nervous disoriantation and sometimes uncontrolable daydreams

as it says nervous disoriantation...when i get nervous(mostly social events) i get disorianted and sometimes i go into a daydream where my facial expressions change and i dont know about it...only untill icome out of this daydream ill know my expressions and when i look around ppl will staring at me so odd

is this anxiety or something else please help me out

is this anxiety that i feel?

It sounds like anxiety, but it also sounds like your dissascoating.
Do you lose all grip on reality?

yes i do lose grip on reality i get so into the daydream that i change facial expressions and mouth out words sometimes when i do that i snap out of it and look around to see if anyone saw me and the ppl that saw me have the most messed up look they can give an odd person. srry took so long new members only alowd to make 5 posts first day...i cant wait so i made this lol if u want ill confirm it on cpljacksparrow in 24hrs.

hmm, must be a new rule, I don't rember a five post limit when I joined.
It definatly sounds more like a dissocasation issue than anxiety although anxiety could be a trigger for it. You can pm me if you would like to.

Do you rember where you are or is there any memory lose from the daydreams?

6posts to pm and only 5posts are alowd in first 24hrs of membership. like where i was when i was daydreaming or where i was in my daydream? i dont remember much of my daydreams mostly situations...of stuff...quite random i suppose

Like where you are when you daydream, do come out of the daydream disoriented and confused and forget where you are?

i usualy dont daydream long enough to forget where i am or where im goin and when i come out of it im not disoriented or confused. just a daydream where i cant choose to go into or how long it lasts

I would think it was some sort of dissacosation, if you can't control it and I've never heard of someone having an issue like this with anxiety.
I myself have issues with dissacosating, or removing myself from a triggering or nervous situaion, but not like this, I just go outside myself and remove myself from my emotions like I'm floating.

Do you see a T? It sounds like you may want to talk to your T about this if your seeing one. Is there something that triggers this, like a certain situation or place?

Feel free to pm me any time you want, I'm always here to listen to others and give support.

im not seeing a T there isnt a T in town...or prob in 400miles from here. i get nervous around people not any particular people just people. i think omg ther lookin at me, they think im an odd person and thats when i get disoriented like if im walkin ill stumble...this one time in school i acually triped and a cop acually stoped me and made me do a breathalizer

Could you talk to your medical docotor? Most medical doctors can give a refferal to a T or help with anxiety issues.
I hope this get better for you, you may want to look up some grounding techniques to help when you get like this, One I use alot is counting or focusing on colors to help. There are a list of grounding techniques some where on this site, I can't rember where they are I think it is in the PTSD forum, most of those are targeted towards grounding from flashbacks, but they help with anxiety as well.

Lots of hugs

Yes, they are on the very top of the PTSD forum, on this site.

Grounding Techniques.

Very interesting comments, between sparrows.

I hope you also speak to your Md. about this problem, if you find it will be hard to explain, print out this page you wrote and give it to him to read.

Best of luck to you - and maybe a PhD. or SW will show up in your life very soon to help with your difficulties.

peace and comfort,

Nightbird I never noticed that both my user name and cpl's both contain sparrow. Sharp eye there, I notice it now, makes me smile the irony of it.

How are you feeling today cpljacksparrow?

Sometimes the same thing happens to me, but i like to think that is just an hyperactive imagination. And is like some unconscious technique to avoid some things, or just to entertain ourselves during akward moments.

Hi Group,
I have kind of same problem , people around me always complain that i am not mentally present. I am always in my own thoughts. My wife usually complains that i am not paying any attention. At work i get get easily distracted.

For last six month i am taking ADD medicines, and it helped a lot. I am also taking CELEXA for GAD sysmptoms. Your case could be same. Ask your Doc about ADD and Anxiety symptoms.
