Abstract
Dissociation is the mental process of disconnecting from one's thoughts, feelings, memories, or sense of identity. This chapter reviews four DSM-5-TR dissociative disorders: dissociative identity disorder, dissociative amnesia, depersonalization-derealization disorder, and other specified dissociative disorder. Each disorder is described in terms of its clinical presentation, related factors, DSM-5-TR criteria, Adlerian conceptualizations, and treatment considerations. Case examples illustrate these features for each diagnosis.
