If you have to see blood maybe you can prick yourself with a needle? That's less invasive than the alternative. I still don't like it though.
Just a few ideas. I know many here have good ideas of how to do reality checks.

I'm trying to let it pass. I feel almost plastic but that's okay. I do want
but there's no safe way. I'm going to continue talking here. I'm hoping this goes away fast. I'm interacting just fine but it's like I'm a fake me. I know that's not true. I can hear my voice but it doesn't sound like it's coming from me. Oh well it will pass. I will try screaming when I can.
