Hi.

Do you know if the feeling is caused by depression? For example, sometimes if I'm in a mall or other such crowd, I feel like I'm watching a movie but the actors can't see me. If it is secondary to depression, then I would think that once the depression was under the control, the feelings would pass. Let me ask you a few questions to make what you are feeling more clear so that if its not due to depression, others with a similar problem can answer you.

Are you currently on any medication? The side effects of some medications can cause this. So can abruptly stopping some medications.

Is this feeling there all the time or is it intermitant?

Are you aware of what is real and what is not, or do you feel like you are having hallucinations?

I'm sorry I couldn't be more help.
