Abstract
The diagnosis of dissociative identity disorder (DID) has been associated with controversy and remains an area of dispute among clinicians to this day. This review explores the evolution of the diagnosis and how it is currently described and understood in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) and Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Also considered, are recent implications for clinical practice, treatment recommendations and the potential for any medicolegal issues to emerge.
