Cognitive disconnection: Difference between revisions

Line 4:

*Feeling as though reality has become distant and vague.

*Feeling as though reality is a film or a dream.

*Feeling as though the world beyond ~~ones~~ immediate external environment is simply non-existent.

*Feeling as though the world beyond one's immediate external environment is simply non-existent.

*A dosage proportional decrease in the overall speed, connectivity and analytical abilities of the conscious thought stream.

*Feeling as though ~~ones~~ conscious thought stream is not ~~ones~~ own, allowing it to be analysed from an unbiased third person perspective.

*Feeling as though one's conscious thought stream is not one's own, allowing it to be analysed from an unbiased third person perspective.

At higher dosages, the disconnection from consciousness eventually makes the transition from partial to all-encompassing. This results in the complete failure of a person's conscious thought stream, sense of self and long term memory. It can be experientially described as a state that is functionally identical to [[Cognitive effects: Ego suppression, loss and death|ego death]] and the feeling that there is no longer an "I" experiencing the trip; there is just the experience, as it is and by itself.
