Do you ever feel completely disconnected? Like..an alien:(?

I have never felt like this. Please see a doctor and tell your parents. Extreme mood swings is a sign of bipolar disorder and these mood swings can be controlled with medicine.

WOW!! I know exactly how you feel. First off, I doubt very much if you are like...an alien. I have come to the conclusion that this is just a state that some people go through, believe it or not it will change just as quick as it came (go figure!) but it's true. I used to feel that I was enclosed in glass and I was looking out at everyone and no one could see me within this glass wall. I watched people do things - like dancing as an example and how people (most) got up from their chairs and slowly walk to the dance floor with no motion at all (like some kind of robot) and all of the sudden, hits the dance floor and starts moving and dancing their little hearts out - it's really weird, watch sometime!! You wonder how come you are the only person in the world that notices it.

Everyone goes through spells where they feel they don't belong - the family just seems weird and it feels again like you are on the outside looking in, "like a play in slow motion".

No body you are watching acts like you do, they just don't think or relate the same as you!!

Don't worry you are very normal. Just don't let it consume you and you will be fine. Just remember that you have to be you, you don't want to replicate any one else. Be true to your ideas, your own way of relating and communicating. You'll be just fine. I really think it is just a process of deciding how you want to relate, how to do want to see things, making the right decisions for you - and being true to who you are and know that that is okay, that is how it is suppose to be. Just be YOU.

Be Patient with YOU. It really is ok. Good Luck.

I always feel like i belong on another planet or something ,like i'm not supposed to be in this world ,if there were life on mars i think that would be the place i would feel most comfortable.Yes there is a name for this we are freakin crazy don't tell anyone cause the ones who have are the ones in the mental hospitals.

Yes. It's detatchment disorder, or dissacociative disorder, and is pretty common in people who have been abused, live in violent circumstances, have been raped, or otherwise traumatized, like the 9/11 survivors or what used to be called "shell shock" in war veterans with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) . It's a coping/defense mechanism and can last the rest of your life.

It sounds like you are dissociating, which is something that happens to me all of the time so I can truly sympathize. You are actually disconnected from yourself when you are in this state, so you are disconnected from your emotions and your thoughts don't even feel like they belong to you sometimes. But the emotional separation is why you feel estranged from your family.

I would recommend talking to a professional about this , as it is very disruptive and upsetting.

I sometimes feel like the world revolves around me, everyone and everything is not real, nothing is real but me. It feels lonely at times but in order to get by I just perform my daily tasks like I'm supposed to. It's never overwhelmed me though.

Good luck friend

Psychiatrist aren't that expensive, I'd go see one if I felt like that, especially before I'd take advice from anyone on here about my mental health. Good Luck and Happy New Year!!

i do i completely zone out in times so bad. i feel like i'm fake and the world isn't real, it's hard to explain. i sometimes wonder if i need pills for it or something. i have no idea what this is.

i know what you mean...like one day you wake up and you dont know where you are but you know that your in your house and you dont feel like the same person...i think it makes sense.

sounds like dissocociation to me, a symptom of anxiety and mpd to
