multiple personality
Multiple personality, also known as Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), is a mental disorder characterized by the presence of two or more distinct or split identities or personality states, each with its own pattern of perceiving, relating to, and thinking about the environment and self. Each identity may have a unique name, personal history, and characteristics, including differences in voice, gender, mannerisms, and even physical qualities like allergies. The individual alternately switches or transitions from one personality to another, which can last for a few minutes to several years. This disorder often develops as a response to severe psychological trauma during early childhood.
