You know the weird thing is that I do really have the ability to voluntarily enter a dissociative state. I use it sometimes when I am solving word scrambles or if I am trying to solve a problem. It is like I cut my mind loose and it just works on its own. It is accompanied by a state of nausea as I pop in and out. Been able to do it since I was a teenager. Well, really before then. I think it is some sort of an altered state of consciousness. I tell my friends I don’t see things, I see into and around things. Most of them believe me after a while.

Want disassociative ? Try having labyrinthitis 24/7 as I have for about 13 years.
DJ, who can’t fathom why people want to get drunk or high to have that f’d up floating feeling I do all the time (and who’d like to get off the ride).
