I had the oddest sensation, so odd. For a moment, while I was walking outside in the cold, blowing wind, I felt...like myself. It was fleeting.

I was a little stunned. It has been so long, I’ve been anxious for so long, that I haven’t felt like myself, like I have no identity. I can’t feel myself.

I just said my first and last name, my maiden name, to myself, as the feeling of myself slipped away. As I entered the building to go back to my desk and anxiety-provoking job, the feeling was gone.
