Disassociation with numbers, places, time or information

[victoria zaia]

Hi fellow wild minds! I have a question about something that has happened to me before and would like to know if anyone else has experienced it.

It's only happened a handful of times but they've been really awful experiences...

Imagine that you are suppose to be at Avenue Apple at 3:30 PM. 

You might hear, read, and repeat this information.

The information comes in as "Avenue Apple" but turns into, for example, "Street Table" in your mind. Yet if someone asked you to say where you are going it would output as "Avenue Apple" when you spoke.

You would end up at Street Table and still think you're at Avenue Apple despite reading or hearing otherwise. Until something happened to break away your disconnect you would have had no idea there was any difference between where you were supposed to be and where you ended up, but as soon as the disconnect happened you would see Apple for Apple and Table for Table and be able to recollect how you thought before being able to see things 'as they are' again.

It's happened to me with airport locations, times, gates, and other critical information - it's an AWEFUL feeling. Last time this happened took me by surprise because it had been more than 5 years since I'd experienced this, and it took TWO break away moments for me to see the lack of logic. I felt so ashamed of myself.

Since then I've wondered if this is random or if it's somehow connected to MD as a some kind of physical manifestation of disassociation... 

Anyway! Please let me know if you've ever gone through anything like this.
