And that is how the refrain goes in one of Britney’s tracks, namely “Heaven On Earth” (my favorite on the album.)
The cards have been dealt folks, and it seems that Britney Spears DOES have a personality disorder. TMZ reports that the “whole British accent thing is more than an accent” because Britney has multiple personalities, and that specific one we’ve seen, the people in her life (which should be shot for choosing money over forcing her to get help) have named it “the British girl.”
It gets freakier. When Britney loses her British personality, she claims to have no idea what she did during that time. A clear characteristic of a multiple personality disorder. TMZ’s source explains that Britney became the British girl on the day of her deposition, so she had no recollection of missing it.
But British Brit is not the only identity she has, there’s also “the weepy girl, the diva, the incoherent girl,” and on and on.
How about “no pants when I have my period girl”? They forgot her. And OH, btw, anyone else find it absolutely repulsing that Britney was inside a store last night trying on clothes while she had a freakin’ menstrual blood stain on her kitty cat? Excuse me while I vomit.
I am shocked and appalled, shocked and appalled. Is this true, or is it some made up shit? Somebody still making outrageous excuses? How is it that TMZ can diagnose her…where are their sources? Ah, I wanna know if this is for real because it is very interesting for a public spectacle to have such a disorder. It would explain a lot, and it would make everyone in her life look extremely foolish and stupid because they just watched this shit happen and did nothing.
“…it is very interesting for a public spectacle to have such a disorder…”
.
No, THIS IS JUST BRITNEY PLAYING UP THE DISORDER FOR PUBLIC SPECTACLE. IT’S A HOAX FOR THE HYPE..
.
Kinda funny how each different personality that supposedly doesn’t know about any other does the exact same thing EVERY FREAKIN’ DAY!
.
lET’S HOPE ONE OF HER FAKE PERSONALITIES INCLUDES UNDERWEAR OR LIKES STAYING AT HOME!!!!!!!!!
.
That, or hopefully this one will explode in her face like the “The VMA performance was Sarah Silverman’s fault” and then she flashed her vag again JUST A FEW HOURS LATER or the pregnancy ploy SHE HERSELF SABOTAGED THE VERY NEXT DAY. Perhaps this one will bakfire AND SHE’LL FINALLY BE COMMITTED!!!!!!! And let’s face it, THE FANTARDS ARE ALEADY SUCKING IT ON THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hmm…fucking with people that much? Worrying about messing with the paps that much? Making yourself seem crazy? THAT in it self sounds like a mental problem.
That would be a disorder, but it’s not DID, it’s something else entirely. Try mania. Try drug use. Try sociopathy. Try borderline personality disorder. Try narcissistic persoanlity disorders. Those are the types of disorder that makes someone just high enough in their cognitions that they feel superior to everyone else, and are highly manipulative. The longer she plays these games and delays treatment, the worse it’s going to be for her. Onless it’s sociopathy, we have no treatment fr that.
“Kinda funny how each different personality that supposedly doesn’t know about any other does the exact same thing EVERY FREAKIN’ DAY!”

Right on MikeG. This bitch is just doing it for the attention and the press. I am soooo over this.
I don’t understand how TMZ would have a diagnosis. Shouldn’t we wait to have a doctor diagnose it. Also, I was wondering can you just wake up one day and have a Multiple Personality Disorder or is it something that you are born with. I don’t know at first read it just seem like a convenient excuse to get out of a deposition. If it is true, again, how was it diagnosed. So her friends are around her and see her go into this and just do - nothing? Do they just laugh at it.
So many questions when it comes to this Britney girl
“…it just seem like a convenient excuse to get out of a deposition” Word! It is just an excuse.
*
“If it is true, again, how was it diagnosed. So her friends are around her and see her go into this and just do - nothing? Do they just laugh at it.” My thoughts exactly. How do they know? And they prob do just laugh at her, and let her be crazy.
