Multiple Personality Disorder is now referred to as Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) in the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual. The new terminology reflects research showing that those with DID do not actually have multiple personalities. Rather, they have two or more personality states with different ways of relating, perceiving, thinking, and remembering. Identity, memory, and consciousness are not integrated into a single multidimensional self.
