I need some help with psych stuff re: depersonalization if anyone has any experience
I am vaguely familiar with it, I feel that way rather often. Do you chronic depersonalization or just more episodic?
googles
growing up when I would frequently feel like my...soul...had left my body and I had to stop and...remember...who I was. is that what this is? although it mostly went away in my 20s
(soul and remember are used as approximations cuz I can't think of better words to capture the experience)
I think so? Im not an expert by any means, but I get like that when my anxiety levels get too high.
@atomika I once wrote to my wife about my experience and coping with something that may be this? idk if it will help, but I found the email and copied the relevant bits in here. spoiled for personal and sappy.
Some of the times I've "spaced out" it was a little different. I hope you don't think I'm being ridiculous here, but the best way I can describe it is I feel like my soul has momentarily left and re-entered my body. It's a very bewildering thing, and when I was young I found it quite terrifying. It's like I briefly forgot who I was, and I have to spend a few moments recollecting my identity. When I was younger it happened much more frequently, and I eventually came up with a reliable method for coping with it. It was sort of like a mantra, "My name is -. I am X years old. My brothers are -and -."
The reason I bring all this weird stuff up, is that sometime after we started dating (I'm not sure exactly when), I added you to the list. "My name is -. I am X years old. My brothers are -and -. My girlfriend is -." But then, as I mentioned before, it started happening a lot less frequently, to the point where I can't really remember the last time it has happened. And while I don't really know the reason, (whether something has changed in my brain chemistry, or what) I think it's because, well, to quote Dory from Finding Nemo: "I look at you, and I'm home."
Thank you -. Thank you for being my home.

I guess I would describe it as situational? Basically, bad stuff has been going on and not improving for so long that I don't feel like I live in reality anymore.

And the Lord spaketh, "Doist as I sayeth, not as I doith."
There should be no defense of him from anyone. What he did was evil and reprehensible. The fact that he is a great director doesn’t obscure the fact that he robbed a child of far more than Bernie Madoff stole from his victims. What has our culture become when people can commit despicable criminal acts and yet get defended and excused because they are celebrities.— Mike Huckabee, talking about Roman Polanski

How do I wordsmith "respond to my email or suffer my infinite wrath" into a business-appropriate message?
"Any updates?"
And Cc their boss
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

Mark as high importance
Nothing like ! to spur someone into action
For a while I had an outlook rule that automatically deleted any mails marked as high.

I think that can be a natural reaction to hard times. Almost like a defense mechanism in a sense. It sounds like as your situation improves,so will that feeling. I think there are also some medications that are usd to trwat it, in case it doesn't go away.

The worst part is it apparantly removes an entire story from the house. And you said graffiti wasn't harmful.
no this is the house you live after i've used the other button to donate all of your money to marijuana legalization
Unfortunately for you, there was a button that turned all the marijuana into copies of atlas shrugged and I already pressed it.
Good point, I forgot about that. However, I just found a new magic button that tattoos your face each time I press it. This is what you look like now.
I'm very pleased that "I'm rubber, you're glue" is in effect right now. Those tattoos are actually on your butt!
but it's opposit day
so i'm rubber you're glue isn't in effect today
you might want to look in a mirror
If it's really opposite day, then you saying it isn't in effect means it IS in effect. So you, I definitely no not want to look at a curved, non-reflective surface.

I generally like a nice passive-agressive "A timely response would greatly speed implementation of this thing I'm e-mailing you about". Make it clear that whatever corporate goal or timetable is affected is entirely on their shoulders and they will be to blame if deadlines are missed.

"Hm, who's the richest guy I can think of who's in jail and didn't contribute to my campaign..."
Your "mission" and your "vision" are not making you more productive and produce way too little return for the man hours you pour into them.
