Other Dissociative disorder not otherwise specified and ptsd questions about treatment

[Girlgirlgirl]

Hello, I have been seeing a therapist for PTSD for a while. Yesterday I was told I have Dissociative Disorder Not Otherwise Specified after taking a questionnaire. I was wondering how long does therapy take for both PTSD and DDNOS combined in some people's experience or just a guesttimate? (I know it can be different for everyone). Also what type of specific therapies are best? I've been doing EMDR and CBT. Thank-you.

I don't want to scare you or come across as unhelpful, but disorders like that... Aren't curable. Atleast not to my knowledge. It's a working progress and some days will be better than others. The therapies that work best for you won't necessarily treat your conditions, but they will help you cope with what you've been through! One day you might not need therapy anymore, but there is no way of telling. And it's okay! It's okay to bed or and it's okay to not.
