Title basically. Almost like your dreaming, but awake. It’s hard to explain. Sometimes I feel like I’m just dreaming or like I’m in the Matrix or something. The feeling tends to pass, but always leaves me feeling messed up mentally for a bit. Just curious if this is somewhat common or if I should probably get help. My wife says she experiences this too. So I feel like it’s definitely not just a me thing.

    It may be nothing at all but what you describe can be seen as depersonalization/derealization which is something I suffer as part of my mental illness. It could also be something as small as not drinking enough water. Check on your mental health, check on your nutrition or sleep. What’s going on in your life’s right now, any new stresses?
