背景许多被告知患有多重人格/分离性身份认同障碍（MPD/DID）的患者在被诊断后似乎在临床上恶化了。在这里，我们报告的结果自杀企图的患者诊断为患有MPD和一个对照组住院的mood disorder.MethodsTwenty个人谁已被诊断为患有MPD，已开发出错误的记忆，并放弃了他们的调查，进行了调查，自杀企图之前和之后的诊断。12个接近同意提供数据，并进行了比较，从住院患者的情绪障碍单位，匹配的年龄和sex.ResultsIn MPD组更多的患者试图自杀后，被诊断比以前，他们在自杀比以前更多的单独尝试。在住院前后有自杀企图的对照组中，情况正好相反。两组患者诊断/住院前和诊断/住院后的尝试次数比较，卡方2 =20.177，DF=1，P<0.001。局限性和结论两组患者均为高选择性样本，对照组不能提供精确的对照。然而，研究结果支持了文献中的一种趋势，即发现多重人格障碍的诊断和恢复记忆治疗的使用是有害的。
BackgroundMany patients who have been told they have Multiple Personality/Dissociative Identity Disorder (MPD/DID) seem to have deteriorated clinically after being so diagnosed. We report here the results of a survey of suicide attempts in patients diagnosed as having MPD and a comparison group hospitalized with a mood disorder.MethodsTwenty individuals who had been diagnosed as having MPD, had developed false memories, and had relinquished them, were surveyed with respect to suicide attempts before and after the diagnosis. Twelve of those approached agreed to provide data and were compared with 12 patients from an in-patient mood disorders unit, matched for age and sex.ResultsIn the MPD group more patients attempted suicide after being diagnosed than before and they made more separate attempts at suicide than before. The reverse was true in the comparison group with patients and suicide attempts before and after hospitalization. Comparing the numbers of attempts in the groups before diagnosis/hospitalization and afterward Chi2=20.177, DF=1, P<0.001.Limitations and ConclusionsBoth samples were highly selected, and the comparison group does not provide an exact control. Nevertheless, the results support a trend in the literature that finds the diagnosis of multiple personality disorder and the use of recovered memory treatment are harmful.
