	Off The Shelf - "Sybil"
		Sybil Dorsett, commonly known only by her first name, to this day remains one of the greatest documented cases of multiple personality disorder (MSD) in the psychology field.
		Due to the years that Dr. Wilbur spent with Sybil and the huge collections of data and psycho-analysis information that she collected on her, it was Sybil's case that brought about a revolution in the psychology field - and spawned revelations on the idea of "I" ("id") and theological discussion as well.
		The book itself is also well-written and since it was written from the standpoint of a friend to the case and not the psychologist who treated her, it is easy to follow, read and rife with laymen's terms that most would have no difficulty in following.

	Sybil : the true story of a woman possessed by sixteen separate personalities
		Sybil, like her parents, is at first resistant to this treatment, largely because of her parents objections and her religion, but decides that it is what would be best for her mentally, thus she chooses to participate.
		Sybil’s mother was denied her dreams as a child, she kept her anger inside and it came out in the form of her becoming schizophrenic.
		Sybil is a remarkable book in the sense that it is an individual and unique story of a woman who has survived unthinkable traumas by creating her own society of family and friends inside herself.

		The pain of such a memory was enough for Sybil to tell herself she could not handle this situation, this memory.

		In what must have been an extremely difficult situation with overwhelming odds, Sybil proves to the world in Schreiber's book that the power of human endurance and heart is limitless, as Sybil makes her joyful, triumphant journey to wholeness and reconciliation.

		Sizemore's response was to argue that choosing to remain unintegrated is selfish and unfair to one's family.
		The Sybil case (book by Schreiber [1973], and TV movie starring Sally Field and Joanne Woodward of Eve fame), after many years of unchallenged rein as the definitive example of MPD/DID, is now being questioned.
		A new book by a psychiatric historian, Peter Swales, and Borch-Jacobsen, is expected to provide some answers to this debate over Sybil's history and diagnosis, according to the June 5, 1999 startribune.com (thanks to the Junk Science web site for finding this story).

	Fright Site, Sybil Movie Review
		SYBIL remains a superbly acted, one-of-a-kind achievement that has yet to be surpassed as the definitive cinematic treatment on multiple personality disorder.
		SYBIL started life as a 1974 bestseller by Flora Rheta Schreiber, an absorbing account of the pseudonymous Sybil's struggles with multiple personality disorder and the 11-year psychiatric treatment that helped to integrate her sixteen personalities into one.
		The book's authenticity has been called into question in recent years, but the real "Sybil," the late Shirley Ardell Mason, insisted up to her death in 1998 that "every word" was true.

	Biography of Sybil Danning
		Sybil's Austrian mother raised her until she married a U.S. Army major, who relocated his new family to the U.S., where her sister, Dolores, was born.
		Sybil’s wisdom is the result of a full, young life experience; from her early labor as dental surgeon assistant; from education and degrees earned in Cosmetology and charm; from years as one of Europe’s and Japan’s top print Models; and finally, her struggle to reach international audiences as both “goddess” and actress.
		Sybil fell in love like never before with the game and what she called "her boys." Sybil had broken yet another ground rule, where no woman has dared to tread, as the first ever co-boss of an all-man-territory, German traditional hockey team of 80 years!

		As I reread the book, I discovered that it is just as exciting and uplifting as it was the first time I read it.
		I told her how I resented her bossing me around and she told me how she resented having to do so as she often took care of me. When I read her book, I discovered that many of her ideas and opinions were very close to mine and her favorite authors were among my favorite.

	Sybil Book Mistake : Cara?
		At the introduction of this book the author explains that they won't use the real name of the girl this is about to protect her privacy.
		Sorry, but I've read "Sybil" a dozen times or more.:-) Sybil's boyfriend, Ramon, is from Bogota, Colombia, and he is the only one who uses the word "cara" when referring to Sybil.
		I just finished reading this book (which I loved) and you must have a different copy.

	Sybil (1976) (TV) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Plot Outline: The true story of a young woman named Sybil, whose childhood was so harrowing to her that she developed at least 13 different personalities.
		I recently saw this on video which was pared down from the original TV-version length of 198 minutes(my copy was roughly two hours and twelve minutes and omitted several strong scenes); I'm fortunate to remember that original version, which had a strong, sensitive ending wherein all Sybil's personalities faced her in the park.
		Many moments resonate with tenderness, although I'm not sure Sybil's eventual exclamation of hatred in remembrance of her abusive mother is conducive to her forgiving the evil woman(the movie seems to treat them one and the same).
