotic personal lives. Individuals with the condition commonly attempt suicide. Prognosis
- 11. For every one man diagnosed with DID, there are eight or nine women. Studies in North America and Europe indicate that as many as 5% of patients in psychiatric wards have undiagnosed DID. Among children, boys and girls diagnosed with DID are pretty closely matched 1:1. Statistics 50% of all psychiatrists deny that it even exists Research has shown that the average age for the initial development of alters is 5-9 years.
