Abstract
A patient with multiple personality disorder emerging following a traumatic war experience developed a personality representing an identification with a dead comrade. There was no previous history of dissociation, although childhood onset could not be ruled out. This case demonstrates features of pathological mourning and raises the question of whether there are some instances in which multiple personality may have its onset in adulthood.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
