Dissociative drugs are a class of psychedelic drugs characterized by intense feelings of depersonalization, derealization, and analgesia. Several of them are legal (owing perhaps to legitimate uses), while others are illegal.
Dissociative Disorders are characterized by a disruption in the normal functioning of consciousness, identity, memory, or the world around her / him.
Dissociative disorders are so-called because they are marked by a dissociation from or interruption of a person's fundamental aspects of waking consciousness (such as one's personal identity, one's personal history, etc.).
Since dissociative disorders seem to be triggered as a response to trauma or abuse, treatment for individuals with such a disorder may stress psychotherapy, although a combination of psychopharmacological and psychosocial treatments is often used.
A dissociative disorder is the breakdown of ones perception of his/her surroundings, memory, identity, or consciousness.
Dissociative identity disorder was formerly called "multiple personality disorder." When a person intermittently experiences two or more identities, he/she may have a dissociative identity disorder.
Dissociative amnesia: The length of an event of dissociative amnesia may be as short as a few minutes or as long as several years.
