I feel like someone else is controlling me!

It's hard to explain, but I feel like someone else is controlling my body and my actions... I feel like I'm "floating outside of my body", I feel like I'm going crazy... I'm so scared! I feel like I'm not in control of my own life, like I'm watching myself from outside of my body... Nothing feels real, everything feels like a dream... I've been stressed out lately, I've been depressed, and I've had a lot of anxiety, it has happened a lot of things lately... I can't think clearly, I can't focus on anything... It feels like I'm dead inside... I've experienced this before, but it was a long time ago... Am I going crazy? I'm pretty sure I'm going crazy! I don't know what to do! I just want to cry, but I can't feel anything, so I can't cry...

Hello. What you say sounds like you may be dissociating. You know, like you're "floating out of your body". When you say someone's taking control of your body... Have you heard about DID and similar things?

I'm far from being an expert about that, I just made a connection between what you feel and dissociation.

Anyway, I don't think you're crazy. All you need is to understand what's happening to you.
