It is especially upsetting when it occurs where I am talking to someone I lost and be so deep into the conversation, but it could be a neutral experience too. Sometimes I'll get panic attacks or something similar after that. It varies in severity, but sometimes it gets pretty bad.
Sorry you're going through that. That's really terrible. (((Hugs)))

This is such a great description - almost exactly what disassociation feels like for me. Sometimes others will have to physically ground me to get me to snap back. It can be very scary.
