Dissociative disorder is a mental disorder that involves experiencing a disconnection and lack of continuity between thoughts, memories, surroundings, actions, and identity. People with dissociative disorder escape reality in ways that are involuntary and unhealthy, causing problems with functioning in everyday life.
Progressive subcortical vascular encephalopathy (PSVE; also known as Binswanger disease) is a disorder in which patients develop worsening memory loss, mood changes, and gait imbalance due to cholesterol deposits and blockages in small blood vessels supplying the white matter and nerve cells (deep nuclei) under the surface of the brain. It is most common in elderly individuals with high blood pressure, active smoking, or history of stroke.
Significant decrease in kidney function. Causes include repeated damage from infections, diabetes, high blood pressure, and autoimmunity (the body's immune system attacking itself).