WHO CARES??? FOR THE SAKE OF HER FAMILY, HER BOYS, SOCIETY AT LARGE, AND EVEN BRITNEY HERSELF, LET’S RUN WITH THIS BULLSH*T SELF-SERVING PIECE OF PROPAGANDA AND GET HER COMMITTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know, I was thinking about this and if this is true, I believe there at least has to be more wrong with her. Think: If she claims to have these personalities, where she can’t recall what happens while she is “the british girl” then when she comes back to Britney wouldn’t she think “oh my god, what have I done?”?? If the original Britney is seeing the results of “the british girl”’s choices, shouldn’t that be enough for her to realize she has made some huge mistakes and needs to get help?? This doesn’t add up.
It’s not like a three whole people in her head. IT’s one person, and the different “personalities” are different sides of the person. Just because she talks in a Brittish accent, that doesn’t mean that she has multiple personality disorder. This is a girl who loves to show off, and cause controvercy. There is lost time in multiple personality, however once the person becomes aware of the problem they have the ability to ask for help. Britney’s antics, whether or not she remebers them, and whether or not she chooses to remember them have been so documented, that she can not claim to not know she has this problem. If she truly has the problem, then it’s a good thing her kids were taken away because she hasn’t done anything to get better.
Gotcha
britney has more STDs below the waist than she does different personalities in her head.
Did you ever see that episode of SNL where Garth Brooks played 007 and he wnet to the doctor only to find out that he had STD’s they don’t have names for. Even and STD only found in crocodiles.
Seriously, it would be very shocking to learn that she doesn’t have any STD’s, and it wouldn’t be surprising if she did die from AIDS. Britney wants to be a porn star. Sometime look up how many porn stars have died from AIDS; it’s quite the long list.
“…Did you ever see that episode of SNL where Garth Brooks played 007 and he wnet to the doctor only to find out that he had STD’s they don’t have names for…”
.
No, I don’t own a TV. And how you tubers who do can put up with all this britney exposure is beyond me, because I’m sick of it and I’m probably only seeing & hearing half of what you guys are.
.
“…Even and STD only found in crocodiles…”
.
Wow. Maybe I should get a TV. That sounds like something I would write here about britney…a crocodile STD…an STD from a diseased crocodile that was found in the swamps that doubled as a toxic waste dump….perhaps…
I saw the pic, but how can anyone tell from that pic that she was menustrating?
If you are a girl, you will understand what leakage looks like.
If you saw the pic it was a clear view of a pad that was leaking and covered in red. If she wasn’t, then she wants us to think she was. It’s so convenient that she’s been wearing pants every day for several weeks, and then the day she chooses to wear a mini skirt that doesn’t cover her genitals, she’s on the rag.
Where are these pics? And what is this story about blood about?
X 17…..GO LOOK
I did. And she did it on purpose. Even though she may act dumb as nails, she is very calculating. She is doing all this shit for the press, and I am not going to comment on any new Britney stories.
I’ve bled before. It happens.
Naturally, when I’m on my period I stay curled up in pjs smoking ripe bowls and watching movies… not working trashy desperation a la fishnets….
you mean you don’t think about going out flashing with no underwear or a thong?
You are right though, leakage happens - its part of life. Of course most people use more coverage but then most people aren’t BS. Don’t her friends ever say, Yo Britney you are smelling. Take a bath, lay down. Awww, who am I kidding. The “friends” she has with her could care less it is all fun and games and she is a grown woman who knows better
Dissociative Identity Disorder doesn’t just show up one day. It’s present from childhood, and it’s the result of repeated severe trauma (abuse, most commonly sexual abuse) from which there is no escape. The child creates alternate personalities in order to fragment the abuse and be able to survive it.
.
I don’t believe for a moment that she’s a multiple.
.
I wouldn’t doubt that the source for this article is Britney, herself, doing yet another bizarre manic thing, trying to get sympathy, cover up for her bullshit, making excuses, ad nauseum.
Dito.
britney?…simply a spoiled (and soiled) skank.
I saw the latest, the pictures of Britney having her period. I’m really not grossed out. I have a period once a month. I’ve had embarrassing moments. But if you respect your period, you don’t wear mini skirts and white underwear and invite the papsmears to take intimate photographs! Go home, smoke a bowl Britney. That’s what I do when I’m on my period. It helps.
