no one awnsered my posts either...
But my gosh, were not the only people who are like this... i thought i was in a simulation at one time, i was the only person here.
Listen it will fade away after time, i dont know how the symptoms differ from me. It lasted for about 2 months for me becuase i was under so much stress working for my dad's firm, going to school. I didnt feel "here", i was put aside, sort of auto-pilot.
Well, i dont know what type of dissociation you are experiencing, derealization mainly what i experienced. Depersonilization more extreme, you feel your flouting, you yourself are not real, i did at one time felt i was really not "here" i was just watching a movie, at a Mavericks game in dallas.
I dont want to really recommend, i want to put my thought, stimulants may help to get you out of the "distorted fog", when i when i was at the climax of this, i took high doses of amphetamine (adderall), which made feel "with" reality, not drifting.
Take a hot shower when this happens, or cold, what ever, i run 3 miles usally daily, this makes it go away becuase it takes the mind off, and focus trying to keep up with the physical stress.
if you need some more advice, email me wcarol345@aol.com (temporary address for connection problems)
Stay intact.
