Just a bit of information concerning the edited info in your post Butterfly crisis.... if you look at the date of when that information was posted you will see that it was before 2013 America changed over to a new standard of what is and isnt things like dissociation,, DID and other mental disorders in 2013. not taking anything away from other posts just stating a fact that diagnostics here in america have now changed. That posted information was most likely accurate for just having DID and not a part of other mental disorders, when it was posted back in 2011.
with the change over in 2013 here in america dissociative symptoms are now included in just about every mental disorder recognized in America. what you quoted now fits many different mental and physical health problems. (Example if you google those symptoms you will see they match literally millions upon millions of things these symptoms can be)
as a result of the change over, treatment providers in America are now required when diagnosing someone with a mental disorder /any mental disorder to stipulate/document whether that mental disorder includes dissociative symptoms (or what ever that mental disorders sub group symptom is.....example depression now includes a diagnostic of having dissociative symptoms that can include amnesia / depersonalization / derealization and dissociative like identity issues.
because the diagnostics here in america are relatively new the only way to get the correct information /diagnosis pertaining directly to you is through a treatment provider.
my suggestion is contact a treatment provider for accurate diagnosis evaluation and in the mean time if you feel you need to surf the net for information remember to check the date of the information and look for sources that are from medical\psychological resources that may have the new updated materials /information.
