The Art of Deception
I had been so hurt and betrayed by my husband's actions, it was no wonder that my mind had tried to protect itself by blocking out the memories.
Dexter continued to explain, his words painting a picture of a complex and multifaceted disorder. "Dissociative Amnesia can manifest in different ways, including memory gaps, confusion, and even identity confusion. In some cases, people may experience dissociative fugue, where they suddenly forget their past and may even adopt a new identity."
I listened, entranced, as Dexter explained the different types of Dissociative Amnesia, and how they could affect a person's life. It was like he was describing me, my experiences, my feelings.
