'''Disconnective effects''' can be defined as any sensory effect which feels as if it dettaches or disconnects one from the external environment, their senses and their consciousness. These effects are intrinsically associated with [[dissociative]] [[halllucinogen]]s and occur due to the way in which these compounds function as [[NMDA receptor antagonists]]. This means they bind to the receptor, but do not activate it and block other [[neurotransmitter]]s from doing so. The result is a dose dependent decrease in the passing of electrical signals across the brain and an overall disconnection of neurons. This leads onto states of disconnection between conscious parts of the brain and its sensory organs.
