I feel like im not real

I look at my fingers and tell myself that im right here but I don't feel real so I have to convince myself that I exist.

Does anyone understand ?

Sounds a bit like depersonalisation syndrome.

I get it quite often.

@Quizzical have you ever spoken with a professional about it, is there something that can be done?

@SW-User I confess that I haven't. It just comes and goes and no longer really bothers me. If it's causing someone distress though I'd suggest they saw a healthcare professional about it.

Yes I'm feeling like that today.. I'm going to have a vodka to numb myself further

Yes...You're in an existential mode right now

It's a passing phase that may happen again. You exist.
