The voice in my head is myself, but it's like myself gone haywire and I feel myself talking to myself or figuring myself out all the time even when I am trying to engage in external activities. So that I am in my head 24/7 and that causes the feeling of a disconnection from the rest of the world. I feel like I am in such a fog because of this and I feel like there is no escape, I can't be content with myself as I was in the past and I have completely forgotten how to be my former self. I even find myself trying to convince me that that former self never existence, but I know it has because I never felt the way I do now.
my treatment providers call the problem .....depersonalization .....when I am not connected to my body/thoughts, ...(my dissociative disorders symptoms)

my treatment providers call the problem.......obsessing....intrusive thoughts.......hypersensitive ....manic ....when I am too connected, too tuned in, too focused on my thoughts. (my bipolar/OCD/ depression/PTSD symptoms)

suggestion talk with your treatment providers they will be able to tell you what your problem is called and which symptoms goes with what disorders that you may have.
Thanks for this!
