What is dissociative?
Formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder. Dissociative Identity Disorder is a complex dissociative disorder characterized by the presence of two or more distinct personality states with amnesia between them. Each personality is it's own individual person and may have different names, memories, personal histories, and characteristics.
It is currently believed that DID forms due to structural dissociation. When humans are below the ages of 7-9, we do not have a stable or integrated self/personality, and instead have parts. There is a part that craves love, a part that wants food, a part that is sad, etc etc. (This is why babies will go from crying to laughing in seemingly a few seconds.) When we reach the age of roughly 7-9, these parts, along with our experiences will integrate into one, whole personality. However, if a child experiences severe and repetitive trauma before this age, and does not have stable relationships with their primary caregivers (Parent(s), etc) then the brain will put up amnesic walls as a way to protect itself from the memories of the terrible things that have/are happening, and these walls prevent the personality from integrating, which results in the parts staying separate.
Contrary to popular belief and media representation, people with DID are not evil, nor dangerous. They are traumatized individuals who are more likely to hurt themselves than anyone else, and many have gone on to live happy, successful lives.

Dissociative - what is it?
where you wake up and you are someone else and then some time later you come back to yourself. The thing is you can demand people on acid to "dissociate!" and they think they do, but really they don't because part of a dissociative fugue is that it can't be drug-induced.
Alex: "Eli. Dissociate!"
Eli: "I like mittens!"
Josie: "Sweet God,I think Eli's having a dissociative fugue!
What does "dissociative" mean?
Writing without thinking, just writing the first hting that comes up
the sea illuminates the sky above the threshold of the shoulder which dissolves without selection upon the trench of death
Dissociative - what does it mean?
Fancy way of saying that someone’s arse (ass) is not connected to their elbow - derived from the saying that some idiotic person “can’t tell his arse from his elbow”.
Tom’s really stupid! Yeah I know - he has anocubital dissociation.
Dissociative - meaning
If you're sober and you feel any of the following :
- Feels like everything is a movie
- Feels like you are watching everything happen
- Feels like something is missing in your thoughts
- Feeling very worried
- Feels like your eyes are sensitive to light
- Feels like you see purple of images of lights, like when you look at the sun for too long
You smoked too much, you have to lay off for a few days, you are dissociating. If you are stoned and you feel these, that is normal. The dissociation effect is just the head effects of weed staying with you, but that feel good sensation is gone. That's why you have the symptoms of being high, even thought you aren't high. So you're good. Think of it like you smoked a lot and you're just still high. Sleep it off and in a few days, you'll be set. Drink lots of water.
DO NOT SMOKE WHILE THESE EFFECTS LINGER, THEY WILL ONLY WORSEN.
Chad: Dude, I heard that Josh got Weed Dissociation after smoking his entire stash. Now he's gonna lay off for a week.
Brad: That is actually wild, bro.

Dissociative
Dissociating is one of the most common responses to abuse and trauma. It involves feeling numb, detached or unreal and (while it happens to everyone once in a while) is experienced more frequently and severely in survivors. Dissociating people vary widely in symptoms and may experience any or all things from the following list.
Types of dissociation:
Depersonalisation
Common: “I feel strange / weird”, “I felt as if I was floating away”, “I felt disembodied / disconnected / detached / far away from myself”, “apart from everything”, “in a place of my own / alone”, “like I was there but not there”, “I could see and hear everything but couldn’t respond”.
Derealisation
“My surroundings seem unreal / far away”, “i felt spaced out”, “it was like looking at the world through a veil or glass”, “i felt cut off or distant from the immediate surroundings”, “objects appeared diminished in size / flat / dream-like / cartoon like / artificial / unsolid”.
Other dissociative symptoms:
Memory: “I drove the car home / got dressed / had dinner but can’t remember anything about it”, “I don’t who I am or how I got here” (fugue state), “ I remember things but it doesn’t feel like it was me that was there”.
Identity: “I feel like I’m two seperate people/someone else”.
Other: “I felt like Time was passing incredibly slow/quickly”, “I get so absorbed in a fantasy/TV programme that it seems real”, “I felt an emptiness in my head as if I was not having any thoughts at all”.

Dissociative
Dissociatives are a class of hallucinogen, which distort perceptions of sight and sound and produce feelings of detachment - dissociation - from the environment and self. This is done through reducing or blocking signals to the conscious mind from other parts of the brain. Although many kinds of drugs are capable of such action, dissociatives are unique in that they do so in such a way that they produce hallucinogenic effects, which may include sensory deprivation, dissociation, hallucinations, and dream-like states or trances. Some, which are nonselective in action and affect the dopamine and/or opioid. systems, may be capable of inducing euphoria. Many dissociatives have general depressant effects and can produce sedation, respiratory depressioncitation needed, analgesia, anesthesia, and ataxia, as well as cognitive and memory impairment and amnesia. These drugs include PCP aka Angel Dust, Ketamine aka Special K.
