poly-fragmented vs. "traditional" DID

[orek]

Hi, cew, welcome to MM.

Yes, the number is, I believe, over a hundred parts (though that's obviously a random number picked for the sake of a generalized identification), and layering of parts is also a common factor in polyfragmented systems. I don't think there's an official diagnostic term or criteria for it, but there does seem to be awareness of it among those who study and treat DID--to a limited degree. I hope there's more understood about it in the future, even though it's just a variation of DID and technically treated the same. The nuances in presentation, etc., is better recognized and treated if understood.
