Join us as we provide an in-depth look at dissociative disorders - conditions involving disruptions in memory, identity, consciousness, and perception. In this podcast, we will: - Explain what dissociation is and its role as a defense mechanism - Go through the major dissociative disorders including Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), dissociative amnesia, depersonalization/derealization disorder, and more - Share how dissociative disorders develop as a response to trauma, especially in childhood - Discuss common symptoms of dissociative disorders and how they manifest - Provide an inside look at what it's like to live with dissociative disorders through first-hand accounts - Examine available treatment options such as psychotherapy, medication and alternative therapies - Share tips for coping day-to-day with dissociative symptoms - Offer guidance on how loved ones can provide support to those with dissociative disorders Dissociative disorders remain widely misunderstood.
