What are the dangers of multiple personality?

The biggest danger of Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly Multiple Personality Disorder) is having one or more personalities unaware of other personalities and their actions. People with DID cannot recall important personal information. This is not due to forgetfulness or traumatic brain injury. If one or more of the personalities are aggressive and/or hostile, this can cause anything from embarrassment to imprisonment for the other personalities. Frequent gaps in memory occur, both for recent and past memory. There may be visual or auditory hallucinations. One personality may "wake up" and not recall where he/she is or how he/she got there. Other disorders may occur in conjunction with DID. PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) occurs in quite a few people with DID. Other disorders may include Mood Disorder, Substance-Related Disorder, Sexual Disorder, Eating Disorder, Sleep Disorder, and Borderline Personality Disorder.

What are some examples of traumatic events?

A traumatic event can be traumatic for various reasons and many people disagree on what is traumatic and what is not. Whether an event is traumatic or not, will depend on the individual. But for many people, natural disasters are very traumatic because of the loss of property, wealth, and life. Other people agree that car accidents are very traumatic because of the possibility of death, severe injury, or paralysis. Other people experience trauma as a result of rape, molestation, or domestic violence. Abuse (physical, sexual, emotional) is also traumatic. For many parents, families, and caregivers, trauma can result from caring for the severe mental illness of a loved one. For example, schizophrenia or severe bipolar disorder can be very traumatizing to family members. It is difficult to understand the person's delusion, hallucinations, increased levels of energy, or changing moods or thought processes. The list of traumatic events are extensive. The key here is remembering that traumatic events can be different for everyone. What you might think is traumatic may not be traumatic to the next person.
