Dissociation is a state in which a person is completely unaware of certain parts or aspects of him or herself. This illness is called dissociative identity disorder because the illness involves states in which a person is aware of one aspect of his or her personality and completely unaware of other parts. This disorder is thought to result from severe and prolonged emotional trauma, physical abuse, or sexual abuse during childhood. The life course is variable, and the illness is often prolonged. This disorder almost always begins in childhood, although it may not become apparent to others or to the patient until a later age.
