Yes I know, I never said they weren't. That's your interpretation of what I said. I don't think that people with DID jump from one created personality to another, like some sort of space hoppers, continually forming new personalities.JasBarrow wrote: ↑Mon Mar 29, 2021 7:11 pmJasBarrow wrote: ↑Mon Mar 29, 2021 4:51 pmOk man thanks for explaining but I have to completely disagree with you. What your describing is fairly normal for most people, most of us will adjust our 'personality' depending on who we're speaking to and the situation we find ourselves in so comparing that to DID (also known as multiple personality disorder) makes no sense at all.This is where your logic falls down and its a really important point to emphasise. Personalities can change over time through life experience or a trauma or some kind of life changing event but its still just an evolution of the same single personality. Altering a personality doesnt create new versions of self.
DID is the existence of multiple distinct personalities which are completely separate entities.
You said it is also called multiple personality disorder. My comment to which your reply is about was pointing out to you that altering from one personality to another calculates to more than one personality... multiple personality disorder.
Take care.
