Pre - dissociative state

when I am aware of switching I feel my body change. the room or place I am in looks different, I can see more of it. The sounds are louder but more muffled and I get dizzy. If we switch a lot really qucikly, I sometimes say things, trying to describe what is going on but it comes out in jumbled words. When the alters first started coming out around my friend/roommate switching was hard and it was a very rough transition. I believe I used to get quiet, it was a trans state and I used to tell Eliza (our friend) to be quiet or to wait too... - when I was aware-
there are other times I had or have no idea I have switched and then I lose time, and its harder to figure things out.
When I come back I rarely remember anything that has happened, and if I do its fragments. I usually have Eliza tell me or try to get an alter to write down what they did, esp. if it is important like taking medicine. I hope your boyfriend can figure this out and I am glad you are there to help him. good luck.
