I think it's all part of what our brains do to keep going. It doesn't always work for the best as adults, but I know it is what kept me able to function and stay alive as a child.

Does hubby know you dissociate? Would you feel comfortable asking him to give highlights of it so you know what's going on?

Hang in there.
Ya so hard, and ya it is nice IT"S not there for that time but I know it'll come back. I have a hard time with letting it go at that time when I know wsomething happened but then sometimes it's completly gone and all I know is a hint that we did this or that, no knowledge of the talk we just had, just that we talked. I do see how it keeped me alive as a child tho, always wondered what keeped me alive, now I know but will have to live with this for like FOREVER, but ohwell.
Ya, Hubby knows now that I dissociate and believes me cause I think he saw. But ya, makes it easier now when I can't hear him to just sit there with I think a blank look and he understand nothing is reaching me. I do ask sometimes for highlights but still feel uncomfortable about it.
