Not Yourself....But Someone Else...

ok...yes i know....it is another obsessing over a scary thought again but i just need to get it down...

over the last week my dp/dr has been real nasty...

my main problem is that i do not only not feel like myself...but i feel like someone else...

it is really weird...when i look in the mirror it really does feel like i am looking at someone else and not me at all...

as if i really am someone else inside another persons body...

i am also getting really nasty pains in my arms, hands, feet and legs a lot and the numbeness is the worst it has been so far...

if anyone can relate to any of this feel free to post you thoughts.

many thanks for reading :)

hey soph, i've had this weird feeling for a while, like a presence follows me round or takes over, yet the insight remains intact (thank god)

You know when u say numbness??? do u get ne dizzy spells, balance probs etc??? could be interelated..... not sure, when i feel odd or have a weird spell, i get tingling, numbness etc...

Boy does that the mirror thing suck ass!!!!!! dammit!!!! It's like u wanna see u but u see n feel different/detached.

take care, xxxx
yeah i feel dizzy and off balance all the time now...i used t only get it occationally...but now i am like it all the time...i actually feels like someone is pushing my head and body around...

my hands and feet are continuously cold....so my circulation is not too good...i try doing as much exercise as i can but as i feel very dizzy and detached it is very awkward!

yeah the mirror is the hardest part...

looking at myself as if it is the first time i have ever seen myself...

thank you for reading and for your reply, very much appreciated :)
