It can feel different for different people

When I dissociate, I usually feel like nothing is real and like I'm disconnected to my body, but not to the point of an out-of-body experience. Sometimes I experience distortion of limbs, especially my hands, or like my voice isn't mine. Over all of it, I experience mental numbness - dissociation is one of the few times my head stops making noise and my brain becomes an empty chamber.

It feels like dreaming. Like nothing is quite real, sensations are distant, your emotions are kind of dulled. With the exception of the fact that I had an almost violent repulsion to seeing my reflection in the mirror. I don't know how to explain it... It didn't look like me. I didn't realize how bad it was until it was gone, though. It was like my headphones weren't all the way plugged in, and I wasn't wearing my glasses, and then suddenly the static was gone, the sound was full and rich, and everything was crystal clear. Coming out of a dissociation is something amazing.

feels like i have disconnected from my body and my movements aren't mine
