Individuals with DD often report feeling as if in a waking dream or a movie and may also experience derealization (the sense that the external world is unreal or strange).

    Extractions: MPD and DISSOCIATIVE DISORDERS Fr J Mahoney (This was written before DSM IV and the name change to "DID" and was used to orient hospital personnel to the Dissociative Disorders) THE PROCESS OF DISSOCIATION Dissociation can be described as a common process of psychologically "separating" from some aspect of a human experience. Behavior, affect, sensations, or knowledge of the event can be "distanced" during the actual experience. Dissociation may be experienced when performing a well-known task (such as driving a familiar route) or going through an emotional trauma (such as feeling "numbed" when confronted by tragedy.) Dissociative Disorders occur when the process of dissociation is chronic or severe enough to interfere with a person's ability to live their life. When a person's consciousness, sense of identity, or behavior are found to be seriously disrupted, they may be entering the range of the continuum of dissociation where a disorder is present. THE DISSOCIATIVE DISORDERS The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM III-R) lists 4 Dissociative Disorders: (1) psychogenic amnesia; (2) psychogenic fugue; (3) depersonalization disorder: and (4) multiple personality. In addition, there is a catch-all category covering atypical dissociative presentations.

    Extractions: Definition The dissociative disorders are a group of mental disorders that affect consciousness are defined as causing significant interference with the patient's general functioning, including social relationships and employment. Description In order to have a clear picture of these disorders, dissociation should first be understood. Dissociation is a mechanism that allows the mind to separate or compartmentalize certain memories or thoughts from normal consciousness. These split-off mental contents are not erased. They may resurface spontaneously or be triggered by objects or events in the person's environment. Dissociation is a process that occurs along a spectrum of severity. It does not necessarily mean that a person has a dissociative disorder or other mental illness. A mild degree of dissociation occurs with some physical stressors; people who have gone without sleep for a long period of time, have had "laughing gas" for dental surgery, or have been in a minor accident often have brief dissociative experiences. Another commonplace example of dissociation is a person becoming involved in a book or movie so completely that the surroundings or the passage of time are not noticed. Another example might be driving on the highway and taking several exits without noticing or remembering. Dissociation is related to hypnosis in that hypnotic trance also involves a temporarily altered state of consciousness. Most patients with dissociative disorders are highly hypnotizable.
