It's a feeling I usually avoid by doing something. Right now I am ready to freak out.

Hi, I'm sorry to hear that you were in an accident and that you are in pain. Sometimes derealization can accompany depression or anxiety (or both). This could have been caused by your accident, too. Many people start to feel "down" when injured and their mobility is impaired, they are in pain, etc.
I hope you feel better. Have you told your doctor about your psychological symptoms? Take care.
