I have PTSD so I dissociate anyway but I also dissociate when I'm in mixed episodes. When I am really agitated I sometimes don't remember things I said or did, it's all a blur. During one of my hospitalizations I made threatening phone calls to family members every day and I don't remember any of that. I was also shocked to find out I had been there 3 weeks when I was discharged. I thought it was a week or two.

I went to a PTSD/DID program and they said everyone dissociates a little bit. You might remember a time when you zoned out while someone was talking to you or drove home and not really remembered the drive.
