Is Time Prison supposed to skip my turns?

[EggSaladSandwich]

Playing my alchemist, I was fighting the Weirdling Beast that guards the Sher'tul fortress. I was controlling the golem when he casts Time Prison on me, the golem. Then instantly it skips like 5 turns while my alchemist wails on him with some staff bolts. Luckily, she did kill him without me while the dumb monster keeps trying to hit time-prisoned-golem-me. But surely, as an alchemist especially, I should get the option to switch to another controllable character while I'm Time Prisoned instead of just skipping all the turns? Is there any counter to Time Prison?

That is a pretty obscure situation for it to have specific code already written in to account for it.
