    @LoriGottlieb1 @hubermanlab No. That’s not what the neuroscience literature on dissociation states. You’re not “feeling” a thing. That doesn’t mean you weren’t overwhelmed prior to so called “numbing.” https://t.co/yvvvjwR3BW

Abstract Synopsis

  • Dissociation involves disruptions in consciousness, perception, memory, and identity, such as depersonalization, derealization, amnesia, and emotional numbing, but its exact brain mechanisms are not fully understood.
  • Neuroimaging studies on brain changes in disorders like depersonalization/derealization disorder, dissociative identity disorder, and posttraumatic stress disorder have provided insights into how dissociation might relate to brain function and structure, though research specifically on borderline personality disorder (BPD) is limited.
  • The article reviews recent neuroimaging research linking dissociation to brain alterations in BPD and discusses how these findings compare to earlier studies, highlighting methodological challenges and potential directions for future research and clinical practice.
