I managed to pull myself out of the dissociation episode. I first tried the cold water dunking your face in ice water and holding breath Tipp skill. Tried that three times. It worked briefly then the dissociation came flooding back. Tried distraction. Tried the 54321 method Couldn’t focus on anything cause I was zoning out so hard so distractions didn’t work. Went on for hours. I was pretty much non functional. I couldn’t watch shows or anything. I ended up taking one of my klonopin. I only use those in extremely bad situations and make sure it’s rarely. That helped enough to where I was able to focus on some of my shows (supernatural, Bridgerton , and some anime shows) and I feel a lot better now.

Anyway I’m glad I didn’t go to the ER. Sometimes when my dissociation gets extreme and I panic on top of it all just escalates and I feel like I’m gonna slip away into madness and get the urge to go to the ER cause by that point I’m terrified. But I’m glad I didn’t and waited it out.

It’s kind of difficult cause I live alone so don’t have another person by me who can help ground me. It’s easy to just dissociate and slip into basically another dimension mentally.
