Do you mean Dissociative Disorder not otherwise specified? Because if your dr told you Depressive disorder...that is incorrect and I would suggest getting another evaluation. DDNOS is like DID (dissociative identity disorder) where in people tend to not be themselves, if that makes sense. They start to feel like they aren't who they really are kind of thing. With DDNOS people tend to feel brainwashed and things like that. Depression can be a part of it as well though and that's probably why your dr recommended a psychiatrist, because in a case that has depression they tend to want to prescribe pills to help. I don't know too much about it, just the bare basics. My knowledge comes from a BA in psych, so please don't take my words as 100% as I haven't been in a practice nor am I licensed. I hope this helps some though...
