Trained as a psychologist, Keyes would later turn his attention to real-life psychological dramas. The Minds of Billy Milligan documents the true story of William Milligan, who would become the first person acquitted of a major crime due to twenty-four multiple personalities. A movie, The Crowded Room, based on the Milligan book, is in the works.
A sequel, The Milligan Wars, is scheduled to be published in the United States when the movie is released.

Amygdala usually joins up with another, more intelligent villain who uses him for muscle. That’s what Gruber is doing on Gotham, but if Danzig really is Amygdala, in later episodes we could see him at the behest of the Ventriloquist, the mobster with Dissociative Identity Disorder (otherwise known as a split personality), who expresses his criminal activity through a small dummy. Even a guy with a dummy can be a well-respected criminal mastermind if he has a rageaholic giant by his side. Amygdala has also been pitted against Batman, who was able to defeat him with his quick reflexes.

Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), now more commonly called complex partial seizure disorder so as to include seizures that originate in the frontal foci, straddles the borderland between psychiatry and neurology. Since the condition may involve gross disorders of thought and emotion, patients with temporal lobe epilepsy frequently come to the attention of psychiatrists. But since symptoms may occur in the absence of generalized grand mal seizures, physicians may often fail to recognize the epileptic origin of the disorder. Indeed, misdiagnosis and failures of diagnosis are common in TLE. Fortunately, the illness is marked by certain "signature" symptoms that can aid in its identification.

John Hughlings Jackson observed in the late 1800s that seizures originating in the medial temporal lobe often result in a "dreamy state" involving vivid memory-like hallucinations sometimes accompanied by dj vu or jamais vu (interpreting frequently encountered people, places or events as unfamiliar). Jackson wrote of "highly elaborated mental states, sometimes called intellectual aura," involving "dreams mixing up with present thoughts," a "double consciousness" and a "feeling of being somewhere else." While the "dreamy state" can occur in isolation, it is often accompanied by fear and a peculiar form of abdominal discomfort associated with loss of contact with surroundings, and automatisms involving the mouth and GI tract (licking, lip-smacking, grunting and other sounds).

TLE Personality?

Controversy continues as to the validity of a so-called temporal lobe personality. Certainly, many of the patients tend to be obsessive and over-inclusive in their thinking, often satisfying some or all of the requirements for obsessive-compulsive personality: hyperphogia may be seen in some patients. Their speech and thinking is "viscous" and ponderous with a tendency toward loquacity and the insistence on the elaboration of fine and often tedious distinctions. Outbursts of irritability, rather than frank violence, are hallmarks of TLE.

When interviewing suspected TLE patients, it's important to inquire about their birth and any complications of the pregnancy. Forceps deliveries, now almost unheard of, were quite common years ago and led to compressive injuries of the brain, anoxic damage to Ammon's horn in the hippocampus and the subsequent temporal lobe epilepsy. Also ask about generalized seizures, head injuries, concussions, temper tantrums and, with males, a history of aggression, fire setting, truancy and impulsive behaviors. Has the patient experienced frequent dj vu, jamais vu, depersonalization, autoscopy or sudden mood swings accompanied by visceral or oral sensations? Do others complain that the patient often doesn't seem to be listening, appears to be daydreaming or otherwise preoccupied? Often the patients are aware of their lapses, and almost all of them experience some form of memory disturbance, even if nothing more than a vague inability to grasp things with sufficient precision.

Other rare presentations include anorexia nervosa (Signer and Benson 1990), multiple personality (Schenk and Bear 1981) or compulsive water drinking (Remillard, et al. 1981). Spitting and embarrassment have been described as the aura of a complex partial seizure (Devinsky and colleagues 1982; Hecker and colleagues 1972)

Historically, cult refers to a system of worship and more specifically to an innovative religious system, as opposed to a sect, which is a breakaway group from an established religion. During the past 30 years, however, cult has taken on a pejorative connotation arising from disasters such as Jonestown and Waco, and hundreds of media reports of individuals and families devastated by involvement in cults.

Although some scholars of religion now favor the term new religious movement over cult, many mental health professionals, perhaps because they are more likely to see the casualties of new groups, feel comfortable using the term cult (Langone; Singer and Lalich; Tobias and Lalich). They see cults as highly manipulative groups that exploit and otherwise abuse their members. Although most groups accused of being cults are religious, some claim to be psychological (Singer and colleagues; Temerlin and Temerlin) or political (Lalich).

