Thank goodness for the haven you have with DH after that experience. I am glad you got that visit over with. Must have felt like torture. This week will be a piece of cake comparatively.

Disassociation may not seem functional, but I think at times it is the most functional way of dealing with tumultuous situations. It is a go to response for me, too. It has served me well throughout my life, offering protection when most needed. Disassociation is an old friend from my childhood. As an aware adult, when it visits I can identify it, just like you did, evaluate it, and deal with it.
