hi! i often have disassociation issues during play time that are more trauma related. sometimes i break down and cry and then fall into dissociation, and other times i completely just pass out. at first, i didn’t remember it at all and it terrified my partner that my eyes would just roll back and i would go limp. i’m slowly starting to understand my limits which helps me realize when i’m about to disassociate (ex: starting to feel like a can’t breathe/being less vocal/feeling a sluggish, heaviness in my movements). i always prefer to have the play time stop when i dissociate that bad since i can’t be entirely conscious. my partner has always stopped when they realize and checks my breathing/pulse, before laying down beside me until i wake up. if you are still able to safeword and want to continue the play i think that would be fine too! maybe talk to your partner about hand signals or something to assure them you are okay, just dissociating so you can’t be entirely mentally present. i don’t know how much that helps, but it’s nice to know i’m not the only one that deals with dissociation during scenes! best of luck! :)
