Do I have dissociative amnesia?

When my husband and I fight, I forget things that I have said during the argument. I say things and then later I say that I didn't say that, then my husband repeats what I said and I remember that I indeed did say that. Well, needless to say he thinks that I am a liar and that I DO remember what I say, even though I don't, and that that it is "convenient" for me to forget the things that I do. I am wondering is this dissociative amnesia? Is it something else? Or do I just need to pay better attention to what I say? It doesn't seem to happen when I talk with anyone else.Do I have dissociative amnesia?
If you are fighting with your husband often, you may be coming to a point where the stress of it is too much, and you blank it out. It's like a very light case of dissociative amnesia. I hesitate to really call it that, because a disorder like that wouldn't be limited to your interaction with one person UNLESS the fights you have are just horrible, I mean traumatic screaming or physical fights that go on for hours. If you are having those kind of fights fairly regularly, I would really recommend some counseling for you guys. Otherwise, you're probably just a little stressed out, and need to find some way to work out your disagreements that doesn't lead to a fight.



Try a "knee-to-knee" session with your husband. Sit in two chairs directly facing each other with your knees touching. Exchange ideas but do not argue, like this, "When you do ____, I feel like ____." For example, "When you nag me about taking the car to the shop, I feel like you think I'm stupid or lazy." or "When you raise your voice to me, I feel hurt, scared, and unloved." It's really a listening exercise. You might try writing it down first, so you won't forget what you've said or what you want to say. When you fight, you're both trying to be heard and may feel like your partner is not listening or acknowledging your feelings. Try not to respond with anything other than, "I'm sorry I made you feel this way." Denying his feelings or him denying your feelings will take you back to fighting. I hope that helps!Do I have dissociative amnesia?
