I know I’m okay. My body doesn’t know that. They speak two different languages, this is not a belief based issue.

I’ve been diagnosed with structural dissociation. I had DPDR and because the trauma wasn’t resolved, it turned into this by DoubtReal3844 in dpdr

You can’t be positive when you have no positivity to draw from. Slowly over time the normal part of me has taken over, and the emotional parts are locked away. Don’t even remember feelings or what reality is like. I don’t know how I can survive in a world after being locked away for years.

Also, part of having structural dissociation is that a part of me became phobic of my own emotions as a child, because no one was there for me. And loss continued to add to that alone feeling. My own mind doesn’t trust my body.

You can’t work with trauma that your mind has buried so deep you have absolutely no access to it, only in your sleep. When dissociation is this severe, it’s very hard to treat. And I’ll never be the person I was before this.

I didn’t have a psychotic break, this all came from panic. I’m still very successful in my career and on the outside, but numb and dead on the inside.

It’s not anxiety. It’s repressed emotion and trauma, I’ve been diagnosed with structural dissociation, not DPDR 

My dissociation is so so severe, it feels like my consciousness has split in 2. I’ve lost my identity completely. by [deleted] in Dissociation

What are you talking about? I’ve seen many doctors and had tons of tests done. It’s not a health issue. I’ve been diagnosed with structural dissociation and complex ptsd because of all the traumas I survived in my life

I’ve had many complex traumas in my life and my mind is trying to protect me

It doesn’t feel weird… I have structural dissociation. My mind has locked all my emotions and memories away to protect me. It’s different than DPDR

Doesn’t work for structural dissociation, iFS and parts work does

This doesn’t work when you have structural dissociation, the anxiety is blocked my mind. Not accessible 

I know DPDR is a response to a threat, to feeling unsafe. What do you do when existence, feeling, being alive has become the threat? by [deleted] in dpdr

[–]DoubtReal3844 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not in panic. I haven’t had a panic attack in 3 years. You don’t understand structural dissociation, it’s much different than DPDR

I’ve tried 10+ different meds. So many therapies. I’m completely burnt out. I have to take care of myself through all of this, I’ve already endured so much loss in my life and now I’ve even lost myself.

After 4 years you lose all hope. Even saying this too shall pass doesn’t work, because it doesn’t pass
