Do you dissociate at all???
Everything bends and shifts for me when I rapidly enter dissociative states because I feel threatened by someone or something in my environment.
The reason why I ask is because it can also happen more easily when I am sick - and sounds can either be muted to me or faster or slower than in reality.
I've had times when I was snapped out of a dissociative state and I was aware that my mouth was open - but not that I was screaming.
The teacher had warned us that there were people huffing glue on the other side of the gym wall and that they might break some windows - when they did, it was enough to cause me to dissociate and scream from the shock of it actually happening. It wasn't until he spoke to me and I had to stop screaming to answer him that I knew that I was screaming.

@HootyTheNightOwl I’m aware of where I’m at and everything, it’s just that it sounded too slow, the lyrics, beats, everything. Maybe I found a glitch in the matrix? 😂
Woah 😱 crazy story, I nowhere near that bad 😅

@Ashly I've been aware enough to describe to my mother exactly what happens as I dissociated (obviously after the fact) because I was walking side by side with my "dad" (Physically abusive) through a hospital. I told her what I felt and what I saw - but she didn't recognise the fact that I was dissociating since I'm not allowed to be anything worse than depressed or she would disown me for being a "psycho". In my experience, it doesn't wipe your memory every time.

Hmm, that's odd. Have you taken any medication for the sickness that might be causing it?
Sorry you're not feeling well, this time of year sucks for that. :(

Everything is dreary when you are sick but, I've only noticed that (music sounding slower) when I listen to the same song on repeat for hours.

@Ashly Hmmm. Only virtual kisses for you tomorrow then...☹️

Kinda sorta. When I first listened to Turn The Page by Blind Guardian I used to think it was a really fast paced song, then later on it suddenly felt like it was performed at a slower tempo then I though. O__o

@AstroZombie it’s weird how somethings you do everyday and all of a sudden you notice somethings off
I listed to music today and it sounded normal speed 🤔

@Ashly Indeed so! And hopefully the sickness goes away soon too.
🤗 feel better. Get plenty of fluids. And possibly your head/ears/sinuses are feeling stuffed up and it is causing possibly it to seem that way?
