When I'm anxious, specially in social situations, it feels like I'm suddenly going on auto-pilot, as if I'm dreaming, I say what I have to say but it goes by itself, as if I'm out of my body but at the same time more aware of my mind than ever. What is this?

This sounds like depersonalisation/derealisation...can happen when you are anxious. Quite frightening, but alas, just another symptom to deal with. I get this alot. Hope you are ok. Kitti :)

Its Depersonalisation... a sympton of anxiety... not an illness itself thankgod! can be very scary...like your an observer in your own body.... ive had it...also there is Derealization...where the world doesnt seem real at times......
have a read up on the SYMPTOMS column on the left panel, and its all explained there,...
