A 23-year-old woman claims she has 15 personalities and must buy Christmas presents for all of them. Kimi Sands suffers from a rare condition called Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), which results in her different personalities taking control of her body at any given time. She has spent hundreds of pounds buying gifts for all 15 of her personas, which include Japanese chef Satou, 22, exercise-addict Fiona, 17, and four-year-old twins Jack and Safyer. Ms Sands, 23 from Cardiff, said: Christmas is a bit more expensive for me than for others because obviously I have so many people to buy for. Including myself, there are 16 individuals to get presents for. These can be anything from alcohol for the older personalities to teddies for the kids. Ms Sands condition, DID, is commonly known as multiple personality disorder. People who have DID can experience shifts of identity as separate personalities and each identity may be in control of their behaviour and thoughts at different times each with a distinctive pattern of thinking, needs and desires. She can become personas such as Yorkshire man Ashy, 23, flamboyant Essex-born Koumi, 17, genderless Finn, 14, and a party-loving bisexual called Theodore, aged 15. Ms Sands partner, Chris Lee, 24, said the festive season can be a struggle for the couple financially as there are so many individuals to buy presents for. He said: Its hard. Were a couple but at the same time, we have this internal family. Youve got to pay for gifts for everyone else, he said.
