Can anyone tell me what the difference between dissociation and sub-space is? They sound somewhat similar to me, which concerns me. In case You are not familiar with dissociation here's an explanation of it

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociation

Thanks for any information You can provide,
Kali

Hopefully i've fixed the problem. Thanks for letting me know.

The link references a blank page.

DarkSteven,
Hopefully i've fixed the problem. I don't really feel like wikipedia does an adequate job of describing dissociation.

Well, usually if you've had a fugue state, an episode of dissociation, you feel terrified afterwards. You're frightened by it. People report you as doing/saying things atypical and you have no memory at all, then or afterwards.

With subspace, time sense gets distorted. You might think you're answering a question immediately but it is actually five minutes later. You usually have some memories of what happened immediately following and you tend to get back the highlights in the next day or two. Ddissociation you can speak fluently while during subspace you will understand what's being said, you just can't seem to access your verbal center to respond. And most of all, you aren't upset to have gone into subspace the people do become afraid of having been in a fugue state.
