I may also just need to accept that and stop chasing a quote on quote "answer" and just work on myself outside of all the labels. I don't know.

that type of thing is most likely psychosis. i don't believe there is a criteria for psychosis that talks about a certain length of time an episode has to last or even between episodes for it to be called psychosis though. have you taken meds (antipsychotics) to see if they help lessen things like that?
it is possible you have both overlapping things with dissociation and psychosis which stress would also cause both to become more prominent at times.
