Dissociative amnesia typically involves selective memory loss, particularly for events involving trauma. The individual may have no memory of specific events or time periods, but their memory for other information may be intact. This is different from general amnesia, where the person may have no memory of any events. Additionally, dissociative amnesia can involve memories prior to a trauma, but it is more likely to involve memories surrounding the traumatic event itself. Memory loss following a trauma is more commonly associated with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) than dissociative amnesia.
