Im assuming your computer or laptop or cell phone keep auto correcting you. I am not talking about Other Specified Dissociative Identity Disorder (The letters in your post)

reason I am assuming you are using auto correct I recently did a research project and found out what each country in the world has for dissociative disorders none list anything called Other Specified Dissociative Identity Disorder but some gave me some fun info about what the internet calls Other Specified Dissociative Identity Disorder ......someone in Cancun, decided to prank their friend by telling them they had OSDID (the letters stand for a beach in Cancun) the drunk friend thought they were talking about a new form of DID since it was close to the new DSM5 being released. the prank video went viral and all over the net you see the made up mental disorder called OSDID showing up either because people are enjoying the prank or because their devices are now auto correcting to to the pranked letters not the new mental disorder letters that have no I in the mental disorder name.

my point I am talking about Other Specified Dissociative Disorder (No letter "I" or word Identity in the label) not the pranked cancun letters gone viral due to auto correct

the world has two dissociative mental disorder....

Unspecified Dissociative Disorder (meaning the ER doctors do not tell the patient what their dissociative disorder is and this gets changed when they follow up with their regular mental health provider)

Other Specified Dissociative Disorder (meaning the treatment provider must state what the other mental disorder is that qualifies the person for this diagnosis)

no it does not matter to me if you do not know what your other specified disorder is. I was just curious because we all on another website know what our other specified dissociative disorder is.

here is a few examples of Other Specified Dissociative Disorders....

Macropsia - objects feel like they are getting smaller / farther away
Tachypsychia - feeling like time is moving too slowly or too fast
analgesia - not feeling any pain when dissociating
micro - amnesia ... short term memory problems due to dissociation
Transient Stupor - short term paralysis/ mobility problems and unable to respond to outside stimuli (like if a doctor checks reflexes your reflexes done respond because you are dissociated.
Dissociative Trance not due to any religious or cultural practices

there are others but this will give you an idea of what I am talking about.
