justhere Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Hi, I would just like to list my symptoms of what I think is dp and some others No sense of self-no spontaneous sense of “me-ness” No internal monologue-blank mind No feeling of time passing or at the very least diminished Random memories dreams and childhood memories come unbidden-I can also just “think them” I can talk about my life but it feels like I am just reading. No felt sense of chronology. Interests and opinions similar to above Sometimes new places, people will spontaneously conjure memories of similar areas/people. I’ve been walking and see a stranger and will mistake them for a second with someone I met-sometimes an aquaintance from way in the past Can make eyes wider. Top lids go higher than normal. Increased pareidolia High def colors-especially outdoors Certain objects seem to have a kind of surreal presence. Maybe related to pareidolia I used to get the heightened pareidolia upon waking sometimes. Like if I awake to a pile of clothes etc. I’ve also woken up to that blankness. I panic and the unreality feeling starts. My whole life feels fake. It usually goes away in minutes. yet this where I am now. I woke to it and it’s like I’m stuck there. Upon drifting my inner voice would sometimes splinter into nonsense chattering. Sometimes I’d come to with a feeling of where was I? This was always benign. Honestly I am not sure if I can live like this indefinitely. I am afraid I’ve accidentally ruined my mind for good. on that happy note thanks for reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
