I feel like I'm never awake

I have this constant feeling that I'm not really awake. It’s like my body is doing all the work for me and my soul (?) is just trapped inside. Time just goes so fast and I feel like I'm living in fast-forward. I think it’s been about a month since Ive started to feel this way. I know I’ve changed from who I used to be and I can’t figure out how to bring myself back, I can't even remember how I used to be. I don’t know what I’m doing most the time and it’s just like I’m living someone else’s life. Sometimes I have this brief feeling of ‘waking up’, and in those moments I feel like I’m seeing things through my own eyes again but it fades after a while. Like my soul is entering and leaving my body? Not literally, I just feel that way.
The only times I feel truly awake and alive is during my late-night panic attacks, and during those the world gets so.. utterly real that I can’t take it and I just panic more. Even those don’t happen as often anymore, things that would have made me panic and break down don’t seem to affect me as much as they would have before the feeling started. I just feel like I’m sleepwalking all the time and my feelings are muted & my reactions are fake.
Can anybody help me with this? Is this just a side effect of depression? I’m not even sure if I’m really typing this right now, like if I wake up in a whole new country with a different family I’d go with it and believe all this was a dream.
I don’t know how to get out of this state, and I don’t know what this is.

It might be one of the effects of depression. But to be sure, you need to visit a doctor and find out what's going on

I agree with Mickey. It might be a good idea to be evaluated.

I don’t know—I would post it in dissociative disorders section and see what they think