Everyone has embarrassing moments, but this isn’t an embarassing moment. This is Britney showing her entire menstral soaked pad to the world, of the pad wasn’t on then she would have been walking around with her vagina hanging out. That’s not normal, so quit making excuses for her.
Oh…opps, I just reread that and saw that you weren’t making excuses, sorry.
Yeah Britney, go smoke some drugs, that’ll prove to the judge that you are worthy of your children. Not like anything else helps either.
Smoke a bowl? Umm, okay. There are other things that she could do. The possibilities are endless. She decided to go out on purpose to flash. That’s just the type of person she is. Lack of character
She had an accident like every woman on the planet with a menstrual cycle and x17 shouldn’t have published the photos. However, you can’t say Britney didn’t expect to be photographed. The girl, or rather grown woman and mother of two, needs to learn how to wear pants or a skirt that covers her vagina. It’s not that hard to do. That’s what makes this so disgusting and sad. Britney has a choice. She can choose to leave her house dressed like a decent human being but instead she chooses to come out with nothing on except for fishnet stockings during her period. And what makes this truly disgusting is that she was trying on clothes at a department store while her panties were soaked in blood. Then again why should we be surprised? She’s not in a mental state to care about anyone (including her children) so why would she think twice about rubbing her vaginal fluids onto new clothes that other people will buy? Gross.
The description of her so called “personalities” sounds a bit wierd. It’s interesting that the person claims to have talked to her about the so called missing time, but doesn’t seem to have gotten her any help. Generally you would say what you did to get the person help, rather than jsut say they had the problem. And generally the other personalities have names, so either this is a lie, or this person isn’t familiar with Britney when she is in the alternate state. It’s too convenient, that she misses a court date, and now suddenly this person comes out about this via TMZ as an unnamed source. Why didn’t they put their name on the line?
Anyway, multiple personality still takes a great deal of therapy and this would probably mean that Britney should leave the spotlight. I don’t doubt that she has an identity crisis, but that’s because she’s been training to be a celeb since she was three. She hasn’t lived a normal life, so the thought of being out of the spotlight must be very frightening because she does not know who she is. So if this is multiple personality, then being in the spotlight can only make things worse for her.
Whatever her problem is, it’s clear that she has problems, and that those close to her know that. And anyone hanging out with her other than to escort her to a mental health clinic is causing her more harm than good. It’s really sad that they now have to play games to try to convince the public that she has what ever mental illness will make people pity her the most. The girl is extremly sick, but just aware enough to be a manipulitive and deceitful person.
I’m convinced that Britney thinks that if she can’t see her nether regions, nobody else can!
In her mind, showing off her stained pants was probably a way to show she wasn’t pregnant. Would anyone be surprised by that kind of show? I know I wouldn’t any more..
“…How about “no pants when I have my period girl…”
.
DAMN!!!!! I WAS GONNA DO THAT ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here’s britney’s strategy to get her kids back:
.
Hold them hostage
.
Defy court mandated instructions which must be complied with in order to get the kids back
.
Party every night
.
Steal
.
Speed, run red lights and stop signs, make illegal u-turns, park in handicapped parking spots
.
Scream obscenities at just about everybody
.
Run over cops and paps. Ram into cars and leave without reporting the accident to the owner of the parked car
.
Public indecency and exposure
.
Abuse multiple types of amphetamines
.
Shop incessantly
.
Sleep with married men
.
And say, “Oh, by the way, I”M CRAZY!!!!!”
Yup. That’s America’s sweethart right there. The princess of pop. A role model for her dumbass fans.
Yes, this is the fourth BS excuse they’ve given for why she can’t make it to court: “Oh it’s the anxiety attack,” “No, it’s the papz, she couldn’t get past them to the building,” “No wait, she was waiting for her furniture to be delivered,” “No, it wasn’t her fault, it was the Britttish personality.”
She thinks she can get away with all of this, because so far, other than taking away custody and visitation rights which she assumes will be given back to her, she has yet to be punished by the court for her misdeeds. April is coming Britney, you can play your games, and you can decide not to seek treatment for what ever your problem is, but when the April court date happens, the shit will hit the fan.
