I have been off anti-depressant medication for three months now and have recently started to have some weird symptoms. Should I book myself into the funny farm ( no offence) or try and persist.

1. Cant feel my body. ( Try driving and feeling like this :)
2. Feel as if I only have a pair of eyes and nothing else.
3. Feel as If im a dead man walking. (Feel really light)
4. My heart does'nt beat fast when I panic.
4. Getting really confused. ( my feelings re the world and how I feel change every 10 mins)
5. Cant hold a conversation as my head feels empty.
6. Self observing e.g looking at my legs when Im sitting down
and they dont feel part of me. I have to stand up to convince myself that they are my legs.

Another thing I do is constantly look in the mirror and think " who the fcuk are you? That frightens the shit out of me.

Has anybody else felt like this and managed to stay off medication?, or have you had to return to the medication?

This is like playing Tennis :) Im currently having home visits on a weekly basis from the Community Psychiatric Nurse as I am slightly Agrophobic at the moment. Im not finding him very good though. I printed of the derealization symptoms that are descriped on the opening page of this site and handed it to him to read. Explaining this was how I was feeling to a tee. He said " This is how you feel when you Hyperventilate, I bet thats what's happening".
