...See more Right now, I feel like I'm not really here, I'm not really me, these aren't my arms or hands or feet, like my head is not attached to my body, and I'm essentially a spirit floating above myself. It feels like my mind and body aren't connected and I of course identify with my mind more. It's so strange - I've been with my boyfriend for 7 years and some days I just think, who is this guy? Why is he in my apartment? Is this my apartment? How did I get here? Who am I? etc. I logically can identify all of the answers but they just don't seem real. It's scary because I can get lost in this and sort of float away mentally, and my body feels frozen and unmovable. And it's especially stressful now because this is the first time I've held any job in years (and I've done it consistently for 3 months which is a big deal!) and I'm really worried that one day I'm just not going to be able to go, for a day or for days or weeks and I'll lose my job which has been helping me to feel a little more normal. Does this resonate with anyone? Has anyone successfully overcome this feeling or found any coping mechanisms that work for you?

...See more Hi all! My name is Ania and I'm new to 7cups as of last night. I'm 24 years old and from New England. I'm really hoping that this will be a place that I can go to both distract myself from and work on any issues that I have. I'm diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and take medication for that. Also, my mom, who was my best friend, just passed away and I'm learning to deal with that. I enjoy listening to others and I'm very compassionate and empathetic so I'm looking forward to meeting other people who are struggling as well. Take care and thank you for having me!
