What's a mental disorder in which...?!


Question: What's a mental disorder in which!.!.!.!?
a person has a split personality such that he/she converses with him/herself and interacts further than just talking!?

I know that there are many disorders where a person talks to oneself and where a person is split into many 'mini-persons'!. But is there one where, for example, a person grounds him/herself!? And if so, what's its name!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You are right that there are many disorders where someone splits!. You could be talking about dissociative identity disorder (DID) which was called multiple personality disorder before the DMS-IV TR was published!. The DMS-IV TR is the diagnostic manual that mental health practitioners use to decide what, if any, disorder someone may have!.
You could also be thinking about schizophrenia which symptoms include hallucinations, delusions, thought disorder, and disorders of movement!.
You could also be thinking of schizoaffective disorder which is schizophrenia and a mood disorder such as depression or bipolar!.
This might also be delusional disorder, or shared psychotic disorder, or paraphrenia, or substance-induced psychotic disorder!.

All of these can cause a person to ground themself!.

I hope that this helps!.

You're speaking of someone having a fragmented personality in which each different personality displayed is aware of and engages each of the other personalities, as though all of them exist equally at the same time!. That isn't schizophrenia, though I can't recall the name for it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

This would be schizophrenia, someone suffering from this disorder may hear voices or have multiple personalities!. Someone with schizophrenia could possibly become violent, medicine usually helps to treat this and allows the person who has schizophrenia to function "normally"Www@Answer-Health@Com

Schizophrenia, dissociative identity disorder, or split-personality disorder!. I personally believe the latter two are also just schizophrenia!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