"Cults are groups that often exploit members psychologically and/or financially, typically by making members comply with leadership's demands through certain types of psychological manipulation, popularly called mind control, and through the inculcation of deep-seated anxious dependency on the group and its leaders."
I believe it is reasonable to estimate that at least 3,000 to 5,000 potentially cultic groups exist.

When manipulation and neediness are high, deliberation will be emotionalized and dissociated, and the psychodynamic and thought reform models will both apply. Because little has been written about cases that would fall within this cell, more investigation is needed.
By gradually isolating members from outside influences, establishing unrealistically high, guilt-inducing expectations, punishing any expressions of "negativity," and denigrating independent critical thinking, the group causes members to become extremely dependent on its compliance-oriented expressions of love and support. Once a state of dependency is firmly established, the group's control over members' thoughts, feelings and behavior is strengthened by the members' growing dread of losing the group's psychological support (physical threat also occurs in some groups), however much that support may aim at ensuring their compliance with leadership's often debilitating demands. Thus, the new DDD syndrome is one of deception, dependency and dread.
The limited research and clinical data concerning cult members seems at first to be perplexing and contradictory. On the one hand, clinicians tell us that cult environments attempt to surreptitiously reshape their members' personalities (Clark; Singer; West and Martin), a process that on its face should be fraught with tension.

Psychotherapy with former cult members includes five overlapping goals:

  • Help patients understand the psychological manipulation and abuse to which they were subjected;
  • Help them manage the day-to-day crises (e.g., how to deal with skeptical Aunt Carol's visit) that often seem out of proportion to patients' level of intellectual functioning and psychological history (and that often cause therapists to overestimate the degree of psychopathology in ex-member patients);
  • Help patients reconnect to and repair their pasts (personal relationships, goals, interests), grieve over lost time, friendships, and sense of purpose (however illusory it may have been), and compare and contrast their cult and mainstream lives;
  • To the extent possible, mobilize patients' social support network and other resources (e.g., educational or vocational resources);
  • Help patients integrate their cult experience into the rest of their life experience and deal with residual psychological problems.
The training component has three goals: (1) to improve communication; (2) to identify a strategy to help the involved person; and (3) to implement the strategy.
Standard communication and negotiation skills training can contribute much to the first goal. In addressing the second, the consultant and family will usually choose from one of the following options: (a) postpone a decision about strategy and focus on collecting more information to complete the assessment properly; (b) acknowledge the family's limited influence, devise a strategy for making the best out of a bad situation and carefully look for reasons to hope that the situation may someday change for the better; and (c) develop a strategy for intervention, which may include family counseling with the involved person or exit counseling.

Severity of Borderline Personality Symptoms in Adolescence: Relationship With Maternal Parenting Stress, Maternal Psychopathology, and Rearing Styles.

Abstract

The development of borderline personality disorder (BPD) has been associated with parenting styles and parental psychopathology. Only a few studies have examined current parental rearing styles and parental psychopathology in relationship to BPD symptoms in adolescents. Moreover, parenting stress has not been examined in this group. The current study examined 101 adolescents (14-19 years old) with BPD symptoms and their mothers. Assessments were made on severity of BPD symptoms, youth-perceived maternal rearing styles, and psychopathology and parenting stress in mothers. Multiple regression analyses

Saks's book is a scholarly examination of the intersection of mental illness and the criminal justice system. Saks focuses exclusively on multiple personality, a controversial and only recently recognized mental disorder.
The philosophical underpinnings that frame the legal questions of culpability, punishment, and competence to stand trial are examined and provide the background for the author's proposals for applicable legal rules.
A chapter is devoted to related disorders, such as dissociative amnesia, and an appendix examines the technical issues of assessment techniques, empirical studies of differences between multiple personalities, and treatment options. Highly recommended for academic libraries.

