Hey, I’m pretty alone out here. Over the span of about two years I’ve become more and more detached from reality. I don’t know how else to say it, so much so my whole perspective has become “cropped” if that makes sense. I constantly feel out of body, like my thoughts aren’t mine and I’m viewing myself outside like a ghost. It makes things hard to enjoy. Every texture has started to feel the same, and every sensation has become mashed together. My whole life I’ve been helping others, and now I just spout the same things over and over again. life seems like one big lie, hours feel like 15 minutes and minutes feel like 15 seconds. I don’t know how to overcome this disgusting feeling, I want to be able to look in the mirror again and recognize the reflection as me rather than some ugly imposter. Please help. Anything will help.

life is always such a tricky concept, and being detached from reality is so scary. but i know that you can do it, that you can over come this feeling. while i cannot offer too much, i suggest doing new things. maybe one day, find some flowers and just study them. look at the petals, how the light hits them, how they feel under your fingers. realize that it is life and it is precious. realize that you are also life. you are living, breathing and thinking, its amazing that you are existing. it may not feel like it, i know, but you are amazing and you are doing so much by just getting up.
take some time for yourself, look up at the sky, watch the clouds, feel grass underneath your body. do not feel like you have to be okay right now. you don't have to instantly be okay. with every rainy day you learn to appreciate the sun more. so with every bad day, you learn to appreciate the good ones. when you look in the mirror, you'll see a human being, and its beautiful and its worth so much. you'll realize that you are that human. that you are beautiful, you are precious, and you are worth so much. you are so strong and you are so amazing. i know you can overcome this, i truly know you can.
here's an exercise that i like. lay down and just breathe. breathe at your own pace. with every breath in realize that you are a human being. you are full of love, of life and of energy. when you breathe out, let go of your worries. in again and out, knowing that you are living and you are full of so much potential, so much light.
remember, you don't have to force yourself to be okay now. you don't have to be okay tomorrow. there isn't a due date or a race to finish. you'll be okay one day, and that one day is worth living for.
thank you for letting me listen to you and help you, even in just a small amount. you can repay me but just being yourself and living another day. i promise, you'll be okay no matter how hard it gets. i love you dearly. take care of yourself my little bird.
love, crow.
