think of it kind of like a person goes through puberty related mental health issues in this age bracket, a person goes through menopausal related mental health issues at this age bracket.
in the USA ......DID..... has an age bracket too.
my point there are many mental disorders now since 2013 that are recognized as being something that happens to very young children, begins in very early before 5 yr old children. some of these problems if left untreated end up being with that child as they grow up and into adulthood. some done.

I'm in the US, also amandalouise. I'm not sure I understand because I was told the ego can be damaged and therefore "split" at any age during trauma.
I wonder if some peope who've gone through trauma, whose various parts of the brain are never really set in stone, can experience "More DID" i/e more dissocation, at any age?
