MPD/aka Multiple personality type symptons

Just wondering if anyone has these types of symptons?

Hallucinations
Dissociation
Not knowing who you are
Extreme forgetfullness
Flashbacks
Gender association issues
Changes of direction/behaviour and thinking

I have a few but very mild. However, they are life effecting, and really quite strange.

Any ideas how these are formed? I have read its due to childhood abuse, however, Im unsure of why this happens. I mean how does the brain switch off or onto something else, due to trauma.

Thanks

There are many other diagnoses that would better fit those symptoms than "multiple personality" disorder. My advice to you is to see a mental health professional for a proper diagnosis along with seeking therapy. Researching symptoms on the internet will just make you paranoid and think that you have conditions that you don't necessarily have- kind of like those prescription med commercials on television make people think they have medical conditions that they don't necessarily have. Consult with a professional.

You have to play the cards that are dealt with any given scenerio. I feel your post as I do the same. You can't always be hot and same with cold... Sometimes you need to be luke warm~

On a different note.... My voices tend to be at war as of late and they've recently told me to shut up...

I did have it once where I had an inner dominant voice, kind of like what you see " mediums " experience when they suddenly say they are channeling another human/angel or what ever.

This dominant voice was barking orders of how I should behave lol...

Anyway, I did follow the voice. But it was very unlike me, I was more relaxed, this was a voice that was kind of like a teacher.

I dont need a psychotherapist as these are mild symptons I have just noted that they resemble MPD quite closely thats all. And I think I have these under control now. In my 20s however, I had little choice but to go through them.
