something and it scares me so bad that I
have really bad anxiety and panic attacks
and I don’t do hardly anything cause I
feel so weird and out there I don’t know
what to do does anybody know what this is?
When I wake up I really am out of it its
like i’m not even living or something I
feel soooooo out there I don’t know what
im doing anymore I know I have anxiety and
depression but its like its something else
as well because even when im not feeling
depressed or anxiety its like I don’t
know im talking or walking it really weird
and hard to understand its like how am I
living this way I don’t feel anything
the only thing I feel is anxiety because
of it but I don’t know what it is what
could it be ive been stuck in my house for
like a year cause I feel soo weird plus I
have al these crazy ass thoughts that
aren’t me and I don’t understand I
cant look at peoples faces cause it freaks
me out I cant look at fast movements cause
that freaks me out its like my brain and

What you're feeling is a normal thing for
the brain to do when you have too much
anxiety. Your brain shuts itself down
because it can't handle the stress so you
slip into a dream state where everything
around you looks weird and like you're not
really there. It's hard to talk or
listen to people. That's a good
thing.........If your brain didn't do
that, you'd probably go insane. That's
a sign you're not insane. It's tied
into your anxiety and you have to not
think about it constantly. Wake up
everyday and think...It's here again but
i'm gonna go about the day and not worry
about it, it's just anxiety. Let your
anxiety and this dream thing do what they
want and tell them you're not afraid of
it. It'll relax your brain and let
itself heal over time. That feeling
will slowly go away if you aren't afraid
of it. You should get a book
called....Hope and help for your nerves by
Dr. Claire weekes. She talks about
what you're feeling in it and everything
to do with anxiety. It'll help you.

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man your
posts help me so much, dude me and you
must have the exact samke kind of brain
chemistry or sumthin, the whole dream
state I have that all the time. Its not
juyst when im havin an attack its allll
thyer time, ive had an mri,2 ct's , blood
tests, a 24 hour halter moniter, 5 ekgs,
and been to the doctors and hospital so
many times they say "your fine its just
your anixety" when they see me. Beilive
me man anxiety makes u feel wayyyyyyyy
more then just rapid heart beats and
sweating and those symptoms u mostly hear
about. Keep the posts comin. Another
thing, alot of times my anxietys so bad I
cant even talk or even type right, and its
hard for me to even talk 2 people without
them lookin at me like im weird, I cant
even hold a conversation anymore. I used
to have so many friends , but now I cant
do anything that I used to without thinkin
im dyin

You haven't lost reality. Your brain does
what it's doing to you in defense to
stress. Your brain knows when to shut
down without your control. Kind of the
way your heart beats without your control.
That's all it is.............You'll come
back to normal if you let your brain
relax. It isn't possible to go too far.
I lived like that for years and came back.
Don't worry about how long it takes
because it's going to take awhile. Your
brain is sensitized to shutting down to
any stress you have now so it takes time
to let it heal. Just keep telling the
feeling to go screw itself because you're
not afraid of it and tell yourself you're
tired of worrying about it. Let it do
whatever it does everyday......As long as
you're not afraid of it, your brain starts
relaxing. Just let time pass and tell
yourself you're getting better all the
time because you are.

You're both gonna be fine. Try and take
your dream state on........Make it more
intense........Tell it.............It
can't do much more. It's like facing a
bully at school........If you go find him
to beat you up everyday.....He get's
bored. Just don't be afraid of it and
you guys will be fine, man. Just let
time pass..........It takes a long time
because it's not like you just fell into
this all day feel like crap stuff either.
You'll be alright..........Trust me.
