A good video. However, it would still be good if we had a video that more clearly explained what we think DID is and, although this is problematic for a variety of reasons, a video interview with someone who has DID as we now believe it to exist. I have spoken to a few clinicians who agree that while multiple personality disorder probably doesn’t exist, people do indeed “dissociate”. In one of the videos so far mentioned a clinician says that dissociation is similar to that experience we have when we are driving and we arrive somewhere but don’t know how we got there. Well, I’ve heard that experience used to explain hypnosis so it doesn’t quite work for me.
