Like one time I was fighting with my partner and it felt like we were an entire football field away from each other even though we were just across the room. And every time they talked I physically felt like I was the size of a doll.

Or sometimes on bad dysphoria days I’ll watch myself type and my thumbs will look huge to me. Or sometimes they’ll feel really far away.

Is there a name for this? Is it indicative of anything?

    I feel like this is a style of dissociation. I get the one where I feel like I’m watching my body do things from the outside, or I’m looking out of my eyes through distant TV screens.

    EDIT:
