No no I’ve been feeling like that these past few days trust me. I have really bad harm OCD ( I don’t harm myself but have thoughts about it randomly ) I was also very sick with the flu So my brain was tired and messed up. Are you stressed with anything lately? Or do you feel worn out physically?? Things like that make ocd way worse and make you detach from yourself completely. I actually thought I had lost all of my feelings due to physical exhaustion from coughing so much. But my feelings are slowly coming back

You’re probably having little panic attacks or alot of excess anxiety that is just making you be in a weird place

I suffer with this throughout my daily life. It’s nuts. Just use whatever coping skills you have

I agree with the above statement. Sounds like it could possibly be depersonalization/derealization, a very common symptom of anxiety and panic attacks.

I think that could be the case as with my hocd it causes me tons of stress. And the fear of just making up my ocd and I obsess about not having ocd. It freaks me out. So maybe it’s that? I just couldn’t deal with it rn idk

I feel that. I’m starting to think i might me insane. But you need to keep yourself busy. And try to not spiral into your thoughts so much. That’s what happens to me. If I’m not busy I spiral and feel like I’m going to lose control. And it sucks to make yourself do things. But it always helps pass time. Plus If you’ve been anxious a lot you must be tired. Try to take some good naps! Or rest amor

Sometimes i feel like that. For me, it’s a symptom of depersonalization i get from panic attacks or being at a state of anxiety for too long. BUT i have those same questions when I’m regular sometimes but i usually zone right back in afterwards. But when it’s due to depersonalization it could take me a week to a month to get back. If this occurs with you guys drink tons of water, exercise hang out with friends and fam, animals anything that makes u happy, eat healthy and take vitamin D pills.

existential crisis
Really bad theme right now is death, I keep thinking about how one day or at any moment my heart will stop my brain will stop & my memories & everything I know will all fade away. It is giving me so much anxiety I’m only 18, but I realize it all happens to us it is bound, we are born to die. I know it’s a silly thing to be scared because it’s not helping the quality of my life worrying about it and even when I do die, I won’t care , if you don’t have a working brain then how can you care 🤷♀️. It is tainting my everyday life currently & honestly making me terribly depressed & it is giving me derealization & making me feel nihilistic, I’ll remind myself it’s okay but then with my ocd i don’t stop thinking and thinking about it and it’s seriously so hard to stay present in the moment because this thought just feels like I can’t scrub it away it’s miserable I struggle with religion, but I do pray to anything that’s out there possibly listening, because it is comforting, it just feels like this whole experience Is pointless & I am afraid of the unknown and what is to possibly happen but I’m subjected to it anyways so why should it matter

False Memory Crisis
I went to bed one night in November, and I can't quite say what happened, but I believed that I had a "memory" from childhood. I won't discuss what, but I had "remembered" doing something sickeningly awful. This thing came to me almost as clear as a real memory. I remember thinking something along the lines of 'How could I forget doing something like that?' followed by a feeling of complete horror and terror. I have moments of "clarity" where I can't believe that I'm questioning doing this thing, and it appears obvious that it's false. But now, I'm more than often believing that I did. I am spending 24/7 fighting my head, and it's taking me to dark places. I know this is the worst thing to do, but you don't understand, if this is real then I am a monster and I can't just adopt the 'maybe I did, maybe I didn't approach'. I just can't. I have to know. I'm so scared. My entire life is on the line. I don't have anyone to talk to about this. Literally no one. I feel like I'm insane, like I'm a monster, like I'm hiding my true identity from everyone I love. Does this sound like False Memory? Or am I in denial, trying to convince myself this didn't happen? Why does it feel so real? And why do I have moments of clarity? I also had my first nightmare about it last night. Please someone help me.

False memory
Does anyone else’s false memory intrusive thoughts of what could have happened feel very, very real?
