I lost it. I lost it all

I lost any sense of security or reality or friendship or principle. I am lost.

What about your security have you lost? Has something happened?

What are you struggling to tell if it’s real or not?

Did you lose your friends?

Thank you for your concern and support @LilyoftheValley! I feel like I’m dreaming, and everything is fake. I feel like the people around me, my family, aren’t real and I’m imagining them. I feel like I can’t do anything. How am I going to take care of my family? What if I can’t support us? I’m going to lose them. I have friends, but I’m disconnected from them. They’re texting about play dates and bbqs, but I’m over here thinking I’m dead and trying to make my head stop spinning.

@FlyingPurplePeopleMeeter You need to see your pdoc for a med adjustment. I think this is just your sz.

@FlyingPurplePeopleMeeter I agree with pianogal. It seems like a med adjustment is in order. Hopefully you can hear from your pdoc quickly after you initiate contact. You don’t have to feel this way, there is help available.

Oh dear @FlyingPurplePeopleMeeter, im sorry! What happened? Can you remember a time this happened before, where you came out alive and well eventually? What did you do back then that helped?

I hope you can call the pdoc indeed.

And have you perhaps ever learned some calming exercises? Or exercises that ground you in reality? No idea if that would help, but here are some ideas: https://www.livingwell.org.au/well-being/mental-health/grounding-exercises/

yesterday i thought that my support team from the clinic were talking to my friends about me and i asked one friend but he said no. with the kind of friend i have who lives far away but because of the connection we use to have i can trust him and believe him.
i think that resting and relaxing helps a lot to curb the symptoms which is what we all should be doing more often.
i have experienced what you were talking about @FlyingPurplePeopleMeeter and the feeling will fade away eventually when you cycle back to healthy again.

I’m so sorry you feel disconnected from it all @FlyingPurplePeopleMeeter, its an awful feeling to be so isolated, even when you are surrounded by people who care.

Please take care, and get a med adjustment for sure, I think that should help

I am also going through a hard time. You do need help from friends though. Are you sure there isn’t anyone you can call?

I’ve felt like that before. It’s really just you getting to involved with a theory. To snap out of it, at least for me, I have to look at the probability of it being true, which is pretty low. It’s like how Elon Musk believes we are all living a in a simulation. I mean they don’t call him mentally ill because he’s rich so it’s “eccentric”. The trick is to be able to think about the possibilities of it if it were true, but not actually believe it. The truth is, we don’t know. There are good people and bad people in the world, just try and distance yourself from the bad ones. People care about you, it’s not a dream.

Sorry you are going through a hard time @SunLion! What’s going on?

My husband talked with me last night and I read the Scriptures and prayed. I feel a bit better. Thank you for your kindness and support?

How can I support you? How long have you felt this way?
