I don't know if there is a specific term for what you describe. (Perhaps there are other PC members who will know.) What this sounds like to me is sort-of a combination of the experience of depersonalization / derealization & trauma-related flashbacks. I know you wrote you've done research on dissociation. So you're probably already pretty familiar with that. However here's a link to 1 article on depersonalization / derealization, from PC's archives, that (hopefully) may still be of interest along with links to 2 articles on the subject of flashbacks:
The Matrix Has You: On Dissociation and Feelings of Detachment
Why Do Flashbacks Happen? | After Trauma
Coping with Flashbacks