“…but when the April court date happens, the shit will hit the fan…”
.
Exactly. This stuff might play out in the press, and who knows, she could be doing it for nothing but the headlines, but if she tries to pull a multiple personalities defense, the courts will say “prove it”, and then hopefully the world will be at peace BECAUSE THIS B*TCH IS GOING TO THE NUT HOUSE!!!!!!
.
hehehe, tell her it’s a “nut house” and she just might want to go!!!!!!
.
britney: Nutz? Ah like dem nuts cuz dey have dat big squirty thang at da end”
I call total bull shit on this. Not saying that I don’t believe in MPD, however, there is controversery that it even exists. This is one of the reasons why. People use it as an excuse of why they forgot something they did and it is all too conveneint that they are using her deposition as an example. Furthermore, MPD manifests itself normally from extreme truamitc events for a prolonged period of time, usually some kind of physical or sexual abuse.
I agree with you entirely. I just want to point out that it’s actually officially Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) rather than Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD). It was reclassified from a personality disorder to a dissociative disorder because, well, that’s what it is. It’s the very far end of a spectrum of dissociation disorders (which are caused, as you note, by significant and repeated trauma).
.
Dissociation Disorders are not organic like Bipolar Disorder. It’s not brain chemistry. It’s a learned reaction to trauma that becomes habitual.
.
Anyway, not arguing. Just being pedantic. (Must be my Librarian personality, eh? Hey, I can make up stupid shit just like Britney, and I don’t even have to be in a manic state to do it! ;))
Also it’s HIGHLY HIGHLY UNUSUAL FOR THE PERSON TO HAVE MORE THAN THREE PERSONALITIES. THE TMZ REPORT IDENTIFIES AT LEAST FIVE PERSONALATIES, IF NOT MORE AS THEY SAY LIST HER PERSONALITIES AS “THE WEEPY GIRL, THE INCOHERENT GIRL, THE DIVA, AND ON AND ON.”
SO WE ARE TO BELIEVE THAT NOT ONLY DOES BRITNEY HAVE A DISORDER SO CONTROVERCIAL AND RARE, THAT THERAPISTS DEBATE IT’S EXISTANCE, BUT THAT SHE IS ALSO PLAGUED BY THE EVEN RARER EVENT OF HAVING MORE THAN THREE PERSONALITIES.
IF THIS IS TRUE THAN SHE IS IN SERIOUS SHIT AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THE KIDS BACK UNTIL THIS IS TAKEN CARE OF, BUT IT IS WAY MORE LIKELY THAT SHE PLAYED TMZ JUST LIKE SHE PLAYED THEM WITH THE PREGNANVY TEST. LYING, IMMATURE, MANIPULATIVE BRAT THAT SHE IS.
Does britney have at least 5 STDs-yes
.
5 personalities-no
.
5 bars of soap-no
.
5 pair of panties-OH HELL NO!!!!
.
5 cell phones-yes
.
5 different types of prescribed amphetamines-yes
.
5 fans left-no
.
5 imaginary boyfriends-yes
.
5 different areas of highly concentrated facial acne-yes
.
5 is the highest number she can count to provided she has 1 through 4 written on the back of her hand-yes, as long as she can remember which hand is left, which one is right, which one she had her assistant write 1 through 4 on, and what 1 through 4 means besides being a bunch of squiggly lines…not much hope for this b*tch…
.
5 lawyers, managers, or personal assistants who quit-yes (at least)
lmao, you are so fuckin funny!
Thanks Crista! By the way, I threw in a surprise for you in one of the AJ comments.
It has been years since colloge for me, so I didn’t even know it’s classification was changed . . .I need a refresher course! Anyhoo, she’s yup, she’s still a skank. Ironically, all her personalities are a skank. :)
shortirox for president of the british britney fan club. I am already president of the other five personalty britney fan clubs!VIVA LA SPEARS CINCO!
Yeah, I know. Like I said, I was just being pedantic. ;)
“…all her personalities are a skank…”
.
SCORE!!!!!!!!! Shortirox earns a few SUCK IT points for that one, which he or she is free to use on any fantard.
