Late to the DID party here. I just wanted to clarify: "multiple personality disorders" such as that showcased by Sybil Dorsett have in recent years been referred to as dissociative identity disorders. These are a subcategory of Dissociative Personality Disorder which is a condition in which one dissociates from reality but does not always result in the creation of an alternate personality. In many cases, DPD simply results in gaps in a waking memory such as not being sure how one arrived at a given location or began a certain task. In these cases, a secondary personality has not been witnessed much less documented.
