In this episode of the Neuro Collective Podcast, Dr. Michael and May Bagnell explore the often-misunderstood world of dissociation a mental disconnection from thoughts, emotions, memories, or even one’s sense of self.
They break down dissociation into five key parts:
- What it is – a clear definition and real-life relatable examples.
- The science behind it – what happens in the brain during dissociation.
- Signs and symptoms – how to recognize it in yourself or others.
- Healing pathways – strategies and therapies that support reconnection.
- Daily practices – a simple grounding exercise you can start using today.
From social media and gaming overload to the impacts of trauma and stress, this conversation shines light on why dissociation is showing up more in younger generations and, most importantly, how healing and reconnection are possible.
If you or someone you love has ever felt emotionally numb, foggy, or detached from reality, this episode offers both clarity and hope.
