Tactile disconnection can be defined at lower to moderate doses as a disconnection from the physical senses which is only partial in its effects. This creates a number of changes in a person's perception of the physical body which generally include:

  • Feeling as if your body is not your own
  • Feeling as if your body is performing its physical actions autonomously and on its own accord
  • A partial loss of tactile input or general bodily numbness and anaesthesia
  • A partial loss of fine and gross motor control

At higher dosages, this disconnection of the physical senses makes the transition from partial to entirely all-encompassing. This results in a complete disconnection from one's own body and full-blown anaesthesia which is accompanied by a total loss of motor control. Once this happens, the tripper will find themselves in a catatonic state with an inability to perform even the simplest of physical tasks.
