Yesterday was really stressful because I was Overthinking about Instrusive thoughts, work was rough and it mad it worse. My mind was so stressed out and filled with dark thoughts. I thought I was going insane. I woke up this morning, my sense of self is extremely foggy, my head feels light and my body does to. Im also emotionally disconnected a bit too. Im so scared I have lost my feelings and sense of self....
Have I lost it?
No you have not lost it although it feels like it and can be scary. I’ve had experiences like that as well.
Are you on any medication?
Not currently, stopped taking it awhile ago, tried to start taking it again, but quit after like a week cause i thought it might have been making me feel worse
The reason I ask is that I had an experience like you’re describing after I tried to take myself off Ativan and Xanax. I thought it was me, but found out later that it was the drug withdrawal. It can be delayed, even appearing days after reducing your dose.
Just something to consider.
Xanax did that?
Yes, when I tried to take myself off. I was on Xanax and Ativan. A few days after I sharply reduced my dose
I was already feeling unwell while taking these two drugs at prescribed doses, because of tolerance and interdose withdrawal. But it’s when I tried to stop taking them that the gates of hell opened. Thought I was going insane.
I take Xanex once a night to help me relax enough to sleep. I have only been on it like that for a couple weeks. Anything else I tried causes bad side effects like really tired or dizzy the next day.
That’s the only meds I take. I know you can be addicted and build up tolerance.
That’s concerning.
Hi, I had a really rough day yesterday too. No you have not lost it. I've felt that way many times. I was advised to go outside and use my senses to connect to the environment. You can tell yourself "it feels (warm/cool), I smell the bakery, I see a red bird" etc. It may help

Am i going crazy ?
Losing hope.
