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.

Can people improve what they don't like about their personalities or are personalities unchangeable?
Certain personality disorders, such as psychopathy, seem to be incurable, but most personallity traits in normal people can be conciously changed or at least controlled. For instance, if you have a bad temper, and your outbursts upset those around you, your concience will tell you to modify your behaviour. In order to not like something about your personality, you have to see yourself as others see you, and some people are incapable of this.For example, a person who uses others, won't pay his debts, and generally thinks the world owes him a living, often doesn't have the insight(or morals) to change his personality.
