Hi Sadly ever after... sorry to hear you are having a hard time, Zoning out is a sign of dissociation as is tempory blindness and personality changes. paranoia, anxiety etc could be but i am not too sure, as a guess i would find it hard to give your symptoms a specific dissociative name but you could possibly fall under the heading of non specific dissociation which is where you have symptoms from a number of specific dissociation categaries through out the day/week. It is usual for dissociative motor symptoms to disappear within a few months as yours have and for them to appear after a trauma like your partner leaving. Zoning out/day dreaming is a form of dissociation which most people go through at some point in their life, it only is classed as a problem needing treatment if it significantly disrupts daily functioning. Stick with your lscw, it could do you some good, but i would ensure all your physical symptoms are checked out by the relevant specialists to be sure they are caused by your mental illness rather than an undiagnosed physical cause. hope this helps xx
