Hi, I have a question.. For many years now I have had episodes of dissociation of which sometimes I am aware that I am in an episode, but many times I do not realize until after someone asks me what happened to me? And I would like to know, how can I differentiate if what I have is dissociative identity disorder or a non-epileptic seizure, or something else?.. I almost forgot to mention that many times a day I usually have spasms that I don't know what they are due to. Thanks so much for reading! 🌻

Honestly, I go through the same thing and my doctor said it was probably absence seizures, dissociation is often less abrupt, and it's kinda like you can still do things and talk but you're just not there. Also DID is a little different than just dissociating, it has to include episodes of being someone else. I believe what you were thinking of is Otherwise Specifed Dissociative Disorder.
I had to write down a list and get a video of it happening before the doctors did anything, good luck though!
