Has anyone else noticed this? Or is it just me?

So I’m sick, again πŸ˜’ 🀧😷
And I’m laying in bed listening to music, and no matter what I play it sounds slower. I checked my settings and it’s playing at a normal speed πŸ€”

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? πŸ˜‚
Woah 😱 crazy story, I nowhere near that bad πŸ˜…
@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.
