Is dissociation really that bad? I don't notice it having a really negative impact, I just forget conversations and have a hard time paying attention or remembering some things. This seems like an okay trade off for not feeling or remembering stressful situations. Usually ppl just think you're a little scatterbrained or forgetful. I'd rather be called a space cadet than remember things that cause me flashbacks and are emotionally crippling. Why does it have a negative connotation? Some ppl just see it as daydreaming and a normal thing because everyone does it a little bit.
Is there something that happens that I don't know about, if it gets worse or you induldge in it? I feel like its a healthy coping mechanism to simply forget bad things, whats wrong with it that people want to treat "dissociation" and would be concerned about that of all things?
