i know more about MPD.
it is also known as spilt personality disorder.
most cases are like this:
a person has more that one personality, like you could feel as if there is more than yourself in your body. the other personality can be completely different to you. example. you might like sport, the other personality might like shopping.
i think it’s like that

I have DID. I would add amnesia for the times that one personality takes over. This is terrifying, as I don’t have a clue as to where I’ve been or what I’ve done during this time. In this particular personality, I don’t eat and rarely sleep. When I travel by airplane, I sit down……and I’m arriving at my destination. A couple of seconds in my brain, but truly hours on the plane. I ‘ve never had bursts of anger. I do sleep walk. I look differently to others in another personality, and I’m told I speak differently.
It’s not fun, it has lots of hurts along the way.

MPD or DID is a condition where the person disassociates with their own identity. This usually happens as the result of sever trauma – typically sexual abuse, physical abuse or even emotional abuse. The condition developes when this abuse is experienced repeatedly over long periods of time.
There is some really good information on the WebMD site. I’ve shared it below.

Check out Dissociative Identity Disorder at http://www.wikipedia.org
A questionnaire for the presence of D.I.D. may be found at: http://counsellingresource.com/quizzes/cesd/index.html
Those people who have D.I.D. may experience such things as “coming to” in a place that they don’t recognise, or receiving bills for things they don’t remember ordering, or, if living alone, finding notes in a different handwriting, or sometimes friends tell them things about themselves, and their behaviour as another “alter”.
