I feel like that with a lot of medication. When I decreased it, it helped me considerably. But next step was to get myself back in a fix routine. Take it a day at a time. I go to work each day which really helps, try to keep your self busy. I talk to friends and hang around with them.

Did you use to do drugs?To me it seems you have also a n anti_social phobia . Try to deal with your emotions and thoughts and try to control them because you 're in control and you can do it because they are your thoughts and your emotions ; and fight what you're feeling because you can help yourself.Instead of going where your emotions guide you fight them and try feeling what you want to feel.Also you can find someone who you trust and and try to talk about what you're feeling.

Calm down!!

I meet people exactly the am as you every day, so your not the only one. It sounds silly but what really helps the people I deal with is something called a system restore, yes I know it sounds silly but it does actually help them. Think of yourself as a computer, sometimes computers have on and off days, just like humans and computers catch viruses and things that make them 'ill', so do humans. So now do a system restore, close your eyes for 10mins and promise yourself that whatever it was that was bugging you before is now gone... Gone!! Tell yourself im not putting up with it anymore, im here to live and I intend to do that as from now. It sounds very much like a mental issue you have rather than something that you would have an operation for, and mental issuses can be sorted out by talking to someone about all your problems and not bottling them up. Speak to your doctor and explain the situation get his opinion. It sounds a bit like de-je-vou. Just calm yourself down when things get a bit heavy and enjoy life. Let me know how you get on.

Dear weird

you sound like your either totally embelishing how you feel, your on some serious drugs, or you have a serious mental condition. Please I would love to help you but I want you to explain to me how you feel a bit better, and maybe tell me a bit about yourself before I start suggesting things.

Hi weird,

sounds like depersonalization disorder. It is a dissociative disorder. Lots of people get it from severe anxiety. They'll have it as a result of anxiety, but wont necisarily be feeling any anxiety while they are depersonalizing/derealizing. I know others who developed it from using marijuana and other drugs. And it's also common in schizophrenia. I have it as part of schizophrenia, but in your case, it sounds like a result of your anxiety.

I am a member of a depersonalization and derealization disorder forum. If you want the adress, i'll give it to you.

Good luck
