Questions about dissociation and memory

Sometimes when I dissociate, my personality changes and I feel like somebody else. I have a few different people inside me. But a lot of the time I don't completely lose my memory. It is POOR and very hazy/foggy when I come out of it ans return to myself, but I CAN and often do remember things even when I switch. Maybe not everything (I wouldn't know anyway if I can't remember) but some things at least. Does this still qualify as DID or another disorder? Thank you.

From what I know, if you have hazy_foggy recall that would still possibly be a dissociative disorder bur fall more under OSDD/Partial DID instead

Okay thank you for your response

Sometimes I do totally forget but I can regain it after a point. Like sometimes I lose my memory in the middle of talking and have to ask what I was talking about. But then I remember once the person says it

i agree that this sounds like OSDD probably, but could certainly be classed as DID depending on who's dx-ing it.

..but remember that diagnoses are just labels made up to help categorize and figure out treatment and insurance and stuff. our conditions do not conform to diagnoses exactly - they exist in an infinite spectrum, just like all human traits do. it's easy to get hung up on "which one am i" and "is this valid" or "am i fake" but your experiences are real, no matter what some doctor would call them. <3
