Hello and welcome to PC! What you're describing seems like derealization which is a form of dissociation. I experience this as well. Do you have a therapist or a diagnosis? It is common in borderline personality disorder.

Derealization. Derealization is similar to depersonalization, but it is a feeling of being detached from the external world, such as other people or things. Derealization may cause familiar things to look strange, unreal, or unfamiliar. Derealization and depersonalization often occur at the same time.

I no longer qualify for a diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder, but there will always be my borderline traits that I struggle with especially during times of great stress.
I've been working passionately as a therapist since December 2016
