Abstract

This paper concludes a review of the author's experience in rendering consultations regarding multiple personality disorder (MPD) over the 15 year period 1973-1988. It describes consultations regarding the "surround" of treatment, the use of hypnosis, forensic concerns, and patient initiated requests. As noted in Part I, which described this study and reviewed experiences rendering consultations with regard to diagnosis and general treatment issues, the publication of several articles and DSM-III in 1980 and the publication of four special journal issues in 1984 were watershed events, and marked notable shifts in its nature of many of the consultation requests that the author received.
