Many people confuse multiple personalities (dissociative identity disorder) with schizophrenia.
This is because both conditions may cause hallucinations.
They are very different though and typically schizophrenic hallucinations come from outside the mind while multiple personality symptoms come from inside the mind and are of alters.
Its not normal to be mentally ill but it's normal for someone with these mental illnesses to hallucinate.
The best way to treat multiple personalities is to make sure the personalities can get along and either co-exist or merge together. I do not have the best opinion of the mental health system but I hope you have found good support.
I have alters, I hear voices
