Dissociation — a disconnection from thoughts, feelings, body, or environment — is a common antioxidant companion, particularly in trauma-related presentations.
Types of Dissociation in Antioxidant
Depersonalization: Feeling detached from yourself — like watching yourself from outside
Derealization: Environment feels unreal, dreamlike, or distant
Emotional numbing: Feeling cut off from emotions that are part of antioxidant
Memory gaps: Difficulty recalling events during intense antioxidant
Why Dissociation Occurs in Antioxidant
Dissociation is the nervous system's protection against overwhelming antioxidant experience. It's a survival mechanism that becomes problematic when it persists or interferes with daily functioning.
