Multiple Personal disorder
"You shouldn't ask yourself if you are Multiple or
not, but you should ask yourself to which extention
you are"
In serious cases of abuse the child may develope MPD
-Multiple Personal disorder. A human being with MPD
has two or several 'persons' within the same body of
which each and everyone of them seem to live their own
lives.
Often these personalities are so well apart from each other
that they don't know of the other personalities at all. Why this
happens is more easily understood if you imagine a child with
a father who is warm and tender one second and hard and
brutal the next.
The little child can't bare to take this and develeops then
different persons within itself to meet these different sides
within the father.
These persons within this little child are called alters.
The alters may be two, or even a hundred or more. The
alter being most visible to people around the child
is called a hostpersonality.
These alters have often different assignments. One may be
the one cleaning the house while another is the artist or the
one taking care of work or jsut being the one who is sad or
joyful.
The alters may have a diffrent gender, color or sexual
orientation than the hostperson or the body itself.
Some of the victims of Ritual abuse have alters who are
trained and manipulated by the abuser to 'work' for the
abuser himself (herself).
Multiple Personal disorder is not a sickness or a mental
illness. You can't cure it. The only thing you can do is to
try to integrate the alters.
The process of integration are devided into two groups
depending on what you mean by 'integration':
1) When the alters learns to communicate, share
memories and comminicate, they have in
one meaning of the word been integrated into
eachother.
2) When these alters goes a step further and
through fusion becomes one.
Some people choose not to integrate their alters (integration
meaning fusion) or they just do it partly. Being multiple
you yourself choose what you find the best.
