I read that article not long ago. It described many familiar things, things that occur when I have a classic migraine (the kind with visual field cuts and scintillating scotomata that precede the headache). The sense of disconnection, of observing without integrating, is very strong. Each time I have one, I'm acutely aware that the neurological disturbances don't have to resolve. Terrifying.
