| Re: what is this disorder called?
I quickly scanned through my DSM-IV and could not find such a thing. Who knows, I may have missed it.
Even I haven't heard of this. If it is associated with DID, there may be reasons why. Those who shows symptoms of DID may have urges and certain behaviors that they use if in an agitated or stressed state or a dissociative episode. Kind of like how some people under stress will use alcohol to deal with stress and so on, the difference with people who have DID is simply perception. Also, those with DID don't necessarily always live in reality, therefore, along with another personality, they may hallucinate, which can bring on such behaviors.
Besides that, I don't know the name of a specific disorder with those symptoms. It sounds to me to be some kind of compulsive behavior.

I went on a couple sites real quick and it doesn't look like we're talking about PICA. They said nothing about drinking stuff or disassociative identity disorder. It's all about eating strange stuff. Anyone else...?
