While actually in a dissociative state I felt safe but the truth was I was more vulnerable because I wasn’t present. Back when ptsd was still an issue for me I dissociated a lot. In a fugue I would leave my house and go walking in my pjs with nothing. I lived in a major metropolis so that was extremely dangerous. I was picked up by the police several times and because I wasn’t in reality and unable to respond I would be taken to hospitals. Once I came out of my dissociation it was quite scary. Not safe at all. I had to give my daughter and power of attorney to my parents until I got a better handle on it. Ptsd is no longer an issue and I no longer dissociate
