Is it normal nothing seems real?

Nothing seems real to me anymore. This happened about a few months ago. I've always had anxiety, but this seems to be getting worse, and worse. I always wonder why do we see in first person view, sometimes I don't recognize myself, and the people around me just look like illusions. It hurts to be honest. I remember when I did not feel this way. But now everything seems like a dream...

I haven't smoked weed in a few months..could that have anything to do with it? Even when I did, I smoked once a week. Not everyday.

I'm thinking I should just give up and go to a psychiatrist and take medication for this. It's just, I know how bad those pills can be.. I've done some research, and what I have sounds like something called "dissociative disorder". I keep hoping it goes away, but it seems to only get worse.. What the hell should I do? I'm really scared of taking meds...and I have huge anxiety..

    it can be a gift, like anything that feels terrifying. it takes you out of personality and identity. it's like seeing from beyond your eyes. it is scary, medication will not help, weed won't either, unfortunately. it's on the way to "enlightenment," you're "waking up"

    everything gets gone, and you see that :you: are still there, even if you are not

    good luck, are you an indigo? ;]

  • I don't think it's normal but I feel like nothings real too. Its called derealization and could be a symptom of a number of things. For me life feels like a dream or tv show most the time. Sometimes more than others though.

    It's normal. You don't have a psychological problem. Don't take meds they will mess you up.

    Maybe you're not real. Maybe you're fake.