.
“…I was just being pedantic…”
.
I’m jealous.
Yes, and she can BS and pretend all she wants, but sooner or later she’s going to have to take a psychological test, and a therapist can tell when someone fakes bad. They have these exams that have maybe around three hundred questions and built in to that is a scale to test if you are lying.
Sounds like the MMPI version 2, but that probably wouldn’t be the only one she takes. Besides, the results would never be accurate because britney isn’t smart enough to fill out the test correctly.
.
“Lookit y’allz, ah made purty pictures wit all da little dots in here! Where mah crayonz???!!! I WANNA FRAP!!! FRAPPA FRAPPA FRAPPA!! MONGO LIKE CANDY!!”
Yup. That’s America’s sweethart right there. The princess of pop. A role model for her dumbass fans.
First, I am NOT Britney fan. Nor and I making excuses for her AT ALL. I am repulsed by the way she has been acting lately. And I am torn between thinking she has a severe mental illness and thinking that perhaps she has just decided that, after years of being told what to do, she’s gonna do it HER way now. But in regards to the DID, it is possible that she has suffered things that we don’t know. For most of her young life she was subjected to things that would have been difficult for an adult to deal with, ie. constant traveling, being forced to go out and perform in front of hundreds and thousands of people, being made to dance and sing to the point of exhaustion (I’m sure). She had no down time, and no childhood. Those things are not in the same league with sexual and physical abuse. But one could argue that those things could be VERY traumatic to a child or teenager. MAYBE she developed the DID years ago as a way to cope with all of it, and it’s just now showing itself to the rest of us. Just and idea. Like I said I’m NOT a fan and I’m not sticking up for her…so DON’T SHOOT!
Being in Hollywood is not the type of trauma that would cause this type of disorder. Now it’s possible that her she suffered severe abuse that we do not know.
MOST PROBABLY: this is a girl who has always had a fascination with England because supposedly her grandmother is Brittish, and yet this girl is not Brittish enough to have ever have visited England except dring one of her tours. We have heard for years now that she wants to run away toEngland because she thinks she can get out of Hollywood and away from all of her troubles. She even wanted to name her daughter, if she had one, London. She didn’t have a girl so she named the dog that. Get it, it’s another one of her stupid puns: London is in Brittany. Now suddenly she’s dating a man raised in England and she’s talking in a fake Brittish accent and we are suddenly told that the reason she didn’t do something that was highly unpleasant to her was because she has several personalities, and she just happened to have the one personality where she can’t remeber shite on the day of the hearing. It’s possibel she developed DID, but that is an extremly, extremly rare disorder. So rare that statistically speaking, it is more likely that the always dishonest BRitney is once again being dishonest. Any way, it doens’t get her off the hook for missing her courrt date. It only proves that she is too mentally ill to take care of her children, and if true, then she’s been aware of this problem for a long time (per pictures) and has CHOSEN not to seek treatment for it.
what was that kelly 1 ? is that your professional opinion?
Damn, people….everybody has their own style. Just because Kelly 1’s is psychoanalytical and she also backs up her statements with historical content to support her ideas DOESN’T mean she thinks she knows it all. That’s just her style. Thinking they “know it all” is one of the primary traits of the fantard, and that ain’t happening here.
.
Personally, I was impressed with Kelly 1’s post. I never made the entire british connection, and I doubt anyone else did either. Right or wrong, Kelly 1 connected the dots and came up with something. And I’m being serious here, I’m not being sarcastic or sucking up, even though both can make for some fun reading (drool).
.
Kelly 1, I have just three recommendations for you, humbly and faithfully submitted. You are free to do with them what you wish, even ignore them if you want to.
.
1) Look into grad school or law school. Both require a lot of writing, and will also train you to construct your arguments and supportive statements (which already comes naturally for you) in a manner which should reduce misunderstanding on the part of the reader. It also trains you in critical thinking and logic, which you can then use to ABSOLUTELY RIP THE FANTARD’S ARGUMENTS TO SHREDS!!!! Personally, I like using all caps and the phrase “SUCK IT”, but hey, to each his (or her) own.
