Yes it really is. Dissociation is VERY misunderstood. People think that it's some strange or unusual thing, but it's not. It's ajust a way of coping. And actually, everyone dissociates. Daydreaming, for instance, is a type of dissociation. There are much more severe forms, of course, and then you get into dissociative disorders. But this is just an example of one type of dissociation that ethersvirtue has used to cope with her pain.
I hope that info helps. If anyone wants to know more about dissociation, get in touch with me. I'm too tired to think anymore tonight! lol!
