when you talk about feeling like a small child who has been traumatized the word minor doesn't seem appropriate. i am
not qualified to judge your actual condition. there are varying degrees of dissociation and you do have some episodes where you do "go away" and begin to "act out" like a hurt child.
maybe you want to know if you "qualify", if you really do deserve attention and help for this part of your mind and for the pain that is obviously there when you trigger into these different states of being.
it seems pretty obvious to me that you need help due to the pain in your background. just be careful to choose well who you reveal yourself to. choose safe people, safe T's who will help you with the pain inside your heart and mind.
i am mpd/did. one thing i can share with you that may help is that i have parts whose job is to deny that i am dissociative. it is a defense. so even though i have known for years now that i am did, i will occasionally still have a sudden switch where i will think it seems idiotic to think i am dissociative. those who dissociate do it to get relief in a time of overwhelming pain or stress or fear. if you keep going to your T, in time you will know more clearly what is going on in your life and what to do about it. i'd recommend you spend some time reading and talking to others on this site and allow yourself some time to learn about dissociation.
