Later on suffering a small breakup in front of her students (and so being forced to hear a neighbor play Chopin'south Étude in A Modest, "Wintertime Current of air", incessantly), Sybil Dorsett is given a neurological examination by Dr. Cornelia Wilbur, a psychiatrist. She admits to having blackouts and fears that are getting worse. Dr. Wilbur theorizes that the incidents are a kind of hysteria, all related to a deeper problem. She asks Sybil to render at a later date for more counseling. Sybil says she will have to ask her male parent.

Sybil's male parent, Willard Dorsett, and her stepmother, Freida, are in New York on a visit. Sybil meets them at a cafeteria for lunch. She explains to her father that the problems she used to have as a young girl have returned and that she wants to see a psychiatrist, Dr. Wilbur. Sybil'south parents arrive articulate to Sybil that they disapprove of psychiatrists and psychiatry, saying how evil and controlling psychiatrists are. Sybil becomes upset and dissociates into Peggy, who becomes enraged and breaks a glass. Peggy angrily storms out of the cafeteria. Subsequently that evening, Dr. Wilbur receives a tardily night call from someone who identifies herself as Vickie and says Sybil is about to jump out a hotel window. Dr. Wilbur rescues Sybil, who denies knowing Vickie. Suddenly, Sybil becomes hysterical and begins speaking like a immature daughter. This girl introduces herself as Peggy, and Wilbur realizes that Sybil is suffering from dissociative identity disorder, previously known as multiple personality disorder.

Vickie introduces herself to Wilbur at the next session. Vickie, who knows everything about the other personalities, tells Wilbur about some of them, including Marcia, who is suicidal, and Vanessa, who plays the piano although Sybil has non played in years and swears she forgot how to play pianoforte.

Over the weeks, each of the personalities introduces herself to Wilbur. At the same time, the personality Vanessa falls in love with a mannerly neighbor named Richard.

Wilbur finally explains to Sybil almost the other personalities. Every bit proof, Wilbur plays the session'south tape to permit Sybil to hear their voices, but when a voice that sounds like Sybil'due south mother Hattie speaks, an infant personality named Ruthie emerges. Wilbur is unable to communicate with the pre-verbal child and must expect until Sybil returns.

Life becomes more chaotic for Sybil as the other personalities grow stronger. The personalities make Dr. Wilbur a Christmas card, but Sybil made everything imperial, a color that frightens Peggy. Dr. Wilbur hypnotizes Vickie and asks almost the royal. Vickie relates a memory of a time Sybil's mother locked immature Sybil in the wheat bin in the barn. Thinking she was smothering, Sybil used her majestic crayon to scratch on the inside of the bin then someone would know she had been there.

Vanessa invites Richard and his son Matthew to have Christmas dinner, after which Richard spends the night in Sybil's apartment. Sybil has a nightmare and awakens as Marcia, who tries to throw herself off the roof. Richard rescues her and calls Wilbur. Shortly afterward, Richard moves away, crushing both Sybil and Vanessa. Once again confronted with her diagnosis, Sybil attempts to convince Wilbur that she has in fact been faking all of the other personalities the entire fourth dimension and denies that multiple personalities be within her.

Wilbur goes in search of Sybil's father, who mentions that Sybil's mother Hattie was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia but denies that she e'er abused Sybil. Wilbur also seeks out Sybil'southward pediatrician. The medico gives Wilbur a frightening account of extensive internal scarring he establish while treating Sybil for a bladder problem. Finally, Wilbur visits the old Dorsett firm, where she discovers the green kitchen Sybil'southward selves have described many times. She as well finds the purple crayon scratches inside the wheat bin. She takes them back to New York Urban center to prove all the memories really happened.

Dr. Wilbur takes Sybil for a drive, during which Peggy reveals the horrific concrete abuse she suffered at her mother's hands. After Peggy exhausts herself, Sybil emerges, remembering everything that Peggy has just said. Finally, she is able to express her rage against her mother.

Dr. Wilbur hypnotizes Sybil to introduce her to the other personalities. Sybil, who has ever been frightened of Peggy, meets her at last and is surprised that she is only a immature girl. Sybil embraces a weeping Peggy. A voiceover from Dr. Wilbur explains that afterwards this incident, Sybil recovered her memories and went on to live a full and happy life equally an academic.
