i think it comes from a lack of understanding mostly. i thought it was a bizarre concept, and totally not possible at first, too. then i met someone that i held a high opinion of and found out they had been integrated. after that, i read up on it like crazy. and i think the more you study DID, the more you understand it and it no longer seems so bizarre.
as for recovered memory, yes that is a heated debate indeed. but i don't think that's the major problem when it comes to the arguments over DID. i think the main issue is that, without being informed about it, it's hard to fathom.
