I can't explain any further.
I also NEVER mentioned DID so you are missing the point of my post. I only mentioned dissociation, this forum is for dissociative disorders. This forum is not only for DID.
I know what Schizoaffective is very well and I do not fit the criteria for it at all.
I talked to my therapist today and she said what I am going through is called Depersonalization, which is a form of Dissociation.
Thanks for your reply anyway.
