Where is my mind?

I have felt really detached for days. It scares me because sometimes I feel like that's what it must be like right before you die. Halfway between life and death. And I don't want to be there.

It's like my senses are foreign and I'm floating behind trying to connect. It's all forced.

I'm tired.

This is so weird. I know it'll pass. Hopefully. Meanwhile I have to pretend like things are like they were ...

does this drive anyone else crazy? r/o

I just now made a post about that very thing in another forum!
I don't even like to let anybody drive my truck, no matter how good a driver they are.
When my husband comes in my cabin and picks stuff up like What's this, ect, I really have to bite my tongue that I don't snap at him to leave it be.
We have separate abodes, although I do have to go in his ...

... I actually thought I was alright....

These questions won't go away. The one that still hurts is "what if".

I almost thought I was over this stuff...

Constantly envious (and depressed as a result)

Hmmmm, I don't think that this is a mental disorder as such so I decided to put it here, but I think it's a consequence of my low self-esteem. I'm constantly envious (NOT jealous--never have been in a relationship) of anything and everything and anyone and everyone. I'm envious of people who "appear" (note--appear, because I never actually know anything about them) to have lots of friends, work fantastic jobs and just have great lives ...

Scared to talk to doctors...

Its weird. The things I've said here, I wouldn't mind talking to a therapist, but I was talking to a normal doctor when I was taken to the ER about the cuts on my arm, I didn't want to no, I REFUSED, to talk.

I don't want to go to the psych ward, invol, unable to leave. I'm so scared I don't lie but I don't talk I need someone I know I need help ...

Tales of a hypochondriac...anyone else out there?

I am desperate need of relief of my hypochondria. If it is not one thing, it is another. The zit on my forehead I interpreted to be a brain tumour, as are my occasional lapses of memory and any headache I may suffer. Eyestrain is the beginning stages of blindness. Stomach aches are the development of ovarian cancer. A pain in my hand signifies that it may soon be amputated. Probably worst of all is ...
