This is nearly impossible to describe, but it's become a problem recently:
Lately I've felt a great distance from myself, as though I'm not entirely here (...my brain is tripping). I don't notice it much until I'm away from home. I live alone apart from my cat. When I'm speaking with someone and I have this feeling, I feel as though I shouldn't be talking to them because I can't focus on anything. Part of me is floating, suspended. When I mention this to someone while I'm having an active conversation, he/she seems startled... so I must be acting normally. From my perspective, nothing is normal. I research psychological medication thoroughly and often (including my own) and I haven't found any link to this strange feeling. I've also received some helpful input on various side effects thanks to this forum. :]
I feel disconnected... as if I'm watching characters on a stage as opposed to my reality. Nothing is tangible. Even now, as I sit alone, the glow of the light above me is overwhelming. The feeling frightened me when it first began, but it no longer makes me anxious. There isn't anything that I can do to fight it off or run from it.
...So, any takes? Is it time for a hospital visit (a more frightening thought than what I'm experiencing)?
