I've noticed a whole lot of people confuse schizophrenia with multiple personality disorder. Two completely different conditions. Why?

I just wonder how it happened. It's very common for people to associate schizophrenia with MPD, and there really isn't much similarity at all between the two conditions.
Hollywood?

Because schizophrenia was falsely described as "split personality" in the old days,it is nothing of the sort it is a psychotic disorder,the personality of a person suffering from this condition is not split it is shattered by the nature of the disorder.
