In this deeply insightful episode of Behavior Bitches, we’re diving into the world of dissociative identity disorder (DID) with a special guest, Matthew Fanning, whose wife lived with 21 distinct personalities. Through the lens of behavior analysis, we explore how DID impacts daily life, the misconceptions surrounding the condition, and the role of environmental contingencies in shaping behavior across personalities. This episode is packed with real-life experiences, behavioral insights, and actionable advice for fostering understanding and empathy.

**Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse.
