Its not just that psychiatrists who don't believe in DID think everyone is faking.Not to mention that DID is so exceedingly rare that there are only a small handful of cases that were considered likely legitimate. I say "likely legitimate" because mental health experts are still split on whether or not DID is real, or if the cases that were considered likely legitimate were people who were faking and just really excellent actors. But, yes, in DID cases that are considered genuine, the identities are completely unaware of each other. It's not like the identities are the cast of Friends and the mind they exist in is the apartment set.
There's very real evidence suggesting that the psychs who are Gung ho about DID misdiagnose people who are sick and gullible.
So it really goes deeper than just fakers. Some people probably are quite mentally ill but have been convinced by an attention seeking quak that they have DID, so they begin to attribute normal every day shit to their diagnosis
