Best Answer

a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a mental illness in which a single person dissasociates from themself and displays multiple distinct identities or personalities, each with its own pattern of perceiving and interacting with the environment. it is also referred to as multiple personality disorder - MPD or dissasociative identity disorder, DID. It is not to be confused with natural or 'healthy' multiplicity, which is when several people/conciousnesses share one body. The definining difference is self-awareness, although most multiple groups will also not meet other standard MPD/DID criteria such as 'depersonalization of self' and often share memories and thoughts.
