If I was OSDD (I’d rather be)...I would have a greater sense of self over this sense of no control, missing memories, time jumps, alters taking over ruining my version of life.

I have all kinds of Dissociative events...I’m so prone to dissociation....mini dissociation might be a wrong way to describe it...more like dissociative events that I catch myself entering and to try snapping (grounding) out of- mini being a time limit, before I get lost in the daze and hurt myself. Keep in mind...a lot of it is tied in to constant non-stop flashbacks, sometimes one right after another, which distracts me outwardly like reliving the thought, everytime a part steps forward to say something (like all the time), everything is a trigger....it is a constant moment to moment battle to stay focused and present with this mental barrage of triggered Dissociative events. It’s a wonder that I can function- good enough to hold a job is about all that matters.

This has been a lifelong ordeal...and I wish it would just go away. :/
Alwayschanging I think your jury delivered its "verdict"! (Was there ever any doubt? I think it is plainly obvious you are as DID as DID can be!)

Dissociative Identity Disorder Signs, Symptoms and DSM 5 diagnostic criteria

Quote:
A. Disruption of identity characterized by two or more distinct personality states, which may be described in some cultures as an experience of possession. The disruption of marked discontinuity in sense of self and sense of agency, accompanied by related alterations in affect, behavior, consciousness, memory, perception, cognition, and/or sensory-motor functioning. These signs and symptoms may be observed by others or reported by the individual.

B. Recurrent gaps in the recall of everyday events, important personal information, and/or traumatic events that are inconsistent with ordinary forgetting.

C. The symptoms cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning.

D. The disturbance is not a normal part of a broadly accepted cultural or religious practice. Note: In children, the symptoms are not better explained by imaginary playmates or other fantasy play.

E. The symptoms are not attributable to the physiological effects of a substance (e.g., blackouts or chaotic behavior during alcohol intoxication) or another medical condition (e.g., complex partial seizures).
