Just Took the Sanity Test, Scored High on Dissociative

So, I'm not really sure what dissociative disorder fully is. I guess I read that it's a lack of connection in your thoughts and personality? And includes having a bad memory? Anyone have more knowledge on what it is?

I know I tend to forget practically everything, and I'll say one thing then do another a lot, and I'll also contradict myself in what I say, and lie a lot to paint a picture of myself that I want the particular listener to see me as at the time. I'm really scared, this sounds like a heavy duty issue. I also read that it has to do with trauma, I experienced a ton of trauma growing up, I know that.

I don't know about for you, but for me, your second paragraph describes exactly the way I felt about myself before I was diagnosed. Holes in my memory, telling people very contradicting things, being spacey, all sorts of people saying hi and talking like they knew me when I swore I never met them in my life, unexplained physical sensations. I have a dissociative disorder and for me I experience a little bit of everything. I have parts. Some people use the term "alter." Everything I constructed was a way to cope with (and thus survive) trauma.

Dissociative disorders (there are several types) cover many things. If I had to summarize, people with dissociative disorders have all invented their own ingenius ways of altering reality so that they can escape trauma. Even after the trauma is past, the habit of altering reality remains. This can be done by switching personalities for different situations/triggers/groups of people/etc, believing the world is not real, believing you are not real, "just blanking out," living in daydreams/fantasies, etc.

Oh wow, yeah it seems like the mental illnesses overlap in a lot of their symptoms, I experience a bit of everything too. My results on the sanity test came up with like seven different problems. I can definitely relate to living in daydreams and fantasies a lot, do it all the time. I guess the next step is to seek a clinical psychologist.
