Ethnic identity disorder is a conflict between a person's actual physical ethnicity and the one they actually identify him or herself as. For example, a person identified as a white suburbanite may actually feel and act like an inner city black kid.

The idea that two semi-attractive females have an increased sexual desirability due to being identical twins. (It is similar in concept to the cheerleader effect).
Guy 1: yo check it out hot twins at our 9 o'clock. I'd do 'em.
Guy 2: you mean those two semi-ugly bitches? hell no!
Identical Twin Theory in effect.

DID is a complex and quite rare condition where more than one personality exists within you. You may in fact be unaware of this and usually other people will tell you of your other identities. Each identity within you has their own pattern of thinking and behaving, and this may be quite different from your own established patterns. In fact, each separate personality controls your behaviours and thoughts at the times they are present.
Dissociation is a mental process of disconnecting from your thoughts, feelings, memories or sense of identity.
The causes of DID are as complex as the condition, but mental health professionals agree that ongoing trauma in childhood is the leading contributor. The trauma causes the child to “disconnect” from what is happening to them during the times of extreme stress. Trauma can include repeated emotional, physical or sexual abuse that usually begins before a child is five years of age, and during that time there is no adult around who provides comfort or safety.
Children remain dissociated into their teens and adulthood. This can lead to other problems as they struggle to make sense of the world around them.
If you have DID, you may experience depression, mood swings, anxiety and panic attacks, suicidal thoughts and feelings, self-harm, headaches, hearing voices, sleep disorders, phobias, alcohol and drug abuse, obsessive-compulsive behaviour and various physical health problems.
Treatment for DID is based on your personal needs and aspirations. It can take time working with a specialist in DID care to make progress and help you achieve your goals, but you can achieve significant progress in taking control of your life.
Signs to look for (symptoms)
Things you may feel include:
Feeling disconnected from your emotions (emotionally numb).
Feeling detached from what is happening around you, like you are watching a movie of yourself.
Feeling as though the world is distorted or not real.
Having problems remembering things, and having gaps in your memory (losing time).
Sudden and unexpected shifts in mood, eg, feeling very sad for no reason.
Hearing voices, or smelling or seeing things that only you can see or smell.
Feeling as though there are different people inside you.
Referring to yourself as “we”.
Being unable to recognise yourself in a mirror.
Significant memory lapses such as forgetting important personal information.
Knowing about things you don’t remember learning, like driving.
Not recognising places or people that others think you should.
It’s often those nearest people experiencing DID who will see signs that the person they are currently talking to does not have the same personality and mannerisms that the person they were speaking to yesterday, or that morning, or even a few moments ago had.
Dissociative Identity Disorder is not to be confused with Multiple personality Disorder.

"Crook" or "gangster", expressed in a way that won't get you sued for libel, as used mainly in the Australian press.

Otherwise known as IDD, a relatively rare disorder characterized by a notable lack of original, which is to say, innovative, interesting or humorous ideas. Like Rabies, the first symptom of this "disease" is a developing fear in the victim that they may indeed be a sufferer. This leads the sufferer of IDD to develop various tactics and strategies for masking this deficit of metaphysical presence, for example, keeping one's mentor(s) in the closet and isolated from one's social circles so that one's frequent parroting of the mentor's wisdom and witticisms is not detected and can be passed off as one's own. Another common tactic of a sufferer of IDD is the practice of recycling of endearments.
The character Howard Crick played by Will Farrell in the popular film, Stranger than Fiction (2006) provides us with as good an example as any of a person suffering from what might be termed "identity deficit disorder".
What Derrida has effectively accused all thinkers of suffering from when he proved that metaphysical presence is mere illusion.
Tommy frequently recycled the ideas and suggestions of his friends and acquaintances. And in this way at least put up a passable appearance of having a personality to call his own. If Tommy ever did have an idea of his very own no one ever knew it since it'd invariably die on the vine before he could tell anyone.

A dubious diagnosis associated with the recovered memory movement in psychology. DID is a pattern of behavior characterized by the learned enactment of different identities, usually including psychologically wounded "inner children." These are claimed to have resulted from repressed childhood involvement in satanic ritual abuse, child porn rings, mind control experiments, or similar extremely severe abuse. The creation of personalities occurs hand-in-hand with the formation of the abuse narrative in the vast majority of cases.
The process of memory/personality creation usually involves the suggestion of a sympathetic and charismatic therapist, but it can also occur within groups of "survivors" on the internet or in self-help groups. The process is likened to a cult, since participants often cut off contact with former friends and relatives who question the bizarre direction of therapy and instead form bonds with other recovered memory "survivors."
Motives for embracing Dissociative Identity Disorder may include the following:
1. Suggestion by an authority figure that recovering abuse memories will lead to healing.
2. Sympathy/attention associated with the victim role (There is high overlap with dramatic/historionic/borderline personality disorders).
3. Involvement in a complex and interesting project, as the client creates personalities to reflect different aspects of her fantasies.
4. Absolution of responsibility for one's problems implied by the victim role.
5. Sexual fetishes or fantasies that would otherwise feel unacceptable can be enacted and attributed to the "memories" of abuse. In fact, studies show that there is a high representation of DID in online groups for ageplay and domination/submission games.
