Is that a diagnosis?? :)
I think to some extent we are all show signs of dissociation whether diagnosed or not. How else can a person cope?
I face several traumatic events that began at age 7 until now. I am 30 now. If I had faced each thing instead of seperating myself from it I would have lost my mind. It is the one thing I have control over. Seperating myself is so much easier.
This has made EMDR especially hard for me. It has opened the floodgates of emotions ranging from fear, anger, hurt, and even physical pain at times. EMDR has not been easy for me to do, but after about a week of an EMDR session I feel really great. Not an easy road to travel, but it is worth it in the long run. I am so grateful for EMDR and for a therapist who is really wonderful. I am truly blessed. Those feelings I can face.
