my therapist makes me feel like maybe i don't have D.I.D.
which isn't a bad thing, but she says she doesnt specialize in it and cant really help that much on that side of things... she's more focused on helping me utilize resources and coping skills, which is ok too

she just says that i dissociate ALOT... near constantly, like all the time...
which i know i do, but im just wondering... how could i dissociate so much for me whole life and not develop D.I.D. ? and still dissociate severely?

she said that its because of my PTSD, c-ptsd, DTD, or whatever you want to call it...

is it possible to just dissociate stuff like that and not develop d.i.d.?
is that what happens when you develop borderline personality?

i dunno, she says that i get caught up in trying to find a name for what i experience a bit much and should try to focus on getting better more rather than naming what im experiencing

i really like her... i wish she knew more about it...
they make me feel like a good person

I have given a great deal of thought to things like this. I can relate a lot to you. I do a lot of reading on the subject and this is one of the good articles I have read.
https://www.madinamerica.com/2014/08...-dissociation/

A lot of interesting commentary on diagnosis in that one.

*EDIT* I think this is the article I meant to link. Both are good but this one directly addresses your topic better.
