Depersonalisation?
I would love to hear if anybody has experience or help regarding this this :) I was once having this OCD thought and I was carrying out my compulsions, all of a sudden I felt like I had just gone out of touch and like I had just completely shut off and disconnected mentally and emotionally, I felt my stress levels drop but not in a comforting way. I have been reading that depersonalisation come as a result of intense stress. This particular thought that I am speaking about is my worst yet, it brings me so much stress, could this be depersonalisation? Ever-since then I’ve felt like I’m not me, everything that once seemed familiar wasn’t anymore (not in a dramatic way) but I feel like I’m so disconnected, that’s the best word I could use since the feeling is very distant and weird. How do I get out of this? I feel like the only time I feel remotely connected and present is when I think of that time when I was having the thought and I shut off, it’s almost like I’m mentally still in that moment. Please share any help or tips if you have experienced this before or have knowledge about it :)
