This indicates DID, the schizotypal stuff is orthogonal to DID, you can be both. Most people choose and have chosen all their lives to group all their thoughts into one unitary personality. Others haven't. It's all an illusion anyway in my humble opinion. There are only chains of thoughts/feelings and we associate with those chains a feeling of "I" or "other", but the reality is it's just a meandering walk.

> This indicates DID, the schizotypal stuff is orthogonal to DID, you can be both. You know what, you might be right... got curious because of your post and went searching, then found out about OSDD-1b which is a sub-type of DID: https://did-research.org/comorbid/dd/osdd_udd/did_osdd https://did-research.org/comorbid/dd/osdd_udd/did_osdd > In some cases, OSDD-1 parts can be highly distinct and have strong independent senses of self. What separates these individuals from those with DID is that they do not black out or lose time. They may or may not have dissociative amnesia for aspects of their trauma history, and they may occasionally experience episodes of amnesia due to extreme stress or reminders of trauma. However, they do not experience memory disruptions between parts during their normal daily life. An individual with OSDD-1b has a subjectively continuous memory; different alters do not have different versions of their history for daily life because all relevant information is accessible to all alters. Thank you!
