medications for dissociative states? any input

Posted by ryan312 on March 18, 2004, at 16:34:44

I have a real problem with dissociation which dates back to childhood trauma.

I often find myself "spacing out" and then mildly hurting myself. This brings me back out of the state. By mildly I mean pinching myself severely and things of that nature.

I am in therapy. And take meds prozac and klonopin. However, i am wondering if any meds help prevent one from going into a dissociative state?

I understand the various psychological theories about dissociation.
However, it still boils down to a chemical state in ones mind which makes a person dissociate.

So, there must be a medication that could help prevent that coping mechanism, dissocation, from kicking in? Does anyone else experience this and has anything helped medication wise?? thanks in advance. Ryan

Magdalena. I will be happy too. Unfortunately, I don't think we are getting a lot of feedback on this. I need to search pubmed.org and medline and see what I can find if anything. take care.
