Lisa there are TONS of different types of disassociation. I just recently had to do some assessments on it and discovered that I have numerous types going at the same time!
The first one you described, as just disappearing for a while, I have done and do, do all the time. It's one of my more common ones.
The second one sounds more like a type of flashback, as you describing the emotions. An emotional flashback perhaps? With a bit of imagery...
