involved during the abuse (BoyyM, 1998, p.1). As an adult,
             the abused child finds it hard to keep track of time and may
             have episodes of amnesia. Other symptoms that will appear in
             adults with MPD are depression, auditory and visual
             hallucinations (hearing voices) and suicidal thoughts.
             Another major symptom is when the adult has no recollection
             of their childhood. The adult with MPD has no idea they were
             abused as children and also unaware of the other
             personalities living inside of their head.
             Multiple Personality Disorder is when there is "the
             presence of two or more distinct identities or
             personalities, each with its own relatively enduring pattern
             of perceiving, relating to, and thinking about the
             environment and self"(BoyyM, 1998, p.1). There can be

             fragments, child members, preteen, teenager, adults,
             artistic/music, cross-gender, cross-colored, animal members,

             original personality, or the one that created the other
             personalities, but is unaware of them. The most common
             apparent identities are the child, persecutor, rescuer, and
             helper. The child is the identity that is under the age of
             twelve. They behave as children often sucking thumbs,
             twisting hair, like to eat cookies, throw tantrums, and use
             child-like vocabulary. The Persecutor identity is the
             self-destructive identity that is violent and angry.
             Persecutor identities usually have a drug/alcohol problem
             and generally put the host at risk. The rescuer personality
             is usually devoid of emotion but logical, able, proficient,
