jay, yes, it's appropriate. ty for being gentle. please remain that way. multiple personality disorder is now known as dissociative identity disorder. there are very good sites online that could help you with your understanding. also, as zh said, you can check out the dissociative forum. it will be quite revealing to you i'm sure.

what specifically do you feel you need to know? first, may i ask why? do you suspect someone close to you of having DID?

thanks for asking gently and with tact. i'll answer what i can, but would like to you check out some online sites for complete dx information...that's the place to start i think.
