De-personalisation is a horrible thing but as u say in other threads, it's the anxiety being a horrible little creature that brings many symptoms!

Not nice though

Next time it happens and you don't feel like yourself or you feel confused, try this - hold something solid, like a tennis ball and state facts about yourself, your name, where you live, what you like... Same when you look in the mirror. You will be yourself again in minutes. This technique is called grounding and that's exactly what it does. X

I usually try to touch flat cold surfaces, for some reason the cooler the better :).

Know what you mean - last few months not felt like me in any part of my life.
Even psychologist told me last week that he can't find me at moment to help me.
New gynae medication not helping this week but head been so low for past few months just can't find me at all and completely lost. Been acting on bad thoughts never done before.
