DAE feel like they turn off and need to turn themselves on again?
Best way I can figure to describe it. A lot of the time I'll be doing something, like getting a cup from the cupboard for example, and then I'll just stop. Go blank, stare at nothing, literally head empty, body empty. I have to jerk myself out of it but sometimes it can take a lot of effort. No memory loss during these events but it feels different than just watching something quietly. It feels like a light switch has been turned off, or I fade out. There and gone, but I can rouse myself out of it after a moment. Almost like dissociation but emptier, if that makes sense, and brief, with way less brain fog. Like a skipping CD or cassette tape. Is this something that happens to anyone else? Thanks in advance.
