Are there any story where either John or Rodney suffers from Dissociative Identity Disorder (also know as Multiple Personality, or Split Personality disorder)? McShep preferably, but it can be gen...

edit: I didn't mean to cause any kind of problem in here... maybe I should have mentioned I browsed through the deranged McKay masterlist before requesting this... And even though I haven't read the whole list, I didn't seem to find exactly this kind of disorder in there...

The Deranged Mckay Master list

- This one is a little lighter but sort of fits.

I don't think there's any multiple personality fic on my deranged list, but if it exists please let me know (I need to update that thing anyway).

Actually hang on, I do know one, but I haven't added it yet. It's mensa AU so it's Rod that has the condition. But it was stated that Rodney also suffered from it when he was young.

Just Rodney (http://community.livejournal.com/mensa_au/29320.html)

Actually I do know at least one that fits the bill perfectly.

In Light and Shade (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2712064/1/Light_and_Shade) Rodney is captured and brainwashed by some lord, who collects damaged or unhappy people. It creates an artificial multiple personality.

The puppet master (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2332227/1/). I seem to have it falsely advertised as schizophrenia, but he gets another consciousness stuck in his head.

Infinity (http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=3124&chapter=2) might sort of fit. He experiences the entire Multiverse and afterwards can't figure out which Rodney he is.

You've also got listed:
I'm not broken (http://libra-traveller.livejournal.com/2918.html) by [livejournal.com profile] libra_traveller - Rodney accidentally uses a brain splicing device on himself. When he starts blacking out and acting scary, decides he's schizophrenic (she's been seeing signs remember). Instead he's developing multiple personalities (one of them is his mother?!?). Now that's crazy!

Oh hey! That list is getting a bit hard to maneuver.

But still so very very useful! ♥s it *and makes puppy-dog eyes at you in hope -- yes, greedy -- of additions to it and your other masterlist & master lists* :)

I kinda hate the fact that whenever someone requests mentally ill McKay fics, they get directed to the "deranged McKay" masterlist :/ I get it can be considered relevant to the interests, but it just bothers me.

We may get smacked by the mods for going OT, but I suspect it's because this, and several other masterlists also often recced, are fairly comprehensive. So unless a requester specifically says "I've already read everything on the ... masterlist, please rec me some new/different ones" it's a great place to point someone less familiar with classics-of-a-genre to so they can quickly see a bunch of fics they might like.

Eh, I suspect most requesters don't think to say it, which is why readers trying to be helpful -- and I'm so guilty! as a newbie discovering those lists made quickly finding good/crazy/interesting stuff to read so much easier, so of course I like to rec them on -- keep pointing at them... :)

I know a couple where it's more along the lines of Possession than MPD for John if you want those...?

Hmmm, in that case, [livejournal.com profile] sgamadison has one in her Second series, Second Chance (http://sgabigbang.talkoncorners.net/?view=fic&id=23), that has one John's consciousness sort of cohabiting or merging with an alternate universe's John, if that'll do you?

If AU-travel-caused personality mergings are okay, then [livejournal.com profile] toft_froggy's All These Places We Have Met (http://community.livejournal.com/sga_flashfic/565739.html) has John trying to follow his Rodney's consciousness through a series of increasingly grim AUs to try to get him back home/out of the wrong Rodney-body....

Variations on the MPD theme - Possession, Body/Mind-Sharing:

"Resonance" (http://sgabigbang.talkoncorners.net/index.php?view=fic&id=21) by Jadesfire ([livejournal.com profile] jadesfire2808) (Has deceased/disembodied Ancient in John's head)

"Total Recall" (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4782680/1/Total_Recall) by Cassandra Pierson (maybe not so much Possessed!John as Reincarnated!Ancient!John, but kind of comes across as MPD since John tries to keep a separation of selves in his head for clarity/peace-of-mind)

"A Growing Connection" (http://sgabigbang.talkoncorners.net/index.php?view=fic&id=44) by Joulez (IIRC, an Ascended Ancient took over John for a brief period)

"Neighboring Solitudes" (http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=3213) by chelle ([livejournal.com profile] mmmchelle) (For a twist, not so much Possessed!Rodney as it is John's stuck in Rodney's head - Duet AU)

"Double Occupancy" (http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=3341) by Isis ([livejournal.com profile] isiscolo) (keeping on the theme of the previous suggestion, except I think Rodney & John are in John's body/mind this time...)

"A Dickensian Betrayal of the Mind" (http://www.wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=10168) by lantean_drift (Umm, well, this one sort of has John in Rodney's head, only not so much on the body/mind-sharing as it is that John's in Rodney's memories/past...)



*Minus 1 or 2, these are all over 20,000 words.*

You're welcome! I forgot to mention that "Total Recall" by Cassandra Pierson (and darkmoore05) is a WIP & is slow updating -- but they've also got quite a few other writing projects going right now, so... That said, it's a story well worth the wait.
