That's the problem with self-diagnosis, or just not wanting to believe what the professionals are telling you. I find it interesting that I've seen many instances of the same thing in forums like these, where Spiritual people think they know best. I've had three instances where I've experienced the same thing, the first time was during child abuse and the other two was when my life was in danger.
I dream from a third-person perspective, it's common enough. One of the possible reasons for dreaming in the third person is a dissociative personality, and in your case it can be caused by your experience at pre-school. Experiences like those can cause us to 'detach' from ourselves slightly. I have one of those.
