Is It Possible To Dissociation Unnoticeably?

Yes. Your dissociative experiences reflect depersonalization. If one spends his childhood splitt...

I am trying. Did dbt but couldn't get to the ice before I got lost along the way. I have complete amnesia at times leaving me feeling completely beyond control. I am working with my T to try to accept that child part of me. I hate all of it so much. I hate her, what happened to her and all that she was associated with. I am trying to work on acceptance and integration.

I know I have to eliminate the guilt and shame though first or I'll never accept it. I tried to deny it for so long. It's hard trying to be real when you spent your life covering it up.
 
Can you think of her as, not a part of you to resent, but as her own little being? Can you think of her as a little girl who suddenly ended up on your doorstep in her bare feet at 3 am during a snow storm because someone had just done something awful to her?

You might not be able, at this point, to love yourself, but I bet you have it in your heart to love anyone else who went through what she - or you - went through.