“As the obsession grows, so does the stalker’s courage.”
As this foolishness is going on, it’s paired with dialogue like, “My mom’s on a date with a stockbroker,” which feels like it’s intentionally in there just so it sounds like she might be saying, “My mom’s on a date with a stalker.” This hyperbolization of everything, including what you’re thinking, as absurdity completes your sentences, is why I think this show works.
Thankfully, about half way through the episode begins shifting more into the other direction. The twisted revelation that Thomas’ stalker/kidnapper is actually the friendly neighbor, who lost a son that was exactly the same age as Thomas, with this all being an attempt to recreate her broken life, is appropriately ridiculous. It’s even more so that she’s also suffering from multiple personality disorder and straight out bonkers, hitting women in the face with frying pans, and (of course) also responsible for the death of her actual son

The world's wildest reality show (the markets, that is) gave both bulls and bears something to think about on Wednesday as stocks surged and the dollar tanked.
The split personality of the US stock market over the past six trading sessions invites a not-unjust comparison to the famous Two-Face Batman villain; for traders and active investors, this means prudent risk management survival tactics should be the one and only goal.
Today and tomorrow we have the pleasure of listening to a plethora of Federal Reserve members speak. While it is somewhat unlikely that they will completely reverse course on what was discussed in the September meeting, it is still worth paying attention just in case the markets' multiple-personality disorder proves contagious.

Mai, meanwhile, suffers from a sort of multiple personality disorder that channels Vietnamese folk belief in the transmissibility of spirits.
She works at a law firm as a librarian, a position calling for attention to detail but not much in the way of ambition, or so some fractured part of her consciousness opines. In moments of duress, a different self manifests with acts of destruction: unleashed id in Freudian, or Incredible Hulk, terms.
This effect, in particular, strains credulity and yet is exactly what Bao represents within Mai: a push beyond reasonable limits, the dutiful, conscientious existence led by her father. In contrast, a reader senses Mr. Minh’s estranged friend Phong is a much less reliable sort: avid, envious, craven.

Is there one Alia Bhatt? Or more?

Or are there multiple clones of her living inside her body with different minds and thoughts?

No one really knows actually and it is slowly becoming a mystery for which we might have to take help from now-dead-but-turning-and-twisting-in-his-grave-with-this-thought, Sherlock Holmes!

Is she a regular film-family girl who is deservingly on her way to become a superstar actress or is she someone who is hiding something from her fans?

Some dark wild secret about having multiple people living inside her body and mind!

Absolute natural she is!

This means that at such a young age, she does have script sense and is very comfortable in her skin to be able to perform difficult roles with commendable efficiency.

"Hiss?" said one head, nose pointed at a cow carcass in the distance.

"Hiss hiss hiss" the other head replied, and curled further around the warm rock they were sitting on.

The first head was determined though, and kept slithering towards the carcass. The second head couldn't remain as relaxed as it wanted and still attached to the rock with its brother's trying to move them both.
Negotiations broke down, the first head turned from the carcass and struck its brother, after a brief fight it detached and ate the second head.

The main titles sequence for season one of True Detective was mesmerizing and, apparently, ripe for parody as we see in the new main titles sequence for Key & Peele.
We were given the brief of creating a Key & Peele-style homage to the dark, gritty opening sequences that are currently popular on-air. They listed examples like Dexter, True Detective, and American Horror Story,” says yU+co art director Synderela Peng.
“The sequence is primarily based on the idea of multiple personality disorder,” Peng explains. “Our original style frames showed numerous character faces spawning from one another, suggesting a psychotic break. This was combined with an inkblot graphic device from another concept that allowed for scenes to be revealed as if part of a Rorschach test.”

norristown >> A Hatfield woman who claimed to have a multiple personality disorder at the time she stole $90,000 from the local church where she was treasurer learned “Thou shalt not steal” from a judge who punished her with jail and house arrest.

Stephanie Anne Kligge, 36, formerly of the 400 block of South Main Street, was sentenced in Montgomery County Court to three to 23 months in the county jail, to be followed by five years’ probation, for a total period of court supervision of about seven years. Under a sentencing agreement, Kligge will serve her minimum sentence this way: two days each week in jail, for a period of 45 consecutive weeks beginning Nov. 3, and the remaining time under house arrest.

“The evidence shows that Stephanie stole the financial assets of the church, but that is not all she stole. Stephanie stole trust. In many ways, members of the church family feel deceived,” H. James Finnemeyer, president of the church board, told the judge during an eloquent speech.

Kligge, according to testimony, grew up in the church, was a member of its youth group, a Sunday school teacher and co-chair of the annual Peach Festival.
