Feeling like I have no face


Recommended Posts

Ever since my dissociation got 10 times worse I feel like I have no face, and when I move my arms around I cannot sense any sort of connection to them at all!! Can anyone offer me some hope or what to do about this plz :( my head feels totally empty & I honestly feel like there is some sort of blockage going on..my head feels blocked. this is so scary and bizarre not sure I can cope for too much longer :(

I know, I have the same. Even after HPPD/DP/DR. I think my consciousness has been expanded in a way. I feel in my body though so I don´t know why I got this still. Maybe I lost my "mask". It does´nt bother me anymore since all the other symptoms have gone. Let´s say I got a widescreen outlook on reality now *lol*.

I don't feel physical anxiety or panic but I do feel distressed about this symptom. I would rally like to hear from someone who has tried a kappa antagonist. I have the opportunity to do so next week but I'm scared shitless at the same time ...supposedly it's anti dissociative

I will get benzos tomorrow when I see my psychiatrist

If it makes you feel any better, my bad trip was mainly characterized by complete numbness in my face and limbs.  For months afterwards it would feel like my hands or face were numb and "melted" into whatever I touched.  Like if I put my hands in my pockets, it felt like my hands were being bound with my jacket or my face to the pillow etc...  This symptom is now 100% gone.  It took about six or seven months.  Like everything else, the more I worried about it the worse it got, so I just tried not to think about it.  Easier said than done, I know, but give it time.

As stated directly above me, I had terrible experiences putting my hands in my pockets. It felt like I was putting them into an abyss of nothing and I couldn't figure out where I was putting them. It's impossible to explain but I'm sure you guys understand.

My hands felt numb, or weak, or as if they didn't exist.

THIS ALL WENT AWAY AFTER A MONTH OR TWO.

I've had HPPD for 3 months now, and all the weird out of body and DP symptoms have vanished.

I no longer feel like I'm about to float away and I no longer feel absurd body feelings, or any of that weird sort. =)
