Hi mldk,  the answer is "yes" to all that you are feeling.  It's anxiety at it's finest.

You have come to a  good forum to get the support and comfort you need.  Anything you need to know just ask.  There is always someone hear to listen and to care.  xx

Yes this is depersonalization/ derealization look it up it's very common with anxiety and probably one of the most disturbing symptoms. Know that it is in no way dangerous just very unsettling the best way to overcome it is treating your anxiety number one and not giving it any attention don't be afraid of it the more you focus on it the worse it will get. Have a read of the article in the link below its long but very helpful

Hey mate I know exactly how you feel, anxiety symptoms can be so unbelievable sometimes. You are definitely not alone and have come to a great place for some reassurance that your not crazy. Keep reading these pages and hoping all settles down soon. Jase.

Its all the weird ways Anxiety affects are body...I know its the strangest thing..my anxiety has been with me for 8 years and it always makes me feel weird like Im about to die..people experience it in different ways than others..some people barely have symptoms where as otjers like you and I feel it all over our bodies..and I'll tell you right now. With as many anxiety attacks I've had and numerous trips to the hospital...if you freaked out over the symptoms your feeling you will throw yourself right into a panic attack which is even worse than just anxiety...because your body is trying to defend itself..its called the fight or flight syndrome and your body starts feeling weird all over ...I've read numerous books on Anxiety..and the best thing you can do is to concentrate on your breathing...breath in through your nose for count of 4 and out through your nose count of 4..just deep slow breaths calms your heart down and relaxes you. The psychiatrist would tell you..Anxiety symptoms are Uncomfortable but not dangerous and to try and quickly distract your mind and the way you're thinking to something else ..something happy...like they say..go to your happy place..Beach maybe..somewhere you would like to be that makes you happy...and it will stop the Anxiety. Also..if you start tp feel symptoms coming in...immediately start thinking of something different and try not to concentrate on the way you are feeling...they also say to encourage the feelings to come and it wil stop it. I hope this helps.. ..Stay Strong!
