Disconnected

There are times when I feel disconnected from my body - my brain is still thinking, but it is doing so separately from what my body is doing. I image it is much like my computer when I am running the virus checker - the computer is busy doing its thing, so it can't really do anything else very fast.

I'm sure my kids hate when they call me and my brain is off and wandering. I feel the thought process slows way down when I try to focus and concentrate on the conversation that is happening in the here and now.

I even feel this way sometimes when I am sleeping - the body is sleeping but the brain is off and running. It is just weird.

Does anyone else with DID ever feel this way?
