Our personalities make each of us unique. But what if you had more than one personality? A person with multiple personality disorder can have multiple, unique-and sometimes even dangerous-personalities. Multiple personality disorder is only one form of disassociation that the human mind can experience. From Cotard delusion, the belief that you're walking dead, to Capgras syndrome, the illusion that those around you are imposters, this volume of Freaky Phenomena investigates disorders of the human mind. Personality explores true accounts of these conditions and how they affect a person's life.
