Does anyone ever have bad period pain that makes them feel really spaced out?
If I had to describe it I would say its like being on strong painkillers like morphine. So you feel very spaced out, and if some talks to you if feels like they're very far away and it's hard to respond, it feels like nothing is real and like you're not in your body but far away. It's very unnerving.
I was explaining it to DH and he says it sounds like dissociation.
Is this a normal response to pain?
It only happens to me occasionally, but when it does its awful.
