Anon presented this as an a/b change, not a conceptual moment. That is a person who found a framework for depersonalization to take its footing in, even if it’s presented in a silly manner. There is not a prerequisite that states it must be pervasive enough to be the point of “no alternative” to be valid, that is asinine

A "moment of Epiphany" and "imagining myself" are an abstraction of imagination and not an a/b change.

An abstraction of imagination that results in a complete loss of inhibition?

Hyperbole is a common form of expression in abstractive thought. It is a problem I've dealt with a lot in my life. Complete loss can still have many meanings in terms of the layer of inhabitation the person is referring to. They could be referring to their own internal perception of social anxiety, decision making, or an overall perception of their potential to actuate meaningful change in their life. Given the context of 'talking to random NPCs', the most likely meaning is a loss of social anxiety.

that is asinine

I had to go back and reread the whole comment as Hank Hill.
