Is it normal that i feel this way?

Ok, for as long as i can remember, i've had this problem where i'm not always aware of myself. It wasn't that noticiable when i was younger, but for the last two years or so, its become a lot stronger. I fear that I am simply crazy and that there is no help for me but medication and a straight-jacket. I always feel sort of clouded mentally, unless i am really stimulated. I will go days or weeks where I don't feel all "there", like I will be walking and then I suddenly realize "whoa, im walking, that is me, walking...weird" and then that'll induce a panic attack in me. When I look in the mirror, the person staring back doesn't feel like it is me anymore...I always feel very alienated from the rest of the world's population, save a few of my friends and family. I pretty much despise and don't feel like the human race. I find it really hard to sympathize with people because their problems are easily fixable if they weren't so ignorant and greedy.

    I do this too. Do you believe in past lives? Sometimes people dont feel connected to thier"new body or vehicle rather". I suggest you go to youtube, and look up Dr.Delbert blair supreme beings 1-10. Dont take meds for this! You have a gift, you are not souless! Only a few Souls are reincarnated. Be happy with it, and learn how to look deeper inside your self! i do this everyday, and at first it can seem scary. But its just the "real" you waking up. :)

    I know this. It's partly depersonalisation, which doesn't mean you have an illness, just a symptom. I went years getting this a lot.

    And it's partly common sense. Most humans suck anyway.

    well you're lucky : D i found out that it is most likely depersonalization, as i am the product of 19 years of child abuse...well...hell, she still mentally abuses me, so 21 years, and they say that a lot of people who go through trauma end up getting it. so ill eventually make it to the doctor one day and get it fixed : )

    And it doesn't last as long. Mines goes for half an hour at the most.

    I know what your talking about. It happens to me sometimes too, though it doesn't induce panick attacks and goes away if I manage to calm myself down and do breathing exercises.

    Do you mean you are having like an "outer body experience"? That could be symptom of Schizophrenia but that is very unlikely. It most likely that you are just very unique person (perhaps that is why it is difficult for you to relate to others). Are you the sort of person who "daydreams" a lot? If so, maybe you just get a little too caught up in those thoughts that you forget what is happening in the real world. That is pretty normal but if feel like the symptoms are out of your control, maybe you should talk to someone, even if it is just a friend or family member.

    Take care and good luck! :)
