I used to be highly dissociative, triggered by what seemed the most benign things, loosing time and being disoriented when I returned...what has helped most is finding the voice of what I call my 'truer self'...the loudest voice in the chorus which best serves my self interest...it took a while to find that voice, but now, I live by it...know there is treatment...many clinical psych training programs have sliding scales so care can be at low or no cost...please spend the time to find services for yourself...you deserve to feel better...J
