Hello i'm 17 years old Im a very active person that plays football and goes to the gym. also have a daughter and recently got out of a relationship.. and it sucks.. I been feeling like im not here and When I go to sleep I just think ok whats going happen next when i pass away do i continue or is it just a blank image.. i can't get this out of my mind. like everything . While im in school I just blank out and start thinking and everything around me feels like im in a dream.. and I get lightheaded. when I start going to the gym i get the same way but I can still do everything.. but I just don't feel like im doing it.. .... I pinch my self to make sure I'm still here but still that doesn't help me.. but latly i just discovered when I cry it kinda helps me come to reality then it comes back again.. Is it just all in my mind?? cause i remember having this when i was a child I felt like i wasn't here.. and all this.. it just sucks.. I dont wanna keep living like this anymore...

Hello kamlley,
what you described definitely does sound like a depersonalization and to some extent you're also experiencing derealization (that's when things around you seem different, like you said - it's as if you're in a dream). But, both of these are just the symptoms of some underlying condition. It can be caused by certain drugs, mostly hallucinogens, but depersonalization and derealization are symptoms that definitely require further psychological assessment. That's why I'd recommend you seeing a counselor, psychologist or just simply talking to your physician and see which condition is making you feel this way. There are treatments that will help you get back to feeling like yourself, but the first and the hardest step is finding help from the professionals.
Wish you all the best,
Nicole
