Hi boo251
I know how uncomfortable that unreal/spacy feeling can be. I used to feel that way all the time too. It went away for me when I started to face things I was afraid of. I learned that it was just my way of getting myself sick so that i had an excuse not to face and deal with changes i needed to make in my life. the important thing to remember is that "unreal" feeling your experiencing now CANNOT hurt you. its really just your bodies way of protecting itself. The thoughts you are telling yourself and probably over and over is that there is some reason to be afraid of something in your life. Fear is false evidence apearing real. I really like that definition. Because its true. Ask yourself what in your life are you avoiding? I recomend when you do figure out what it is you are avoiding to be compasionate with yourself and slowly go about dealing with it. I hope these words helped. I know you will feel better soon.

Hi Boo,
Yes I to experince that everyday as well. I hate it. I can be drving down the road in my car, and feel like I am in a totally different world then everyone else. I can be talking to someone face to face and be looking at that person, like "is this person really standing in front of me". It's a tough one to explain. Now when I take my medication, I dont get that way all the time, but for the most part I do. I think I hate that more then anything. How long have u been doing the program? I just started the other day. Take care...Tanya
