I hate feeling like a stranger in my own body :/

@Reject just feeling uncomfortable with my body and my thoughts, basically
my whole personality I guess. To the point where I feel myself dissociating. Most of it’s probably a biproduct of anxiety though

@Effloresce Aww. Well I say you shouldn't dissociate from yourself. You should love yourself!! 🤗 Yourself is the most reliable person you'll ever have, even with anxiety.

@Effloresce And then you freak out and starts thinking of certain things because you feel dissociated from yourself? It also happens to me when I'm having too much anxiety. My brain imagines a lot of stuff while I'm anxious.

@SW-User yeah it does feel like that! Except for me instead of imagining a bunch of different scenarios, I usually just feel really spaced out and out of it for a long time. It’s weird

@Effloresce It feels a bit like some sort of zen mode and silent panic at the same time. Good thing it doesn't last for a long time for me. I try to quickly snap out of it.

@MartinTheFirst basically my anxiety makes me uncomfortable with every aspect of who I am to the point where I feel like I don’t recognize myself anymore.

@Effloresce you're being too vague, what exactly is the issue here?

@MartinTheFirst it’s hard to describe the feeling in all honesty. I guess the issue is my mental health has gotten so bad to the point where I don’t recognize myself anymore. Like comparing myself to how I was before shit hit the fan makes me realize how much I’ve changed and how much I’m uncomfortable with who I am atm
