Anyone relate with me?

I get that feeling sometimes. I think that that feeling is derealization.

If it bothers you, maybe try some grounding techniques.

I used to think that when I was delusional. It’s like depersonalization or derealization. Just a weird feeling your brain gets that disconnects you from the realness around you. Medicine fixes it for me.

That’s common with SZ. Pulls you into a world of your own.

For me, it began when my mother had to work and she didn’t have the same amount of time and energy for me. I got whiney thinking she didn’t love me any more and then I viewed her and the whole world differently. Like people were all just acting and not being real.

I get this everytime I’m psychotic. It doesn’t last more than 3 or 4 days, but APs and sleep help get me back to normal.

Mostly when unmedicated, sometimes while on meds.

Well these days everything is virtual so I can see where that feeling can be exacerbated.
