“I think DID remains quite threatening to many people â€� this idea that people could have multiple personalities and switch back and forth. â€� I think unfortunately the media has created a stereotype, often a violent stereotype. So that’s part of what is frightening to people.
Also, there are a lot of people who just simply can’t believe it. How could this be!? It doesn’t make sense to them, and they miss it, even when it’s right in front of them. I certainly have seen DID patients switching away and the interviewer having no idea that this is going on or asks a vaguely-perceptive question like, “Did you just hear an hallucination?â€� Something like that. They recognise that something changed in the patient but they attribute it to more “conventionalâ€� symptoms like hallucinations.”
