I’m choosing to use an article on Multiple personality disorder for my essay to compare with Yoyo ma and Jonah Lehrer’s articles. I think that science and art can help with this disorder. I know that there’s no type of way to permanently fix it so you don’t have the disorder, the reason being is the only reason you’d have this disorder is when something tragic happens to you as a kid and your mind starts to find ways to shield you from what has happened. It’s not like this with everyone, it’s kind of a rare disorder but there are ways to help with it. The disorder is usually dealt with talk therapy which is a long term commitment and its suppose to help with understanding what triggered or triggers the DID. I think you could use science and art to help understand and control these triggers or get to know more about the personalities that the person has.
