    This Is How I Experience Dissociation (in Parts) Input Okay

    Post/Part 4 - More Info This is how dissociation is for me. I think I have DDNOS - semi-DID-type (although undiagnosed) and I am like a shell where Aspects will act through me/shell and depending who is present that is who "I" am. It could even be more than one at once. For me it's like when...

    Post/Part 3 - Multiple Relaities Does anyone have the feeling of having multiple realities all at once? I seem to and I don't know how to explain it to my BF. He gets so mad at me and calls me a liar and it gets us into lotsa troubles. Cuz a lot of times I DO have problems saying things...

    Post/Part 2 - Amnesia So, I have a question about amnesia. I guess I'm just asking about what exactly is amnesia and what "counts" as amnesia. I didn't think I experienced any amnesia but now I'm not so sure anymore. For example(s): Does having your memory "wiped clean" count as amnesia...

    What Does Dissociation Look/feel Like To You?

    For me I know for a fact I don't have DID. I was leaning toward DDNOS but now I'm not even sure about that anymore... I just know (for me) I have other "aspects" or "facets" to me, e.g. I will feel a "change" in me and will thus feel like a small child very suddenly when triggered or just...

    Do you have maladaptive daydreaming?

    Yes that exactly!!! That is how it is. I am no longer being abused or in the severe dysfunction of my childhood home life yet I would say around 75-90% of my day also is me being in a daydream which causes everything around me to fade away and thus I miss A LOT! I can't seem to get out of this...

    Is It Necessary To Have A Trauma T?

    That makes sense. Thank you. My old T said she knew everything about everything basically and would t even look up stuff on RA or that type of trauma,because she'd already learned it all. But I felt like I needed something different.

    Do you have maladaptive daydreaming?

    I must be a bit different then because I have done this since I can remember. And for me it IS maladaptive. It's severely impacts my life. Also, no one seems to have the daydreams that I have. Most everyone's seem to be good things (a better version of themselves, happy things, the life they...

    Do you have maladaptive daydreaming?

    Oh wow! Yes yes yes! I've done this for as long as I can remember. I am scared to say what mine are. They're very bad and twisted. I'm a very sick little girl. :( It's CONSTANT. Several things happen when I dissociate and/or maladaptive daydream: 1) I repeat things a lot like "key words"...

    Does This Happen For Anyone Else When Dissociative?

    Several things happen when I dissociate: 1) I repeat things a lot like "key words" and "triggers" and lots of "code" things. Idfk lol. 2) How "I" talk depends on which me I am! 3) I also have changes in how I speak. For example(s), I might talk like a child, or rage like a raving lunatic...

    Childhood Is This Child Abuse?

    @yogaisthebest I am a survivor who was beaten with a leather belt (with a frayed end to it so it hurt more) until I either blacked out or dissociated, I don't know for sure, the memory just gets blurry and black. Luckily the beltings weren't too often but he (dad) often lost control when giving...

    Hi there. I am sorry this is happening. You're a lot better than me lol. I would have went insane and cried and freaked out maybe. Idk. But for real she sounds really mean to you. I'm glad you didn't let her ruin your fun for you and your sons! You're so strong! I know that self-harm urge...

    Is It Necessary To Have A Trauma T?

    Does anyone think that it is necessary to have a trauma T? I feel I NEED one. I had a good T. We were together for like 2+ years but things started to get too deep and I tried sharing things that were maybe too deep and it just wasn't going anywhere. I felt very invalidated when I tried to tell...
