Two schizophrenia jokes corrected

My dad's a person with multiple personality disorder....but he's good
people.

And

Rose are red, violets are blue, I have dissociative identity
disorder....and so do I.

Schizophrenia is often associated with split personalities. This is
incorrect. The confusion is increased by the idiotic way the etymology
is misquoted as meaning split mind (it's a new word and it means what
Bleuler meant in his reconceptualisation of dementia preacox. He chose
latin words but the latin words don't elucidate on the meaning). It's
like saying "money" means a warning because it's latin root is from
monetare (the same as for the word admonish). Muyltiple personality
disorder would be the correct diagnosis and Dissociate Identity Disorder
is the latest word for MPD.

DID is nothing like what people might expect from a split
personality/ies. However I wonder if there's a reason why there's a
cultural misoner about what is dual personalities and what is
schizophrenia other than the misuse of etymology. There's an internal
experience with schizophreniaa that creates the need to build a mask.
The symptoms and the stigma of the symptoms of an unusual experience of
consciousness mean people who interact in a normal way are forced to
create some sort of mask.

People may think I've got two personalities or more. If you ever met me
you might be surprised that I was the author of this blog. I hide my
internal thoughts and my sensitivity and possibly overcompensate by
being an out-going in person. Some people only know the out-going person
they love to hate. Many people who have gotten to know me behind my mask
and the many layers find someone totally different. They may percieve
that as too many personalities or someone who's too complex. It's not
though. It's a fairly normal thing I think. The situation is perhaps a
little more extreme in my case because the internal me is so weird but
everyone's pretty weird inside.
