By insisting to women that they MUST have been abused (when they had no memory of it), which some unethical therapists did (based on symptoms), opened the door to the backlash which has HURT survivors.

The word "all" didn't enter into it. There is plenty of evidence that SOME people's belief they had MPD/DID was influenced by therapists. The patients said so themselves. Are they not to be believed? This was not the only case. http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/June-1998/Dangerous-Therapy-The-Story-of-Patricia-Burgus-and-Multiple-Personality-Disorder/ …

Am open to evidence on that. Suspect it is rare (used to be before the 80s-90s craze), and its etiology complex, with both iatrogenic and trauma-based factors playing it.

That site assiduously avoids linking to any of the (many) peer-reviewed papers that do show an iatrogenic relationship. Not going to throw the baby out with the bathwater, but will take a look.

That's the point--they avoided linking to any studies that DO indicate an iatrogenic aspect. Questioning aspects of a diagnosis doesn't equal "attacking" people who have the diagnosis. That's what trans activists say when people want to discuss gender.

This is one of many. Saying there is "no evidence" for iatrogenicity means not looking at it. http://ww1.cpa-apc.org/Publications/Archives/CJP/2004/october/piper.pdf …
