At the beginning my therapist asked if I ever felt like I floated or was out of my body. I of course said no (It happens all the time. But, sometimes I like it....)
Anyway, I admitted that after the last session I had a hard time reconnecting to myself and felt robotic for a few days.
At my most recent session she kept checking in and asked where I was or if I was floating and kept telling me that it was important that if I was I should tell her.
I find it so hard not to do that. Its so easy for me to just separate especially during sessions. Its harder for me to stay "present" then it is for me to float away.
So my question is what is so wrong about it and why is it so important to stay?

The part of what you wrote that I bolded sounds like you think it is a problem, so maybe your therapist is going off of your own words that it's something you want to work on?
