Sometimes when I'm like that I get really clumsy, almost light-headed. Is that a form of dissociation?

Other times I space out entirely and don't hear anything going on around me. I'll feel like I have no control over my words, and if I'm talking it will sound to me like I'm listening to someone else.
I get like that, dissociation is generally triggered to happen.

When I dissociate, I become dazed and foggy minded.

According to what your T says and the way that you describe it, I'd say yes it is. Welcome to the club!
Thanks for this!