2) If you don’t want to go to grad school or law school, then at least consider using ALL CAPS and a phrase like “SUCK IT”. Perhaps then they’ll get the idea that you’re style doesn’t mean you think you know everything. Plus, ALL CAPS TURNS ME ON!!!!!! YEAH BABY!!!!!
3) Cheerleader outfit or daisy dukes. Just sayin’…
But really, think about #3 (drool). Lord knows I do…..
A lot…..
I don’t think she was “forced” to perform. In fact, didn’t her family actually make sacrifices as far as their time together so that she could chase her dream?
She was performing at a young age, but she also had friends her age, boyfriends, etc. She got to do a lot of “childhood” things.
It is true she could have suffered things we don’t know. But there is still a level of responsibility that she must take for decisions she made
She sure didn’t act forced to perform. There may have been some controlling behaviours on the part of Lynne, but it’s clear that BRitney wanted this for her life. Certainly once she turned 18, she could have announced to the world that she never wanted to be a star and/or stepped out of the spot light gracefully. Her fans are beggin her to go away for at least a little while, so they would have understood. At least they would have preferred that over Brit self destructing.
The sort of trauma that causes severe dissociation is along the lines of repeated rape and torture. The pressures that Britney faced doing the performace stuff might have led to all sorts of stuff (off the top of my head I’d suggest panic/anxiety disorder, various stress related disorders, and a great deal of neurotic behaviour), but not to DID.
.
I quite honestly think she’s Bipolar. She’s got absolutely all the signs. This latest crap about being multiple probably came from Britney, herself, and she’s doing it to toy with the public and to cover up for her stupid and ridiculous behaviour that is most likely caused by mania.
Well, at least we know she’s definitly not pregnant…heh VERY nasty tho no matter how you look at it! She’s a grown woman, she doesn’t need excuses, she needs to take responsibility for herself…she’s like a 16 year old running around with no parents or guidance. She was more mature acting at 20 than she is at 25..amazing.
Well, why ever she choose to be photographed without pants while on her period….that can and will be used in a court of law to show that she should not be a parent. How is she going to change diapers, or potty train her boys, or make sure that they are appropriately taken care of, if she’s too sick to take care of her basic feminine hygiene in a mature and healthful manner?
I have wondered if DID was something she didn’t suffer from. It’s nothing to mess with. I know my only knowledge of it comes from Viki on One Life to Live, but I also know she researched it thoroughly and played it out as though she had it…did a great job…it’s won her lots of daytime emmy awards….it’s NOTHING to mess with and if this is true, she needs to get help, cause some of these other personalities, IF this is true, could be very dangerous!!!
Unless she had a childhood that included severe abuse on a regular basis, it’s pretty unlikely.
Yeah, I got to thinking about it at lunch…as far as we know, there was no really OUTRAGEOUS (no pun intended), TRAUMATIC thing that happened to her. As far as we know, the wasn’t molested or raped as a young child, or something that she’d have to had created an alter ego cause she couldn’t cope.
Well, she has not admitted to SEVERE TRAUMA, so how can she have a mental illnes that is caused by severe trauma? Up until her parents got divorced, this chic had all her fans believing that she had the picture perfect childhood.
“severe abuse” is something britney is inflicting on all of us, especially if she flashes her vag again.
IU know, right, And all peopl want is for her to just go away. What’s wrong with that? Even her fans and the professionals in the industry agree that that is what is needed for her so called “come back” to work.
““the weepy girl, the diva, the incoherent girl,” and on and on.”
Those aren’t multiple personalities! They’re the stages of drunkeness!
HA HA…yeah….usually, the personalities all come out and have names…
I.E. Viki Lord Riley Buchanan something something Buchanan Davidson (from One Life)….when she was a child, her father raped her, and when she couldn’t handle that, Nikki Smith was created, and SHE took the brunt of it. And then there’s her other alters…Tommy, and the other BIG one is lost to me…but she kept Dorian trapped in a secret room about 15 years ago…but she’s got like 4 or 5, and they all have distinguishing charactheristics and they all have their own names. Watching Erika Slezak play out the storyline was amazing…but it’s nothing to take lightly.
