I’m dissociating lol

2025/1/19 Edited to

... Read moreDissociation is a psychological experience where a person feels disconnected from their thoughts, feelings, or sense of identity. In recent years, the topic has gained traction on social media platforms, particularly TikTok, leading to a surge in discussions around mental health. As TikTok continues to evolve, hashtags like #tiktok and #tiktokban have taken center stage, reflecting the dynamic nature of conversations surrounding mental health. Recent studies emphasize the importance of social dialogue in de-stigmatizing mental health issues, highlighting how platforms like TikTok can both inform and misinform public perceptions. TikTok's return to the spotlight has fostered communities dedicated to supporting individuals navigating dissociative states, making it essential to critically engage with content online. Users are encouraged to share their experiences, validate one another's feelings, and promote awareness while being mindful of the potential for misinformation. The nuanced relationship between social media and mental health continues to unfold, with TikTok serving as both a platform for expression and a space for learning.

For most of my life, I was in survival mode—and I didn’t even realize it. I’ve been through so many layers of trauma that my body forgot what safety even felt like. I was constantly on edge, hyper-independent, emotionally shut down, and running on autopilot. I wasn’t living—I was just trying to

I’m sorry
(Not really) I never really thought a whole lot about my eyes until I started making content. There’s a video a year ago where I ask the audience if they ever stare at the mirror too long and dissociate. A comment that stuck: “Girl. Staring at YOUR eyes too long makes me dissociate” So..

When I’m dissociating vs when I’m actually calm
This is how I can tell now ⬇️ When I’m dissociating I get a weird feeling in my body. It’s hard to describe but it feels icky & like my body and me are disconnecting. I can feel tense in muscles like my calves & my stomach gets really bloated! I can feel kinda tired and out of it.
