dissociation?

[HandheldOutlaw]

Am i the only one who experiences this?
& is it weird that i enjoy it at times?
How do i snap out of it?


I know flashbacks are OK if you are safe. Is dissociation the same?

What does it mean?

Its hard to explain
You're "spaced out"
Still functional but unaware & everything feels surreal
It happens to me b/c of my ptsd.

Is it like where suddenly everything feels funny? Like you're watching your body and everything feels unreal. Like you're not yourself, you're not you.

It happens occasionally to most people but not frequently, like you are saying about yourself. Just pinch yourself or tell a friend to while you are dissasociated.

Im gonna carry around sheet rock so I can bang my head on a wall. I know how you feel and I thought I was alone on it... But I know how you feel, I feel like Im not there, nothings real... I cant actually grasp it...

I experience dissociation a lot. I don't enjoy it, but can understand how you might, since a lot of recreational drugs are designed to have a similar effect. Unfortunately I don't know how to snap out of it, and even if I did, what works for me might not work for you.
