What do you guys do when you feel like you’re losing yourself or like you’re detached from reality

What do you mean my mindfulness? Meditation?

@random_person Yeah it’s like meditation. It claims to improve your brain in away to be engaged in the present. And it’s only 6 minutes. I’m not saying it’s going to cure you or anything but it definitely helps. They say you can see improvement if you do it consistently

What is it like for you

@random_person Overall, I feel super disconnected from where I am and what I’m doing; it’s hard to describe since it’s my “normal.” I’m on autopilot a lot of the time. I feel like I can’t catch my breath or fully take in an experience. I may be present in a space, but mentally I’m not “there.” I get tunnel vision and turn inward into my own thoughts. I feel like time is moving slowly for me but I can’t keep up with others. I can’t process things as quickly as others. I often have to have people repeat what they said or rewind a show to catch exactly what they were saying because I zone out. I’m disconnected from my emotions. I can’t decipher what I want a lot of the time even if it’s just deciding what I want my day to look like. I’m very numbed out. I don’t have an official diagnosis, but this is definitely something that I’ll be bringing up to my therapist. There’s something called dissociative depression, and I can relate to some of those symptoms.

@loveisanopendoor I totally understand that. I'm pretty that in this stage right now. It's like I'm watching myself from a 3rd person view. Ocd makes it even worse when I start doubting my own existence. I have figured out that it start getting bad when my anxiety is very high.

@Ina16 I'm pretty sure that I'm in this stage*
