·I have this upsetting problem:
Throughout the day things appear to slightly change, especially my perception of people. For example, I could wake up one morning and see my neighboor, who I've known for some time, and for no reason perceive him as a total genius, an ugly person can be beautiful, a fat man, skinny. These perceptual shifts are related to mood, but I'm on a mood stabalizer, and the shifts don't quite correlate. The way I see myself changes all the time as well. I NEVER look the same in the mirror.
Is this simply an aspect of derealization? Or are these changes due to another problem?
Do these strange, scary, changes happen to you guys?
Do you even understand what I'm talking about?

This used to happen to me alot when I did drugs also. It may have something to do with the creative part of the brain. If it gets bothersome, talk to your doc. Hang in there.
