has anyone ever find through a period in life where everything in life wad throwing you off mentally, basically changing who you are to the point that now your a completely different person mentally. Like before you were perceptive , business savvy skilled and witty and now your just dull like the brain you've had all your life wasn't really the brain you had and definitely isn't the brain you hand now ? It's like I'm somebody i don't know to the point that going to a phsycyatrist or physcologist basically useless cause ad i wouldn't be able to tell them what somebody else is thinking unless of coarse they tell or show me , I can't tell them what i thinking cause it's like my head attached to my body but what's on my head isn't anything or anyone that I know ? Obviously this isn't normal, but had anyone ever gone through this before and actually found themselves again ? I still working same business as always it's a family my families wholesale coffee business yet it's like i not the owner to be and owners son but I just a guy that works for them all of a sudden and so everything I use to think , I no longer think so I'm stuck cause my way of thinking is money money money how to make it always and I'm usually super connected to life and people in life and myself above all but now I'm not so much that I feel undoing this with the right help impossible cause I can't even state clearly what going through my head or what i see in life that seem wrong or off to me
i basically just a mess

    Sounds like a chemical imbalance to me. I'd get myself to a doctor and have some tests done. It could be a simple fix.

    It depends. How old are you? Have you recently undergone any big changes? Have you been under a lot of stress lately? I don't think it would be normal if it happened for no reason.

      I'm 35 and life changed about 4 years ago in a way that everything I saw was throwing me off mentally , maybe it was anxiety but I didn't go to doctors right away and now I'm in treatment but I still don't feel like me nor can I explain what i thinking , all i can say is I off and I have no desires visions or direction aside from wanting to be my old self again, and yes I been under extreme stress for the past 13 years the past 5 being the worst Everytime i want to do something it doesn't work out no matter how simple but then other people do it like somebody trying to throw In my face hahaha look we even make your younger brother do what we saw you trying to do etc etc so now I left behind and all messed up

        I feel ya. I'm only 24 but have been feeling very similar lately. I've been feeling like everything is out of reach and difficult and I might as well just go ahead and give up. I have a to-do list that is a mile long and all I want is to be like I used to be and handle things like I used to. I would hate to feel like this for more than a year. We could drown in our own self-pity if we let ourselves, and that is all that can hold you back. You.

        The truth is you can't go back to who you used to be. The circumstances have changed and the old you is dead. You have to evolve. This is a dreadfully painful process. I was meditating one day and just began to literally feel sick from all the negativity that was stored within me, like the devil was dragging me to hell. It feels impossible to get out, but it's not. You have to believe in yourself and you need positive reassurance, mostly from yourself. When you feel down fight the negative thoughts with positive affirmations. It truly is a battle, but you're strong enough, right?

        When you get sucked into a moment of hopelessness just meditate, pray, whatever you need to do until you feel hopeful again. You'll probably get a few ideas of what you need to do when you make yourself feel a little better. Write them down. Remind yourself that you do have goals, that you do want more than this. Don't go down this deep, dark hole any further. Write out your feelings, smile at people, help people if you are able, play with kids (they have a wonderful way of looking at the world and will remind you what life is truly about). Do whatever you need to do to rediscover your worth, but just remember you can't go back to the past. How can you move forward if you keep looking back? Let go of things you cannot control and, most of all, DON'T WORRY! "Worrying is like praying for what you don't want." I wish you the best :)

    I have a similar problem when I study. I can be like a master at my subject for one semester and the next I was so distracted... I have to focus harder and even shift around my furniture to get my perspective straight. You may just be feeling a bit down and once you find a way to refresh yourself, even inspire you in your field I think this phase could pass. Maybe you should go for a course or business seminar, even confer with others to up your game. It could also just be that there is a low demand...
