Programs?  Or something like that @colliemom4.  I just caught bits and pieces, but it was something strange that she used.

@Jackhound Mom Sybil was/is based on a real person.  Dissociative Disorder is very rare.  Caused by extreme and or chronic trauma where in order for the person/victim to survive he/she splits off or disconnects from their body,feelings,emotions the event as a protective mechanism.

If one thinks they have it, they don't.  I was referred a client who claimed she has this disorder......her therapist was done with her and sent her to me.

Oprah had split personalities on all the time. Never forget 'Trudie' she went thru horrendous abuse . What made her split off in order to survive.

3 Faces of Eve turned out to be a hoax ! Made a movie on the subject and everything, then, just lately they said it never happened in first place.

@SharkEare you talking about Truddi Chase?  She was a faker?  I never heard that.  Would you be able to direct me to where I can read more on that?

@MickD

Thank you Mick!  I thought it was true and I get that the people who have it don't know they have it.  They just lose time and have gaps with lots of questions but no answers.  It would be terrifing to go through life like that.  

Is there a specialty doctor for this because it is so rare?

@Jackhound Mom I googled and there are psychiatrsts out there that treat this disorder.....looks like usually in conjunction with comorbid treatment of abuse, PTSD, etc....makes sense.

Programs   We lasted about 10 minutes, it was very unbelieveable to me JMHO.

Has any else noticed how hoarse Dr. Phill's voice has been?  Also his extremly long pauses between his words when speaking to a guest.  It's almost like he is fearful he will make a mistake or someone is telling him what to say.  Very unsettling.

The best line he delivered was a few weeks ago to a young man that had insulted his physique.  Phill's quick and witty answer was "Don't let the suit fool you!!!"  I loved it!  That's the old Dr. Phil

I don’t watch Dr Phil every day but I’ve been noticing a striking difference in him. He’s only 67 but he’s been acting like he is very elderly. From everything you said with the weak voice and hesitating and he looks down much of the time instead of using eye contact. I noticed he’s very hunched over and has a glass of water beside him and often see him taking a drink. These are all things he didn’t used to do before and he appears much more feeble. I could understand taking a drink when they go to break but he drinks right on camera. And his guests don’t have water beside them. I’m not wanting to sound like I’m making fun of him—but there is such a remarkable difference.

He's a diabetic now he said. Might have something to do with it. If I had to sit everyday and listen to those idiots I'd hang myself. Don't know how he does it. He doesn't have to work any more. I'd hang it up. Those smart mouth kids would have me swallowing pills LOL

[sophiamarie]

On yesterday's show, he didn't have anyone else on except the one girl for the whole hour.  At the end, he says "I want to thank all my guests".  LOL  

I found it strange that he didn't have any of her friends or relatives, or even a skype with someone.
