Macabre for Mortals

Episode 25 - Dissociative Identity Disorder


Listen Later

Hello and Welcome to this weeks episode of Macabre for Mortals. Thank you for your great response to the Parole series, it was great to get some good feedback on this series.

As discussed last week I am going to be discussing Multiple personality disorders or how it is medically known as Dissociative identity disorder. I will be addressing what this is medically and how it is diagnosed, even though it is still a grey area. I will be covering how the media presents Dissociative identity disorder, and when this has been present in criminal or other types of case studies.
