For What Reason Do Thinkers Find Identity Disorders Interesting?

Abstract

Individuals diagnosed with "identity disorders" have a diverse range of mental health issues that are marked by significant fluctuations in their subjective perception of self-identity. The formation of an individual's subjective sense of self and trans temporal identity can be influenced by a diverse array of circumstances, including: The absence of preconception can result in a complete loss of bodily consciousness, leading to a state of self-awareness that is devoid of any bodily sensations (Cole, 1995; Gallagher & Cole, 1995; Sacks, 1998). Schizophrenia, departmentalization disorders, and dissociative identity disorder (DID) are among the mental health illnesses that can lead to a disruption in an individual's perception of their own identity. In certain instances of this particular type of dissolution, numerous distinct selves coexist within a singular physical entity. The evaluation of state-classes as self-representational content holds equal importance to the assessment of their functional appropriateness or phenomenology. The redistribution of the perceptual characteristic known as "mistiness" or "sense of ownership" is notably observed in the second set of conditions mentioned earlier, inside the realm of representational space. In conclusion, the existence of a minimum of four separate identification delusions (DM1) may be observed, namely reduplication par-amnesia, Frolic syndrome, inter metamorphosis, reverse inter metamorphosis, and Cascaras syndrome.
