Sophhh Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Hi, Recently I feel as though I am becoming more positive, which is a good thing but have also noticed the problem that something weird keeps happening. Its hard to explain, but it basically happens at random points and it feels a bit like a panic attack and sometimes I think maybe it is one but then I don't get any other symptoms. So it happened the other day just when I was walking down the street, and I was getting a bit anxious becuz it was very busy but not majorly that bad. And then I felt almost like unreal and detached from everything around me and every noise was heightened and it felt kind of foggy (if that makes any sense ). It was so strange but I found myself panicking more as it happened becuz I was getting really faint so ended up running somewhere where I cud sit down. Then it went after I sat down for a few minutes but this happens a lot! Is this some kind of form of derealization or just a panic attack and has anyone else experienced this with OCD if it is common? Thanks all advice is appreciated xxx Link to comment
Sophhh Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 ^^^ sorry something I shud have added with this aswell is the fact that I am beginning to get really paranoid that from this I might be completely losing my mind or something. Which I know is really silly but things like this can always get worse im starting to worry excessively Link to comment
Guest Phil10 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Yes I get depersonalization with ocd it rapidly got worse and went into existance and free will worries for me though. The dp became an ocd itself. Link to comment
malina Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Hi Sophhh, I get this quite a lot! It's nothing to panic about, you're definitely not losing your mind. My therapist told me that it's basically a way of dealing with anxiety - we just start to detatch from everything. It's a really unpleasant feeling, I hate it, but it's not harmful Link to comment
