What are the signs of an individual having split personality?

Question

My boyfriend I guess is showing signs of that, or maybe he is just a natural born womanizer and liar. He is seeing someone right now, the girl will contact me and will tell me about their so called relationship. When you ask my BF he will just tell me she means nothing and he will even plan things for our future. Then I found out that he is also doing the same exact thing to other girl. I don't think a man of 42 yrs old will still play with feeling as easily as that, not unless he is suffering a mental or personality problem, right?

Answer 1

The only problem I detect here, that that your boy friend is suffering from the "LOUSE" and LOSER disease!!!
You need to just "kick him to the curb" and move on...you deserve so much better!!! Don't allow him to "talk" or "weasel" (get the pun?) himself back into your life!!! These kind of guys NEVER change!!!! You ALREADY "diagnosed" him correctly!
He is : "a natural born womanizer and liar" end of story!!!

Answer 2

"Split personality" is a controversial idea that some people actually have more than one personality within them, that may or may not know about each other. The idea is not widely accepted among the psychological community, mainly because its near impossible to confirm whether someone is just faking or not. It's really just a layman's expression for someone with a changeable personality.

I don't think your guy is necessarily mentally ill, but it could be that he has a mild form of a personality disorder that means he does not live by our moral rules and has no concept of the hurt he is causing. It's called being a sociopath.

Answer 3

so if he does have a personality problem that makes it ok? If a friend came to you and said that she knew her boyfriend had 2 other girls on the go what would you tell her she should do? He's playing you totally, giving you hope by planning your future together, and you think he's not doing this to the other two as well? Get out of there, do you really want to be 3rd best?

Answer 4

What your describing is not a split personality but more of a double life.

Here are the signs of split personality disorder, you can go through them and see if he is really suffering from this or just a cheat:
depression
anxiety (sweating, rapid pulse, palpitations)
phobias
panic attacks
physical symptoms (severe headaches or other bodily pain)
fluctuating levels of function, from highly effective to disabled
time distortions, time lapse, and amnesia
sexual dysfunction
eating disorders
sleeping disorders (insomnia, sleepwalking, night terrors)
posttraumatic stress
suicidal preoccupations and attempts
episodes of self-mutilation
psychoactive substance abuse[4]
Signs of DID include:
discussion of self in 3rd person
never feeling alone
talk of looking through others' eyes
talk of being half in and half out of their body
says "we" when talking about themselves

Answer 5

not a split personality my dear, just a cheater.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF A DISSOCIATIVE DISORDER?

People with Dissociative Disorders may experience any of the following: depression, mood swings, suicidal tendencies, sleep disorders (insomnia, night terrors, and sleep walking), panic attacks and phobias (flashbacks, reactions to stimuli or "triggers"), alcohol and drug abuse, compulsions and rituals, psychotic-like symptoms (including auditory and visual hallucinations), and eating disorders. In addition, individuals with Dissociative Disorders can experience headaches, amnesias, time loss, trances, and "out of body experiences." Some people with Dissociative Disorders have a tendency toward self-persecution, self-sabotage, and even violence (both self-inflicted and outwardly directed).

Answer 6

there is not any possibility he has dissociative id sickness they oftentimes haven't any concept what the different personalities are like nor do they bear in mind what happened throughout a time while yet another character became into on top of issues differences in personalities are often irritating and ive on no account heard of a case of somebody merchandising that they have got it. purely say mate, none of your indicators are even on the element of that of somebody with dissociative id sickness, purely decrease the crap! lol :)

Answer 7

Umm... it doesn't matter how old he is. Men are men and will play with feelings just how women do. Stop telling yoruself he has a mental problem and accept the fact that he's messing around on you.

Answer 8

You had me all prepped for an in depth scientific answer.

The man is playing. Dump him. Find a nice Canadian :)

If you were serious about the split personality:
taken from Wikipedia:
Patients exhibit a remarkable array of symptoms that can resemble other neurologic and psychiatric disorders, such as anxiety disorders, personality disorders, schizophrenic and mood psychoses, and seizure disorders. Symptoms of this particular disorder can sometimes include:

* depression
* anxiety (sweating, rapid pulse, palpitations)
* phobias
* panic attacks
* physical symptoms (severe headaches or other bodily pain)
* fluctuating levels of function, from highly effective to disabled
* time distortions, time lapse, and amnesia
* sexual dysfunction
* eating disorders
* sleeping disorders (insomnia, sleepwalking, night terrors)
* posttraumatic stress
* suicidal preoccupations and attempts
* episodes of self-mutilation
* psychoactive substance abuse[4]

Signs of DID include:

* discussion of self in 3rd person
* never feeling alone
* talk of looking through others' eyes
* talk of being half in and half out of their body
* says "we" when talking about themselves

Other symptoms include: Depersonalization, which refers to feeling unreal, removed from one's self, and detached from one's physical and mental processes. The patient feels like an observer of his life and may actually see himself as if he were watching a movie. Derealization refers to experiencing familiar persons and surroundings as if they were unfamiliar and strange or unreal.

Again, doctors must be careful not to assume that a client has MPD or DID simply because they present with some or all of these symptoms. Another factor in the diagnosis is that all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares idea, which is to say that although many of these symptoms may be present in an individual, he or she may not necessarily have DID. For example, someone may have severe PTSD (one symptom) and self mutilate with suicidal ideas, which is 3 of the above symptoms, but will not have DID. In order for DID to be diagnosed, there must be two or more distinctly present personalities.

Persons with dissociative identity disorder are often told of things they have done but do not remember and of notable changes in their behavior. They may discover objects, productions, or handwriting that they cannot account for or recognize; they may refer to themselves in the first person plural (we) or in the third person (he, she, they); and they may have amnesia for events that occurred between their mid-childhood and early adolescence. Amnesia for earlier events is normal and widespread.

Answer 9

U should be smart to know it,,,,,,the look on ur face is enough to get him angry and he is not the same again , no kisses, no affection and its like not picking up and all these.....but some men are strange, they will never let u know, they will just take u by surprise.

Answer 10

Yes a personality problem, but not one to be tolerated- if you tolerate it that will make it worse. He can probably be monoganous, but he doesn't feel the need, which means he's very immature and doesn't care enough about you. Sorry.
