2. Dissociative Identity Disorder As A Not To Know Strategy An article by Mona Barbera, Ph.D. http://www.nesttd.org/nottoknow.htm

Dissociative Identity Disorder as a "Not to Know Strategy" by Mona Barbera, Ph.D. In the September/October 1999 issue of the ISSD (International Society for the Study of Dissociation ) newsletter, ISSD president Peter Barach lists 10 changes in the treatment of DID that have occurred in the past 10 years. Number 3 is "Focusing on the dissociative patient as a whole." He writes, "Along these lines, I have found that referring to DID as the 'not to know strategy' can facilitate this shift in focus." Some of my patients and I like this and find it useful in treatment because it is non-pathological, describing a strategy rather than a disorder. DID in adulthood is, of course, a disorder, causing much difficulty and dysfunction in daily living. It should stay in the DSM and should be treated as a psychological problem. But the etiology of DID in childhood, engendered in experiences of abuse, suggests that it arose originally as a strategy, as a way to avoid full conscious experiencing of something intolerable. Calling it the "not to know strategy" emphasizes the functionality of the dissociative splits. They were, in effect, a way not to know everything all at once. "Not to know" includes not knowing actual events, and also their attendant emotions, cognitions and behaviors. Blocking all or part of this knowing allows a child to function.

How you can help About Trauma Dissociative Disorders available from Sidran in packages of 50 for a small fee. Recently considered rare and mysterious psychiatric curiosities, Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) (previously known as Multiple Personality Disorder-MPD) and other Dissociative Disorders are now understood to be fairly common effects of severe trauma in early childhood, most typically extreme, repeated physical, sexual, and/or emotional abuse. In Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-IV (American Psychiatric Association, 1994), Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD) was changed to Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), reflecting changes in professional understanding of the disorder resulting from significant empirical research. Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), widely accepted as a major mental illness affecting 8% of the general population in the United States, is closely related to Dissociative Disorders. In fact, 80-100% of people diagnosed with a Dissociative Disorder also have a secondary diagnosis of PTSD. The personal and societal cost of trauma disorders is extremely high. Recent research suggests the risk of suicide attempts among people with trauma disorders may be even higher than among people who have major depression. In addition, there is evidence that people with trauma disorders have higher rates of alcoholism, chronic medical illnesses, and abusiveness in succeeding generations. WHAT IS DISSOCIATION?

10. Definition Of Multiple Personality Disorder Now all our multiples had dissociative identity disorder or DID. 300.14dissociative identity disorder (formerly Multiple Personality Disorder) http://www.dissociation.com/index/definition/

Dual Personality, Multiple Personality, Dissociative Identity Disorder - What's in a Name? When I diagnosed my first case of MPD in 1972 (Janette in " Minds In Many Pieces "), I had had no professional training on the subject. I went to the Stanford Medical Library to look up articles on the subject since no computerized databases existed then. The book called "Index Medicus" was the only place one could start searching for published articles. There I found the listing of "Dual Personality." In the 1970s, when I started meeting with other therapists of "multiples" (the term we all came to use for patients with MPD), we informally agreed to call the disorder "Multiple Personality Disorder" or MPD for short. I wrote to the editors of the Index Medicus to ask them to add Multiple Personality Disorder to the subject headings, and they did that. At that time, a small group of us therapists were struggling with these patients, and we created our own networking methods. I published a newsletter, "Memos On Multiplicity," for one year as my way of trying to let such therapists know where fellow adventurers in this field were. Eventually, the interest moved from the solo practitioner's office to the academic halls of learning. Some practitioners had teaching appointments in graduate schools where their opinions about MPD were not always greeted with acceptance. After all, the accepted dictums stated that people only were allowed one personality per body. Anyone claiming to have patients with two or more personalities had a difficult task convincing those in academia that such was possible.

I am planning on removing broken links and working on things over the next month so hopefully things here will be brighter by the end of the summer. I have taken a chance and have created a page here all about me. This site came in to creation in several ways. I am a survivor of child abuse, both physical and sexual abuse as well as the emotional abuse that came hand in hand with what they did to me. I also am healing and surviving from a sexual assault. After the assault, I spent many hours searching the web for information on how to survive this horrible thing that had happened. I found lots of information on prevention and lots of technical things but not a whole lot on surviving. This was back in late 1995. So, when I found geocities and saw that they offered a free web page service, I was excited. It gave me the possiblity to create the type of site that I had been searching for. So, Mollykat's Resources for Survivors was created.

Wanda takes us into another world of suffering that not only bears witness to the trauma of sexual abuse but also gives the reader a little push toward thinking that there really are powerful people and organizations out there that want the truth suppressed at ANY cost! As a survivor of sexual abuse myself, I found this book helpful, encouraging, and a great resource. If you don't like it send me the bill.
