Anyone with OCD and anxiety feel derealization? I'm feeling so out of it that it's trying to make me anxious. Any tips for this.

Hi BravoBravo, I have certainly felt that way before, especially when my stress and anxiety are at their peak, like they’re doubling down on my state at the time…feels like I’m in a fog or haze with my intrusive thoughts making me doubt whether anything is real, or if maybe I’m still in a dream or something. My emotions are usually muted when I’m in the thick of it as well. The best thing I can think of is relaying when these episodes happen to your therapist if you have one, or someone else you confide in. Talking to someone always seemed to help me, not for reassurance, but just to get it off my chest and sort of keep me grounded. Also, when it happens, I would try to remind myself, so what if it is or isn’t real, and try to act as if I normally would and not do something ridiculous that would cause harm to me or others just in case. Stay strong and best wishes.
