Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is characterized by the presence of two or more distinct personalities or identities within an individual. These alter identities can have their own attitudes, behaviors, memories, and even physical characteristics, and they may have very different perceptions of the world compared to the host personality. Therefore, it is expected that the alter identities would be strikingly different from Brigid, the host personality.
