Just tried out Witch House. Made me feel funny, didn't like it. Had to listen to some synthwave to feel normal again .

Witch House is my life

 I view it as a musical depressant. As you know, I'm more for stimulants (like italo disci)

I guess you're too weak willed to face digital witchcraft. 

You were asking about dissociation, now you'd rather have Synthwave trash? 

 I'm just for more lush soundscapes

I have access to a bunch of different moods and -scapes through music. 

I used to use it to steer through LSD trips when I was still experimenting with that.

lol 

 

I'm going to be answering this from an OSDD/DID perspective, talking about like dissociative disorders or, symptomatic dissociation from PTSD or other mental disorders. 

 

I get what you mean about trance music but, I dunno... dissociation is such a weird and intangible thing. It's elusive to any set of measurable standards or rules, and cannot be predicted, charted, or made sense of so easily. 

 

But it is understood there are positive and negative triggers. 

 

While I understand what you are saying about trance music, and how you sort of space out listening to it. What I'm talking about here is different from that type of dissociation. 

 

People with dissociative disorders have the ability to "leave their body" (as my therapist calls it) in a number of ways. Blocking pain, fear, or any otherwise negative emotion, thought, situation. 

 

Sometimes it can be triggered like a flight or fight response, as a form of protection. 

 

Interestingly, positive triggers though can bring out an OSDD/DID systems alters, to the front very quickly. Like certain activities, material items, even a conversation or a setting. And as the guy above figured out in the video, it can be done with music. 

 

For Blanc 

 

my other alters don't have names, though I could come up with some fake ones for clarity's sake. But it would be names I gave to them that don't really exist. If that makes sense. It feels sort of like looking at a cactus and saying, "that's a tractor." It just, doesn't feel right to give them a name that isn't theirs. 

 

The only reason Blanc has a name is because blanc is the one that registered the SC account. Lol. 

 

So while it's not really a name, like as in an identifying name, it is a username they definitely chose on their own and the closest thing I have to a name or a label to give them. 

 

Positive trigger for one of my other alters.

(the first one on this list-a comprehensive list of current known alters https://sociopathcommunity.com/Forum/Topic/4389/3/blanc-needs-to-be-stopped )

 

The rest I don't have any music for I don't think. I dunno. Lol.

Ever hear of Zebra Katz? 

He has some more mainstream stuff to try to lure in listeners with some crazy vibrant eyegrabbing textures, but once you get into it you find stuff like this: 





How do these make you feel?

The song "money" breaks that trend really hard. 

Otherwise this is the stereotype, but it became that for a reason.

I don't think it makes me "dissociate" but when I play a game or thing about something, I align my music in whatever thing I'm doing, so if I play a game like Hearts of Iron 4, and my goal is to re-create the German Empire, I'll listen to Heil dir im Siegerkranz. 


Some songs when I play games, I listen to them, and I feel this weird tingling all over my body and it motivates me a lot. 


Well, even outside of games, if I listen to some songs, I feel a connection to it, it's not all songs, but some, and in certain moments. It's not a common thing for me.

Dissociate's too strong of a word for it imo, but it is worth noting what notes and tones affect our behaviors and sensations. 

Sound in general is surprisingly infiltrative, especially when visuals are closer to textures and colors (some Vevo work's a little too spot on). Even lyrics can be suggestive, as we see in many pop genres these days with words like "relax", "breathe", and "sleep", literally hypnosis words.
