Hi sugarplum
Yes feel the same way. I think we both feel the same way but are describing it a little different as it's virtually impossible to describe it properly. It's so bizare.
Yeah I just feel like I am not me anymore it's so so awful. Xx

Have you found anything that helps alittle? It seems to have just consumed me and I can't break from the horrible cycle of it. I started quite bad a year and half ago but had a couple of months where i managed it and was able to go out and do things but these last couple of months and especially last few weeks just seem to have escalated so much and I can't cope with the feelings. I don't even know what normal feels like anymore so I just don't know what I should feel I just know I don't feel right one bit...being me and a person feels so strange. Your right it's very hard to explain. Xx

hi there i have no idea what to do but it is awful :(

Ian, I know how you feel. I feel like I'm not myself and not present in reality. Also, it's like I've not got enough sensation in my limbs, if the limbs are even mine to begin with!

[ian6989]

its so strange. does it ever go

[ana]

It does go. When I'm calm, I feel fine, but when I'm anxious... All my panic attacks manifest through depersonalisation. I wish I knew how to eliminate it, though, because it's so unsettling. Hang in there, Ian, you're definitely not alone in this.

Hi thanks for the reply
It's just I can't stop thinking about it :(
It's constant :(

[Sugarplum001]

It's constant for me too. I totally understand the uncomfortable to be you feeling. I feel so strange and constantly feel odd and different like I don't know who I am and 'me' really doesn't feel right...I can feel it all over and don't know what's right anymore as it all just feels too strange. I've forced myself to go out a couple of times today but really struggling with it all. X

Hi sugarplum
Yeah it's awful isn't it
Do you take medication ?
I take venlafaxine and quetiapine

It'll go away, Ian, I promise. It's your focusing on it that's perpetuating the problem. If you can, please try and engage in an activity that really keeps you occupied.
