I feel so detached

6 Replies

I feel so detached from life, I hate this feeling of being detached and always worrying if every ache and pain is as bad as it feels. I hate how my fiance stays up with me and is dead beat tired in the morning, because he tries to make me feel better and safe. I hate looking at things around me and wondering if ill ever feel normal again. If the objects around me will ever look how they use to. I try deep breathing, exercising, reading, drawing, music. Nothing seems to help, I feel trapped and scared that ill forever feel like this scared helpless thing. When i go to the doctors they run more and more tests but i don't feel at ease, I do for maybe an hour or so but never for a whole day. It gets so bad that sometimes i think about death and how scared i am to die. That's my main thing is death and the way i see things and how i feel so detached! Is it just me or do other people feel and see things like this. Do others fear death and over thing thier pains as well. Or am I going crazy?!

First off you aren’t gonna feel this way forever because pain does end! Things do get better I know it’s hard to see that right now but they do! You must keep going, giving up isn’t a choice. You are so strong! Remember all the bad times when you thought you couldn’t get through it? Well you did and you’re still here! I used to fear death as well but not so much anymore because I read a lot about Jesus and afterlife after we are done here and that we are gonna be so safe up with him where there’s no more tears no more sadness no more ANXIETY!

Hi Cubangirl619,

Please see the resources I list on my profile. No you are not alone, many have been down this road, on this difficult journey! But there is light at the end of the tunnel :) Start with Dr. Weekes' Enlightenment video. With what you describe, you will think she's speaking directly to you. The other resources will address they way you feel as well, and take the mystery out of what you are experiencing so you can start feeling better.

I'm so sorry you are feeling this way. Have you thought about speaking to a therapist? During my hard times it always helps when I read the Bible. Here is a scripture that comes to mind: "I sought the LORD, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears (Psalm 34:4). Praying for you. Take care

No you are not going crazy! I know exactly how you feel I have felt the same exact way! I still do sometimes fear comes to me unexpectedly.. but there is hope. When I finally decided to get help therapy and meds helped me a lot! Not 100% but better than before.. Don’t give up and don’t be scared to get help.. I know it feels so scary but you are not alone.. I also advise you to pray when ever u feel like that! God is amazing! God Bless

I know that so many of us have felt what you are feeling at one time or another. It is obvious from just this simple feed on your post. I felt most like this when my anxiety and depression was at its worst. It does help to have others confirm and encourage you to endure because it won’t last forever. I’m assuming you have shared this with your doctor and discussed your depressed feelings with them? There are so many factors that could be impacting your mental state. I pray that you will be surrounded by support and wise counsel. I agree that my greatest help comes from the Lord. I believe all of creation fears death to some extent. It is something that we haven’t experienced. But there is comfort available!