JEAN RANDOLPH….omg….can’t believe I forgot HER…she was SCARRRY!!!
That’s not actually true. Well, they generally have something they’re called, but it might not be a name. One documented case had an alternate personality called “Strawberry Girl”, and others will have names like “The Outrider” or “Black Katherine” or similar (those are all names from actual documented cases, by the way).
.
The idea of an alternate personality is that you create, through a form of self-hypnosis, another “person” who will be there to step in and receive the abuse, or to carry on for you when you’re unable to because you’re so traumatised, and so forth.
.
When the trauma continues and there is no escape from it, the child starts to build these into more permanent features of how they function in the world.
.
It really does take tremendous abuse to even begin to induce this sort of reaction, and not that many people have the psychological makeup to do it, anyway (most abuse victims don’t become multiple, in other words).
.
It’s quite a fascinating and controversial topic. Lots written on it. It takes a pretty strong stomach to read some of the literature, though, because it can really make you sick to hear about the abuse someone had to endure. :(
.
Anyway, I think it’s damned unlikely that Britney Spears endured anything like that. I do think she was poorly handled by her pushy stage mother, and she was put into the business far too young and with far too little education and life experience, but that’s not the sort of thing that leads to severe chronic dissociation.
“…They’re the stages of drunkeness…”
.
Excellent point. They could also be coping mechanisms for someone who never matured emotionally or rationally.
Ok, so the mpd might be true, but who really knows right? I mean, the people that say they are her friends aren’t doing anything to try and talk her into seeking help,and a doctor is the only one who can diagnose any of this. I am really getting tired of this whole thing. I bet if the damn paps would just not show when she calls, or just didn’t bother, she would go away for good. Can’t we make that happen? Please?
I don’t know a whole lot about DID. I do know about depression though, as I’ve suffered through for around 10 years. Not manic depression though. But I’m thinking that if this is not DID it is, perhaps, manic depression. She is clearly suffering from some sort of mental illness. And I suspect it has a lot to do with her childhood and teen years. BUT I agree, it does NOT excuse her behavior at all. She really needs to get herself together, soon. If not I’m afraid of where she will end up. I glad that her children have been taken away. Because she is obviously not in the right place (mentally and emotionally) to raise two little boys. I know because I’m raising my own two little boys right now. And you have to be strong and stable for that. Kevin Federline is not father of the year, at least not that I can see. But at least he’s not seen out at all hours of the night, half dressed, and mumbling incoherently. I guess if his only faults are that he occasionally smokes some pot (not around the kids) and parties. And watches football while the kids play with the nannies…it’s 10x better than them being with Britney right now!
I guess that one cannot really discuss Erika Slezak or her character Victoria without speaking of her alters at least once. When I refer to her alters I am of course talking about the 6 alternate personalities that are living inside Viki’s mind. These alters have given us some extremely interesting storylines over the years.
As most One Life To Live viewers know, Viki’s DID (Disociative Identity Disorder) was caused by years of sexual abuse that Vicki suffered at the hands of her father Victor Lord, Llanview’s infamous newspaper Tycoon. For years Viki was tormented by an alternate personality who called her self Niki (Nicole) Smith. Niki was very reckless, trampy and crude, the complete opposite of Viki…
When Niki Smith first emerged it was because Viki was trying to please Victor and it took quite a toll on Viki. Niki took over and fell in love with Llanview’s Vince Wolek, a garage machanic. Viki spent many years battling her alternate personality Niki.
Viki had been living for several years without Niki smith, but that all came to an end in January of 1995 when Viki finally learned the awful truth about her father and her mind split off into 6 personalities to help her cope with her pain.
It all started when Viki had just learned that David Vicker’s was a fraud. He had pretended to be Viki’s half brother in order to obtain a 27.8 million dollar trust fund. Since David had lied to Viki about being her brother she also suspected that the evidence that he bought forward that cleared Dorian from death-row was also a fake. In a rage Viki went to Dorian’s house to confront her. They argued bitterly.
