I have wrote here a couple times about derealization i get from anxiety , fatigue and just in general , eventhough im feeling ok i get anxious sometimes because my worst symptom is that i usually feel numb , and when i feel numb i can move fine but it feels weird like im not controlling my body, if that makes sense,,its scary and has caused me to develop some anxiety because of it.. current im a bit anxious about it because i tend to get irrational fears about losing my ability to move , or like getting sort of like paralyzed , i know its extremely silly and stupid but i feel lile that , and whenever i move a muscle i just get heart palpitations because i feel like im not in control of my body sometimes
So i need tips to cope when i get this symptom because i learned that many people here suffered derealization due to anxiety or depression and was hoping to get feedback on your experiences and what helped and what didn't
And also ways to cope with irrational thoughts because i feel crazy sometimes
Like i can't believe i actually think i might suddenly lose my ability to move .. like thats just impossible but sense i feel numb i started thinking what if something is wrong..other than my health anxiety that made me go its ALS or MS ..i also thought that could happen for no reason which is impossible and still i do ,, i try to accept all my thoughts and calm down but sometimes i feel not in control of my thoughts too ..
I thought i would share this because im not experienced to know what to do like i was with anxiety itself so i appreciate any help
