Apparently Normal and Emotional Parts

The present academic model for dissociate disorders is based on the theory of structural dissociation. You might want to read these two articles

Secondary Structural Dissociation | DID-Research.org

Tertiary Structural Dissociation | DID-Research.org

and also Primary structural dissociation
Primary Structural Dissociation | DID-Research.org

See the image at the top of each page. For primary you'll see one ANP & one EP. That's usually not DID or OSDD. For secondary you'll see one ANP & multiple EPs in the image. That's known for OSDD. Just a thought that maybe in your system you're the ANP and your voices are the EPs. EPs can definitely have dissociation and not remember things. They can be very abusive & angry. They hold trauma. In tertiary there are multiple ANPs & EPs, which is known for DID.

Thank you so much for those links! I read every one and have learned so much from them. Education about dissociation is so very helpful.
