Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Understand what dissociative disorders are. These disorders involve disruptions or breakdowns of memory, awareness, identity, or perception, often as a way to cope with trauma or stress.
Step 2: Review the common symptoms of dissociative disorders, which typically include memory loss for certain periods or events (dissociative amnesia), a sense of detachment from oneself or one's emotions (depersonalization), and a blurred or fragmented sense of identity (dissociative identity disorder).
Step 3: Identify which symptom does not fit the typical profile of dissociative disorders. Hearing voices that are not there is more characteristic of psychotic disorders, such as schizophrenia, rather than dissociative disorders.
Step 4: Compare each symptom option to the known symptoms of dissociative disorders to confirm that 'hearing voices that are not there' is the exception.
Step 5: Conclude that the symptom 'hearing voices that are not there' is not a symptom of dissociative disorders, while the other listed symptoms are.
