I never did say it was linked with that area of the brain. I specifically said I DIDNT know which area of the brain dissociation was from. I simply replying to the original commenter what the out of body feeling experience was. And I never said anything about drugs. For Pete's sake, calm down.

Everyone and every situation is different, so I couldn't give you an accurate answer to that. I do know that it is an extremely wide umbrella. Dissociation is actually something Everyone experiences at some point. If it doesn't happen alot, there's a better chance of being unaffected. Like highway hypnosis. It might freak you out after it happens but you generally shake it off and be more aware. Whereas a person who experiences repeated trauma or maybe even a more..life threatening type of trauma will have a greater likelihood of being affected and needing treatment. And depending on the person and how, if, they get treatment what treatments they do, what their support circles look like, what, if any, resources do they have access to. So really, that's where the variables really come into play but on spectrum, Dissociation can be resolved. On the other spectrum, depending on circumstance worst case it cant and its more about management than trying to cure. I assume there's way better info though than I can give you here. This is bare bones.

Freeze mode is part of the fight or flight mode. It's not usually tacked on, though I should have. Dissociation is the out of body experience you feel triggered from the trauma and subsequent fight, flight or freeze mode. Tonic immobility would be a symptom of freeze mode specifically. I encourage you to google dissociation. It's fascinating what the brain can do in severe traumatic situations to help us survive.

That's called dissociation. When your body/brain experiences such severe trauma you can't get away from, it's a survival skill. Your brain forceably takes control and keeps you "away" to protect you. Now the mechanics I'm not sure of, what part of the brain etc. Everyone Dissociates, maybe you've heard of highway hypnosis. That's a type of dissociation. The problem is if it keeps happening, the type of trauma that usually does, it basically creates a form of brain damage and your unable to regulate the dissociation. Which is how dissociative disorders are formed.

I mean... would you rather be in a marriage to a man where the entire foundation was a lie? You're in your 30s. That's some 20s talk, when our brains are still growin lol. Better now than 10 years and 2 kids later, you walk in on him and the neighbor. He did you a favor.

Lol back in the early 2000s when cell phones weren't a thing, I called my best friend (memorized her number). A woman answered and I said hey gram blah blah is my friends name home? Yep,calls her over, tell her its me and we start talking. Took us 3 minutes to figure out we had no idea who each other was and we both had the names of our respective friends and apparently sounded extremely similar with a similar family set up. We all thought we knew each other. I don't know how that happened or how it took so long to figure out.

Nothing I told you about dissociation is wrong. I stated everything I stated, and yet you didn't read my comment through and got a hair up your ass. As someone with the mental illness myself and having a therapy team of doctors for years now, I simply told you the information on dissociation. All credible verifiable facts. I STATED the other portions that I didn't know (for this exact hateful ass unnecessary reason), you could have just said "oh for dissociation it's this part of the brain, for this part of the brain it's for this."
Stop acting like I have said nothing verifiable by a simple google search when really you can't just hold a reasonable conversation and have to go all ridiculous.
