Isn MPD really just a way for people to get attention?
It is often thought that MPD is a sham, a bizarre form of “play-acting” that is perpetrated by manipulative, attention-seeking individuals. It is not. MPD is a “disorder of hiddeness” wherein 80-90% of MPD patients do not have a clue that they are “multiple.” Most know that there is something wrong with them; many fear that they are crazy– but few know that they are multiple.
