I do hope you'll follow up later on with what you experience. I was feeling some "dissociation" when I was still meditating regularly, and the disappearance of this when I stopped was very welcome. There was a sense of separation that disappeared, and the experience of my interface with life felt more seamless, if that makes sense. I have a friend who also mentioned dissociation, and I've wondered about that a lot. As I said in another post, I still meditate sometimes when I'm tired, and doing it occasionally doesn't bring that effect -- perhaps as you say it's a matter of degree. I find it difficult to even pinpoint what I mean by dissociation, but in that you and my friend mentioned it, I'm curious to investigate it more.
