Hi ASTN, welcome to PC!
I can understand as to how confusing and vexing these happenings can be. Dissociative disorders with the things that you are describing usually stem from trauma experienced from early childhood like child abuse or a horrific event/stress that the child's mind can't process, so if you have anything like that, you could be on the right track. It's also an on going lifelong situation that didn't just begin recently.
DD like what you described, being aware and present but not "in control" can be called "co-conscious" and that's kinda like how I is, this all has to be determined and diagnosed by a mental health care professional.
Feel free to hangout and ask more questions or post any questions that you might have. A normal healthy mind doesn't go asking and describing things on online forums such as this.
