Question: Is this something they are born with or did they develop it over time?


Answers: Is this something they are born with or did they develop it over time?

It is usually developed after a child is 5 years old if they been abused or neglected in this critical period of their development. They then form 'seperate' personalities to get away from the horrific situations they are in and can become so involved with the pretend character, it becomes real in their minds.

For more information, watch the film 'Sybil' and 'The Three Faces of Eve'.

they feel the need to escape reality

mental illness caused by chemical imbalance in the brain

That is an interesting question, I really like it...my god this question is stupid its like the most...intriguing question I have ever heard in my life...which you are wasting right now having me answer this question..which is interesting.

they usually split personality when theyre applying fo a job or when theyre working in a job and when they get home theyre themselves again because they dont have to act a such way like the manager wants

schizophrenia is also referred to as split personality and has no definitive one cause, but there are several contributing factors such as genetics, traumatic episodes in ones life, chemical imbalances in the brain, drug and alcohol abuse, physical trauma resulting in brain injury, or strokes.

I have a minor case of this, seems to be going away some now but it used to be in much more affect.

Mine developed over time. I cannot give you a scientific response but I can give you an answer derived from experience.

some are more severe than others, but most all of them tend to be affected by things they have gone through in the past, and/or stress.

Mine was kind of a person that reacted impulsively and fought with vengeance. He wanted revenge at any cost. He seemed to have been all my pushed down, bottled up feelings of what was happening to me. Such as, I was beat up on a regular basis and kidnapped when I was a child, my mom tended to create a fake utopia in my mind and kept me ignorant from the rest of the world. I always thought thats just how things were. I later found out about the fact that I am a big kid and could actually fight back, (I never fought back because my mother taught me that it was wrong to fight or hurt) and thats where "he" came into play. "he" would think of elaborate plans to kill or torture or just plain hurt the people that were beating me up, all because the real me pushed back those thoughts due to moral reasons.

hope that helps
