So, a little while ago I was hospitalized because I turned up at the ER and didn't know who I was or anything about myself. The pdoc actually had to read to me what I had told the ER when I turned up.
He diagnosed me with PTSD with a dissociative disorder. My previous T had said the same thing. My current T suggested that I should go to a neurologist and the neurologist said had I considered DID. I also hear voices and sense other specific "characters" are around me. They don't have names but I know them. I tell my t its like falling asleep on the subway. I can hear other people talking around me.
Also, when I turned up to the ER the case worker reported that I was a totally different person. She reported that she thought I was in my late teens and I'm actually in my late twenties.
My current T does not believe in DID and I'm not totally convinced that I have it. She is great with PTSD and anxiety though.
Would that matter to you?
