just to throw the cat in , i have dissociative motor disorder, i do not lose time or find i am somewhere else, my symptoms are muscle spasms, difficulty sincronising when waking up, inability to weight bare, past pointing and poor core stability!!!! ok Like most dissociatives i had a difficult childhood, but I am me , no alters though i can relate to little one alters at times but think that is because i was a preschool teacher for years before i became ill and no time loss!
