Hi I can relate to what you're saying. During a very early session with my T I asked her if I was a real person? She gave a little chuckle - but it was a deadly serious question.

I struggle to know sometimes if I'm right to be upset/ or cross about something. "Crowded but alone" - yes,I get that.

Grounding techniques do help but you need to really work at practicing them, especially if you're doing ok so they become a new habit
