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.
Derealisation, may want to see a therapist if it happens regularly.
Look at it this way, if the world wasn’t real and it was a simulation or something, it wouldn’t make any difference. Whether it’s a computer architecture or an actual universe or some other unknowable thing, we are less than a grain of sand in an unimaginably immense desert. Nothing means anything and everything is chaos, so the only meaning behind life is the one that means something to you.
