depersonalization:

1. The sense of loss of one's personal identity, often involving a feeling of strangeness about oneself. This alteration in the perception of the self is seen in certain types of mental illnesses; it can also often result from anxiety.

2. In BDSM, a generic term for humiliation scenes in which a dominant requires that a submissive assume a role totally different from their normal role, usually that of an inanimate object (such as a footstool) or a lower form of animal life (such as a puppy or a pony).
