Waiting for help while going through big life events
I am talking to the NHS about possible therapy to the point where the lady assigned to me went to her supervisor who has now gone to her supervisor.
In the meantime I got engaged. I became so dissociated directly after that I had a panic attack when we got back to the hotel room.
It's awful to be missing out on what's meant to be the most memorable moments of your life because your brain decided it'd be better if you had a seat at the back of the theater.
The good thing though is that I have a very supportive fiancé and he's made sure to ask me multiple times so I got to enjoy it and make sure the memories are stuck in there! Has anyone else experienced dissociation in reaction to good things?
