4 signs you are dissociating and calling it being chill

4 signs you are dissociating and calling it being chill

1. You feel disconnected from your own body during stressful moments
2. You zone out in conversations and cannot remember what was said
3. Serious events feel like they are happening to someone else
4. People say you are calm under pressure but the truth is you feel nothing

Dissociation is not peace. It is your nervous system leaving the building because it decided the situation is too much.

wait this is actually making me tear up a little. #3 hit way too hard - i've been told i'm "so calm" during emergencies my whole life and i never knew how to explain that it's not calm, it's just... nothing. like my brain presses a mute button on everything. how do you even start to come back from that?
