  • A.Derealisation disorder
  • B.Dissociative amnesia
  • C.Dissociative identity disorder
  • D.Multiple personality disorder

Answer: A

Derealisation disorder is the condition in which a person experiences a change in his or her sense of reality and perception of self, for example feeling that the world or the self is unreal. Dissociative amnesia is loss of memory, dissociative identity disorder involves two or more distinct identities, and multiple personality disorder is the older name for that last condition. Depersonalisation and derealisation involve feeling detached from oneself or from the surroundings. The person stays in contact with reality, but the sense that the self or the world is real is altered.
