[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 667171, member: 14557"] I think I need to add that with Ache dissociative symptoms have been often quite dramatic. Things tend to change to him dramatically when he is having dissociative episode. Very elaborate hallucinations and thoughts and ideas he has hard time getting rid of. But he has always, aside some short panic attack type periods, been rather well aware that what he sees, hears or feels is not true. At worst he has needed to check a lot, either by touching or asking people he trust, but it has always been more 'I know this is my mind playing tricks, because what I see /hear/feel/think is not plausible, but it really feels/seems/sounds very lifelike. Can you again assure me again, that it is not true?' Of course not those words, but the intent. Before he was able to have very matter of fact attitude to these things most of the time. He in fact took it most of the time quite similar way than his synaesthesia (he has also a lot of that, it runs strongly in my family and also me and Joy are synaestesthesic if less so than Ache) and just accepted that he sometimes sees and feels differently than people typically do. Now it seems to be somehow different and he seems to believe it more and seems less aware that most people would not share his experience of things and that factual evidence does not support his feelings.
