university girl,
The way I understand the word "zombie", is a person who has been brought back from the dead. His mind is a pulp, so his body isn't in what we say "full control".
I think that it is a combination: a state of the body and the mind.
Body:
Tired but still able to move and do things. Tirement bothers you, but does not effect (essentially) you performance. Your perfomance is been effected by your mood "I am tired". In other words, the relation between your performance and your body tirement is inderct
Mind:
Intentions (an intention is behind every thought and body-movement) are not clear, but thoughts and body-movement keeps going. The person becomes an observer of him/herself.
"my hands are not mine"
"i am not controling my body"
"i feel like a robot"
"i am not here"
Scattered,
I have "borrowed" your description for another post of mine. I hope you don't mind
Lilymoonchild,
We need descriptions of descriptions because the nature of this illness. Since it is the perception that gets injuried, it is hard describing. It's like someone is asking you to tell him what you see when you don't have eyes.
