What was presented in the book and movie is a lot of bull****. Her doctor and the author of the book planted **** in the woman's head. There's plenty of stuff out there that disproves a lot of the stuff they tried to pass off, including audio tapes of some of the sessions. The Sybil business is all fascinating stuff, but it's not really true to the extent they want you to believe. More fiction than anything.
