Sunlight causing derealization! Has ANYONE recovered from this?

Looking for help from anyone fully recovered or at least recovered from this symptom. Sunlight causes a dreamlike sensation and the bright sky just seems like a fake backdrop. I can't stop noticing it and it fuels the whole anxiety cycle.

How did you recover from this?

Also at night if the sky is bright or the twilight sunset. My eyes will pick it up between the trees or behind buildings ... It just seems off... only if the sky is really dark does it seem like I can connect to it.
Artmuzz thank you for your comment. So this symptom eventually did go away as you just paid less attention to it? Eventually you looked outside or at the sky and u felt connected again? Did u notice it reducing or did you have to forget about it for it to go away?

And Eddy thank you as well and I'd like to ask you the exact same question. Thanks guys!!!
I appreciate the reply’s guys, I guess the tough part to get is why my anxiety can feel really low or completely gone yet once I step outside that sun if it’s bright is still causing a dreamlike environment and the sky looks shimmery and fake... hard not to feel trapped in this when you feel normal or close to normal when the lights aren’t messing with me... did a bright night sky like on a full moon create the same detached feeling? It’s like everything in front of me seems real like my house or trees but the sky behind it all seems like a fake backdrop... did anyone else have this???

Bright ass dream world... Also did a bright night sky like during on a full moon create the same detached feeling?
