I’ve been feeling this for a couple of weeks now. I just feel nothing. I just have this feeling, that my family is talking to my ghost when they are with me. I am disgusted of food, I don’t think I even need it anymore. When I am walking I feel like i am walking on nothing but air. Sometimes I can convice myself, this can’t be real, but sometimes I get sucked in and just feel hopeless and like I’m dead.

I sometimes have these episodes where everything seems fake, or grey, or bright. Sometimes I just feel empty. I don’t think it means you’re dead. 
That said, I do struggle with the feeling of being dead sometimes. I guess the way to overcome it is to think “even if I am dead, why does it matter? I can still go on about my existence.”
There is a delusion called Cotard’s Delusion when the sufferer believes they are already dead, this must be a horrible feeling for you. I knew someone in hospital who had this delusion, she seemed very depressed, like she had given up on the possibility she could still be alive. She had ECT and is cured her. I’m not saying this is the answer for you, but it is a recognised condition and it can be treated. I hope you have a doctor or psychiatrist you can speak to about this, you can be helped.

Cotards Delusion.
I totally get this guy. He is not physically dead…he is emotionally dead …that he feels.
I have never been emotionally dead. I never sat like that …limp.
I have felt i was spiritually dead…mentally head…that feels like you dont live on the planet earth. My muscles were alive and i was emotionally alive but i saw i wasnt HERE anymore.
