I have experienced this as well. I don't remember my childhood not up to about maybe college. It's all so wierd. Did we eat dinner? uh I guess cuz people do that but I don't remember any. I can't remember any birthdays. I think we celebrated them because people told me we did, but I have no memories of any birthdays growing up. Holidays uh no blank except a christmas picture in my head a moment really. I just don't remember my childhood. I've gone with what people told me happened but me myself I don't know.

I haven't been told I have DID or anything really but my T said I do have a signifcant problem with being present. Also I do have experiences of being gone but not knowing where I went. When I come back I know I was gone but I couln't tell you where I was.

I hope others respond to this as well because it is something I am both curious about and frightened of in terms of why I'd do this and what growing up was like and stuff like that.
