You know when you’re daydreaming and there’s that little disorentation in the moment where you snap back to paying attention to what’s going on?

It’s a bit like that, except you can’t snap back and you’re aware that your thoughts aren’t engaging properly. It’s uncomfortable but really hard to focus on what’s wrong because you can’t control your thoughts enough to recognize the problem.

Kindof like daydreaming a panic attack.

Note: really subjective experience so probably lot’s of examoles and interperetations.
