I feel extremely foggy and I don't feel like myself at all. I feel inhuman if that makes sense. Ifeel like a stranger. Will i forget myself?

Ive felt like this before and still do sometimes. Its usually called derealization and depersonalization look it up and read about it. Its terrible and makes anxiety 100 times worse.

Mine is pretty constant

No you won't ever forget yourself. I have that feeling of fogginess which I call "brain fog"..I lose where I am in the middle of a sentence or forget what I was doing. It's due to intense feelings of anxiety, depression, PTSD, any of the above...

Hi. You seem very intuitive. I don't know. That's a good question. You're in there. I am sure of it. Maybe you're growing??

Hang in there. It will be worth it. I wish you well if that helps. Thanks.

I view myself as nothing. And it’ll only sound negative if you’ve associated nothing as a negative attribute.

I find myself with more to give as nothing as opposed to viewing myself as something :)

Let words be words, you are human. And that’s fact. Nothing can change fact.

Lots of love from me to you and everyone else too 🥰❤️
