Depersonalization

worrierintowarrior profile image

Been suffering from this hell for almost 2 years . Wondering if God is punishing me . Looking at pictures of myself and feeling disconnected . Seeing a beautiful woman just asking the Lord please save her . Heal her already she's so hurt .

Thank you for your advice . Everyday is a spiritual battle . I cry and pray and call out to Him very often. But I've learned that He is a good God that forgives . God bless you and may He keep you strong in this anxiety battle .

Keep praying and don't listen to Satan. God is not punishing you. Just keep praying and be strong. I know how you feel. I get this feeling when I'm driving. Its okay, your struggling but if you keep strong God will reward you.

How long were you on them before you quit? I tried Zoloft and It made things worse so I stopped at 6 weeks and now I am trying something else

Yeah I was on Zoloft for a month . How long were you on for ?

I use to take meds and had a bad experience . You can start by lowering the dose of your meds until you can official get off of them. Please consult with your doctor first .

Some one who actually feels the same as me that's awesome . I know exactly how you feel. I keep being told that when the stress and anxiety lessen the other symptoms will too but it's been a year and I'm not sure how this happened. I hate it , it's kinda like you wonder are you really Alive kinda.

I can tell you from experiences that the beginning is the worst . My first year was terrible . I had a crisis of existence , asking myself all of these odd questions etc . It gradually started to get better once I would distract my mind on it because of course with having anxiety you're so obsessed with your problems and you make it worse than what it is. I'm currently having some other health problems so I believe that's what made it come back . I feel the disconnect more when I look at myself in pictures.

My second time conquering driving anxiety. A few yrs ago it was so bad I wouldn’t leave home. Mine have definitely been due to medical setbacks as well.
