Questionnaire
From: People In Pieces Multiple Personality In Milder Forms Greater
Numbers
by Alan Marshall, Ph.D.
Is it possible you have an ego state disorder? Do you
dissociate? This questionnaire may help you decide if
you should get help now.
- Do you sometimes find yourself "zoning out" in the middle of a
conversation, nodding your head appropriately, but unable to get yourself back
in it and fearful that you will be found out?
- Did you spend a lot of time in fantasy as a child, so much so that
teachers or parents criticized you for being "in another world" a
good bit of the time?
- Does fantasy interfere with your life as an adult? Do you daydream about
pleasant things so much that it jeopardizes your job or compromises your
relationships?
- Do you feel like quite a different person from time-to-time?
- Do friends suggest that you seem quite changeable, different from
day-to-day?
- Are you accident-prone?
- Do you make a lot of "Freudian slips" -- where you think one
thing but say or write something quite different, even the opposite?
- Do you have a sense that part of you is missing or had to be jettisoned
along the way?
- Do you notice things about your sex life that you think are weird, like
hating to be touched in ways that most people seem to enjoy?
- Do you have large chunks of your childhood that are devoid of memories?
- Are you more indecisive than most of the people you know?
[A score of six or more "yes" answers is suggestive of Ego State
Disorder.]
Caution: This is not a standardized test,
and the scoring is only suggestive.
