Hey guys. If anyone could respond or relate please do. I need someone who kind of understands what I'm going through to have a conversation with. I seem to be having a tough time today. I cant tell if my syptoms are getting better or just constantly fluctuating. Its been 2 months for me. I'm going to try and explain myself the best that I can. So for me it feels nothing is wrong but also EVERYTHING is wrong at the same time. Like I can tell something isnt right. Like the way Im experiencing life isnt how I used to. Like I tried explaining to my friend last night actually it feels like I was placed on an exact copy of earth, everything is the same but slightly different. Like I cant fully connect to any of it. I swear I'm not delusional lol it's just how I'm feeling about all of this. It's like I can kind of remember what happened yesterday but I cant connect to any of it, like "I" didnt experience it.
I dont have multiple personalities or anything like that, if anything I still have my personality but it's just very blunted. My family hasnt noticed anything different about me, maybe just that I keep to myself and I'm a bit more quiet around them. It's so scary waking up everyday feeling like it's a new day and my brain was like swept clean while I was sleeping, but yet not being able to connect to anything when I wake up?
I'm sorry if I'm not making much sense it's really hard to describe how I'm feeling. Sometimes I even question myself if I'm even dissociated at all. But deep down in my heart and soul I know the way I'm feeling isnt right,because then I wouldnt even be questioning anything if I truly felt back in my body/mind, right? ALSO whenever I shower or I'm in a car I can tell I'm still dissociated. Like I'll question it and then as soon as I get into a car or the shower I'm like "YEP, this is still going on, that's great" Anyone have things like that?
I believe before in my other unfortunate encounters with DP/DR I mostly experienced more DR than DP. And I believe this 3rd bout is truly DP and I dont know how to go about it since I've never really experienced pure DP before. I feel like I need to have some kind of true mental break through in order to start recovering from this. I've had a lot of traumatizing stuff happen to me in my only 22 years of life and I feel like my boyfriend passing away a couple months ago is the straw that broke the camel's back for me.
I'm so sorry this post was kind of everywhere, I just started typing whatever came to mind. Just needing to vent I guess.
