Dissociation is a serious condition resulting from PTSD. When triggers of past trauma arise, the mind tries to shut the body down through dissociation. Sometimes it is through a flashback, or a disconnect from reality. These situations while in public or driving can cause injury to the person. So it is important to understand what triggers it and how to ground oneself when dissociation occurs.
