I thought I was getting better. Since the beginning of this year, I’ve been experiencing anxiety—sometimes severe, sometimes mild. But for the past 2–3 days, I’ve been feeling suddenly disconnected from the world and my surroundings. It’s like I’m physically present, but not really there—as if I’m just a part of the environment, not truly connected to it.
I find it hard to connect with the world around me. I get confused and struggle to comprehend the people or things around me.
Because of this, I feel anxious. Even when it’s not happening, I keep thinking about it, and that thought alone makes me anxious. I can’t stop my mind from drifting back into that feeling.
I talked to the school counselor about it. She said it’s not something to worry about unless it keeps happening, and if it does, I should let her know.
But I don’t know—I’m finding it hard to focus. It’s scary and overwhelming. I just want to feel okay again, without anxiety or any mental health issue
