I got these links from the book 'Synaptic Self' in the chapter 'Synaptic Sickness' It is a list of psychological web sites in the U.S.

Anxiety Disorders Association of America www.adaa.org
American Psychiatric Association www.psych.org
American Psychological Association www.apa.org
National Alliance for the Mentally Ill www.nami.org
National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia & Affective Disorder
www.narsad.org
National Alliance for Depressive and Manic-Depressive Association
www.ndmda.org
National Mental Health Association www.nmha.org
World Fellowship for Schizophrenia and Allied Disorders
www.world-schizophreina.org

Under the National Mental Health Assc. they have a link to do with dealing with stress after the tsunami, esp. 'Dealing with Stress After a Natural Disaster' Clik on their page, then go to the 'Tsuanami' link, then the next link with the title 'Dealing with Stress...'

Here's a great site just for learning about psychological theories and theorists. The site is oriented toward education and learning processes, but its theory/theorist listings are a lot more expansive than that.

Thanks, I liked looking into the one by Howard Gardner on Multiple Intelligences, I have looked into this before (not multi-personality) but how different people learn better in different ways.

Wow, if they have a book out dealing with how do relate to people with DID, then it is a much more common diagnosis that I realised.

I wonder how much of it is a 'fad diagnoses'. I know that ADHD and Bi-polar disorder were a favorite fallback diagnosis when all else failed.

DID is not a new fad or new trend, it's a new name for an old disorder. It was formerly known as MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder). Same thing, new name. Just like Bipolar Disorder used to be called Manic Depression.
