I have problems with my brain trying to dissociate whenever there is the potential to be triggered again. I used to chalk it all up to just being a space cadet. But these days, I think it is my brain trying to protect me, even if it is something that would have been useful.

My pdoc told me yesterday that PTSD physically and chemically changes the way your nervous system and brain respond to stimuli... he was talking more specifically about my different meds, but it applies to everything. Maybe one of those changes is spacing out things that other people say as an involuntary defense mechanism. Does that make any sense? Or am I still being loopy?! LOL!

I hope things start looking up for you soon.

*hugs*
