Formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder. Dissociative Identity Disorder is a complex dissociative disorder characterized by the presence of two or more distinct personality states with amnesia between them. Each personality is it's own individual person and may have different names, memories, personal histories, and characteristics.
It is currently believed that DID forms due to structural dissociation. When humans are below the ages of 7-9, we do not have a stable or integrated self/personality, and instead have parts. There is a part that craves love, a part that wants food, a part that is sad, etc etc. (This is why babies will go from crying to laughing in seemingly a few seconds.) When we reach the age of roughly 7-9, these parts, along with our experiences will integrate into one, whole personality. However, if a child experiences severe and repetitive trauma before this age, and does not have stable relationships with their primary caregivers (Parent(s), etc) then the brain will put up amnesic walls as a way to protect itself from the memories of the terrible things that have/are happening, and these walls prevent the personality from integrating, which results in the parts staying separate.
Contrary to popular belief and media representation, people with DID are not evil, nor dangerous. They are traumatized individuals who are more likely to hurt themselves than anyone else, and many have gone on to live happy, successful lives.

Get the St. Ides mug.idealology, makes reference to a set of idealistic moral and ethical values and principles which form the main standpoint and approach within society,in how to achieve perfection in relation with how its social, economical and state structures are to function and operate in order to achieve and maintain the highest level of perfection, and consequently a idealistically balanced social, economical and politically stable and balanced society. Ultimately ideology, is the opposite to ideology. Effectively idealology, stands for what society can be, whereas in contrast ideology represents what society is and should be. Effectively idealology by nature is suggestive whereas ideology is forceful.
Idealology can best be defined as the idéaliste-équilibré economy. Whereas ideology, can best be attributed to Capitalistic economies.
