If no medical causes are discovered, see a psychologist for diagnosis. A psychologist uses diagnostic assessments as well as interview to diagnose dissociative features, rule out other diagnoses, or examine any co-occurance with other psychological  diagnoses.  A psychologist may examine features related to dissociative identity disorder. These are more severe identity confusion disorders. Sometimes, dissociative amnesia can be related to anxiety. A psychologist may rule out anxiety as a cause for dissociation. Besides dissociative amnesia, other disorders exist that involve memory function and identity. When examining features of dissociative amnesia, consider how it differs from other disorders. Rule out other psychological disorders of memory, such as:   Simple amnesia — Simple amnesia is memory loss that results from brain injury or brain disease, and involves a loss of information from memory.   Depersonalization disorder — Depersonalization involves feeling like you are outside of yourself or your body, like you are watching your life from above or through a movie screen or as if in a dream. If you have depersonalization disorder, this will occur on an ongoing or episodic basis. For more information, check out How to Overcome Depersonalization.  Dissociative Identity disorder — This disorder involves having multiple emerging personalities or identities that express at different times in one person. Different personalities may emerge at different situations or events. People with DID may also have dissociative amnesia and/or dissociative fugue. For more information, check out How to Know if You Have DID or Dissociative Identity Disorder. Sometimes, people with dissociative amnesia have other mental health diagnoses. For instance, some people with Cluster C Personality disorders-- associated with anxious and fearful thinking and behavior--  such as Antisocial Personality disorder, Dependent personality disorder, and Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder may have a higher incidence of dissociative amnesia. There may also be evidence linking dissociative amnesia with Cluster B disorders (Antisocial, Borderline, Histrionic, Narcissistic Personality disorders). When considering a diagnosis of dissociative amnesia, it’s important to explore personal history of personality disorders. To inquire about co-occurring psychological disorders, seek a diagnosis from a psychologist.
