@Soultender dissociation is generally a spectrum of states or phases and doesn't, on its own, automatically indicate any kind of diagnosis. Reaching any diagnosis of any kind of dissociative disorder is based on gathering a lot of information in addition to understanding the reason for the states to begin with.
@Soultender for example subspace is technically on a dissociative spectrum but it's an induced state brought on by a combination of specific naturally occurring chemicals. It's not a response to negative trauma but rather the body naturally responding to positive stress. So it's not an indicator of a disorder ... it's just part of a phase or process in how the mind and body work together for or against you depending on the circumstances.
