Do you know what your OSDD mental disorder is....

Recently on another website forum I noticed something that got me wondering about members here. They knew what their OSDD mental disorder was.

OSDD is a cover all category in the dissociative disorders category.

I think of it like a book a book has the title of the book but inside the book is many different titles of each chapter. each chapter is about one topic.

OSDD is a group of mental disorders where a person has very little dissociation problems. Each time they go through the problems, it only lasts for under a month, most times just a day or two.

Here in the USA when a treatment provider diagnosis OSDD they also have to specify what other dissociative disorder a person has. (OSDD stands for Other Specified Dissociative Disorder. on files it looks like this......OSDD- (name of the other dissociative disorder ).

there are many many mental disorders in the OSDD category. On this other website everyone who is diagnosed OSDD knows what their Other Specified Dissociative disorder is.

I was wondering if other here with OSDD diagnosis knows what their Other Specified Dissociative Disorder mental disorder is....

Example....

mine are Macropsia with mixed symptoms of Tachypsychia along with other mixed dissociative symptoms.

each OSDD criteria has its own mental disorder name and some have more than one mental disorder in that criteria.

what is your OSDD mental disorder label. (if you dont know dont panic its easy to find out, just ask your treatment provider which OSDD mental disorder you have there are many not all are listed online.)
