Like you are not attached?

That's normal when experiencing panic. It is a normal part of an anxiety disorder, too. But the good thing is that anxiety disorders can be easily treated if you find a good, qualified therapist, especially one who practices cognitive/behavioral treatment. Have you? If who are seeing now isn't working, I'd shop around and find someone else. Are you on medication? You could talk to your therapist about that too, medication can help if you want it.

Hi Worry!

Glad to meet you. Sorry under such stressful circumstances. Anxiety and Panic disorder can very much diassociate us from the world. Kinda like being lost. Been there, done that way to many time myself. I feel lost and no where to go. What do I do? Where can I go? I is hell I know. You have to sit down when this happens and calm yourself with soothing music or something. Bring yourself back to reality. The world we live in is constantly going by us at a very fast pace. And sometimes way to much for us to keep in pace with. Slow down. Only take on as much as you feel you can handle.
My advice would be to meditate more. Take some down time for yourself. Some calm time. It really does help at those really bad times. Just make sure you are alone. Tell people not to call, unplug your phone. Do whatever it take to have peace and quiet.

Hugs and I am thinking about ya.

anxiety and panic can cause a dissociative disorder called depersonalization, which makes you feel like you are in a dream and disconnected from reality. I had it for 9 months before they figured out what it was.

antidepressants and anxiety meds got rid of it for me.
