It could be that you're anxious and just really on edge, however, I gotta say, from my non-doctor totally amateur psych point of view, you should watch yourself and make sure you aren't developing a mild form of depersonalization disorder. I don't know enough to say whether this sounds like you, but here are the symptoms:

Symptoms of Depersonalization Disorder

The core symptom of depersonalization disorder is the subjective experience of unreality, and as such there are no clinical signs. Common descriptions are: watching oneself from a distance; out-of-body experiences; a sense of just going through the motions; feeling as though one is in a dream or movie; not feeling in control of one's speech or physical movements; and feeling detached from one's own thoughts or emotions.[4] Individuals with the disorder commonly describe a feeling as though time is 'passing' them by and they are not in the notion of the present. These experiences which strike at the core of a person's identity and consciousness may cause a person to feel uneasy or anxious.

Some of the more common factors that exacerbate dissociative symptoms are negative stimuli, stress, subjective threatening social interaction, and unfamiliar environments. Factors that tend to diminish symptoms are comforting interpersonal interactions, intense physical or emotional stimulation, and relaxation.[5] Factors identified as relieving symptom severity such as diet, exercise, alcohol and fatigue, are listed by others as worsening symptoms.[6]

Fears of going crazy, brain damage, and losing control are common complaints. Individuals report occupational impairments as they feel they are working below their ability, and interpersonal troubles since they have an emotional disconnection from those they care about. Neuropsychological testing has shown deficits in attention, short-term memory and spatial-temporal reasoning.[7] Depersonalization disorder is associated with cognitive disruptions in early perceptual and attentional processes.[8]


I hope you don't have it, although, mild depersonalization is normal. Good luck.

I bet you have a lot on your plate. When your stressed that is exactly what happens. You can stress yourself out just lying on the couch. We all have moments like that. Every single person. It is sort of our mind and body's way of saying slow down. Take care of me, I need a rest. When you have anxiety, we often feel disorganized, confused, hard to concentrate and we even can get depressed because we feel guilty about not being able to things like we use to, This is an exercise that helps you feel grounded. And when you feel grounded you can concentrate better. So please try it. Sit down in a comfortable chair. Let your arms just lay relaxed at your sided. TAke a deep cleansing breath and close your eyes. Imagine that you are an oak tree. The biggest oak tree that you can imagione. You know the kind that rips up sidewalks. Now imagine that you are the oak tree. You are big and mighty feel the strength. You arms are the brances and they are thick, big and extend the whole lot. Now imagine that your body is the trunk and it is thick and sturdy, amazingly majestic. You feel stong and sturdy. Go on and imagine that your feet and legs are the roots and they keep growing and extending all over the earth-far, wide, deep. watch the roots aws they go around boulders, as they rip up the side walk. Those roots go so deep into the eart. You feel confident and grounded. ou can handle any storm that comes your wayh. You feel calm and relaxed because you are strong and grounded.

Hope it helps.

Occasionally I also have symptoms of Depersonalization Disorder. It is weird but temporary. Thank you omgitsk8 for sharing this information.

Ugh. I know that feeling. It sucks, but it goes away. You're okay. Try to relax as much as you can.
