Dissociative symptoms after exercise. Any experience here?

[lmfao]

After exercising I'll often feel a bit dissociated from my surroundings and myself. I've been making a lot of good changes about myself and my lifestyle recently as well, so maybe the dissociative symptoms are ego backlash. Feeling as though my life is a bit like a dream or movie. 

I've made a lot of good changes to my routine and thought patterns at once maybe, and all the physical/mental/spiritual flux is messing me up, I don't know. Seeing too much at once maybe, don't know. This feels like some "dark side of spiritual work" or something, even if I haven't really been engaging in meditation or yoga or formal inquiry. But just from self actualisation changes to myself. 

I'm just making this thread to see if anyone here has experience with dissociation and dissociative symptoms after exercise, or just how exercise in general effects you if you have had dissociative tendencies before. 

Recently I've developed more of a mindset of "weathering the storm". So if I have a negative feeling which won't go away I'll just try to stay with it regardless of how long I have to. 

There's a weird "high" to the dissociative symptoms, so maybe it isn't so bad that I needed to make this thread. I'll have to stay with it more. I think that it's just my mind a bit foggy and drunken/disjointed in leaps when feeling like this. Which is to say, a lack of broader perspective of how this is fine. 

Crossed fingers this isn't an omen of schizophrenia to come.

I spent so much time just observing my body today, acting on instinct, which I don't normally do. So I hope this is the shedding of some skin or something, time will tell.
