Yes, I have had a lot of dissociative phenomenon as well through the years.
I tend to think the phenomenon I was just mentioning, when it is in front of my eyes, or in my eyes (not in my head) is some of the dissociative stuff, though not the most intense of the dissociative stuff, for sure.
I think we need to protect ourselves from further trauma. I don't mean we need to be afraid of everyday things, places, people, events in order to take care of ourselves. I do feel I need to avoid any further trauma. This last one, with the physical injuries, too, really took a toll on me. Wow. I can see it more looking back than when I was going through the past 3 years. I was a mess. I am doing better, but have a long way to go.
I like sharing, yet hope my mentioning events is not triggering to anyone else. I had asked "The Well" to help me to cover potentially triggering info., just incase. I was helped and instructed as to how to do it for myself in future posts.
Hugs to anyone needing a hug!
