DESCRIPTION
Subspace refers to the trancelike state some submissives experience during BDSM play. While subspace can feel different for different people, many describe it as feeling “light,” “floaty,” or “like mush.”
Does that mean “subspace” is just a fancy way to refer to dissociation? No! But there are some similarities.
Both are out-of-body experiences that involve feeling disconnected from reality.
The key difference is that most submissives claim subspace as a happy or euphoric rush, whereas dissociation can be a detachment from your whole being — including your ability to feel.
