With so many types of mental health issues, how do you diagnose multiple personality disorder? I think my son might have it.

With psychiataric evaluation.
First off, women are more prone to that disorder. Bring him to a therapist for a few sessions. It may be nothing, just growing up and peer pressure, etc. Ask him about school and his friends, etc.
Multiple personality disorder is no longer a valid diagnosis. Usually what people consider as multiple personality is the constellation of dissociative symptoms that may occur to some patients with Acute Trauma, PTSD, Anxiety/panic disorder, and borderline personality disorder.