Viki repeatedly accuese Dorian of murdering her father but Dorian denied it. It was then that Dorian blurted out the truth to Viki. She told Viki that her father had sexually abused her when she was a child. At that point Viki’s life changed forever. As she sat down on Dorian’s couch, Viki left and a new personality took over. Viki suddenly became a young boy named “Tommy”. As Dorian walked up the stairs “Tommy” came after her and threw her down the stairs.
Afterwards, Tommy sat down and another personality emerged, “Jean Randolph,” the snappy dressing sophisticate. Jean quickly moved Dorian’s body to her mountain cabin and chained her to the wall. When Dorian finally awoke she met Jean. Jean explained to Dorian that she emerged in order to help Vicki and that she would do whatever was nescesary to protect Victoria. Jean then sedated Dorian and moved her into Victor Lord’s secret room, which Jean had rebuilt with several additions, room was sound proofed with a large Plexi-glass partition to keep Dorian from escaping.
Dorian feared that she would spend the rest of her life in that secret room. In order to free herself, Dorian made a deal with Jean that she would not say anything about the sexual abuse that Vicki had suffered. In exchange, Jean promised Dorian that she would see to it that Dorian was not retried for Victor Lords murder and put on death row again. Jean also promised that she would steal Irene Mannings forged diary from the police evidence room (which she later did with the help of Tommy). As more and more time went by Jean became increasingly weaker and unable to control the other alters. When Todd confronted Jean and told her that he was Victor Lords son, Niki Smith emerged.
Dorian soon had to deal with another alter. A 7 year old girl named “Princess”. Dorian first met Princess at the cemetary when Princess was visiting her mothers grave. Princess was very frightened and disorientated. Dorian acted almost motherly towards her and she was able to bring Jean back. Jean lasted several more days until Jean had a confronation with Tina. This confrontation caused Nicki to emerge. Niki then went to the airport were she met Todd and bought him several drinks. After Todd left, Niki met a man at the bar. Nicki had several vodka’s and agreed to go back to the mans hotel room. While Niki was in the room with this stranger, he began to become very agressive. Niki became frightened and Princess emerged. As Princess began to cry the man left the hotel room.
Dorian was able to locate Viki/princess and she bought her back to Llanfair. She proceeded to take Princess to the secret room so that no one would find them. Princess became more upset which caused Tommy to emerge. Dorian was able to lock Tommy in the secret room and go back to her house. As Dorian was about to go back to Llanfair, she opened her door and Tommy was standing there. Dorian bought Tommy into her house and gave him a Ginger Ale with a powerful sedative in it. Jean then emerged and Dorian encouraged her to seek therapy. Jean turned her back and suddenly another personality emerged. This time a cheerful woman named “Tori” took over for Jean. Tori explained to Dorian that she wanted to expose the secret of Victor’s abuse.
Although Tori seemed harmless at first we all soon learned that she was very unstable. She tried to sabotage the banner by destroying the printing press and giving secret information to Todd. Tori eventually burned down Llanfair. On the day of Bo and Nora’s wedding, Tori pretended to have a fever so that she could stay home. When everyone was out of the house, Tori poured gasoline onto the furniture in the secret room and torched it. What Tori was not aware of however, was the fact that Jessica had come home after a fight with Clint and was still in the house. Tori went upstairs to the master bedroom and torched it. She then lit the rest of the house on fire and went outside to watch it burn.
Jessica began to scream for help. Tori decided to leave her in the house but Viki overpowered her and emerged to save her daughter. Viki went into the house and bought Jessica downstairs. Viki was then hospitalized for smoke inhalation. Tori lied to Clint and sent him to Atlanta to follow up on a lead that Tori had made up. With Clint out of the way, Tori went back to the ruins of Llanfair and she started to fall apart. She told her children that she wanted to destroy Llanfair and the Lord family.
She hit Kevin over the head with a vase and went to Dorians house. She demanded that Dorian help her find an arsonist to burn down the Banner. Clint returned and walked in on Tori as she was about to torch the Banner. Clint told her that he knew what was going on and that she was not Viki. When Andy and Kevin arrived Tori pulled out a gun. She confessed everything to Clin
