Disassociative Disorder
When you wake up early in the morning, you sometimes forget whether you’re awake or not. Things seem distant and unreal for a period of time. Can you imagine what it would be like living in that feeling of being in a dream-like-state all the time ? It would be horrifying. And that is just what I am going to describe in this paper.That feeling of being in a dream, or things around you seeming distant or unreal is referred as dissociative or disassociation by the American Psychiatry Association . Disassociation means, "to detach from association"(Merriam-Webster. Collegiate Dictionary. 24 Oct. 2001.) D.D., Depersonalization/Derealization Disorder, is a very rare condition where you feel detached from oneself during most of the time and that things around you are unreal. This disorder is categorized with the famous Dissociative Identity Disorder or as it is more commonly referred to as Multiple Personality Disorder. Both are dissociative disorders where a person detaches him/herself from familiar things, such as; reality, personality, and other things directly effecting the human mind. (American Psychiatric Association, Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV), May 1994. Schwartz RH
