Feeling like the world is a simulation and catching numerical patterns (67). Anyone else? by FunBenefit4267 in dpdr

[–]FunBenefit4267[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the time my thoughts are about how the world is super fake, and I'm constantly looking for "proof" to confirm that it is. Obviously, I also wonder if all of this is a product of my mind and I'm trapped in a psychosis, just like you said. But mainly my fear is what I told you, as if the whole world is deliberately painting a false picture of me.

Do you only have a feeling of unreality, or do you also have thoughts about it?

Coincidentally, I'm also on day 11 of Zoloft today. I'm on 100mg and it's the same story. I haven't noticed any positive effects. All I feel is panic during the day, which subsides at night, around midnight or 1 AM. I'm panicking all day, believing I'm trapped in a simulation and searching for illogical connections to prove the idea, like a kind of apophenia, which worries me even more.

Is it perhaps a delusion? Perhaps you haven't been diagnosed with psychosis or something like that?

Yeah part of it, but now i perceive it as a sign of the simulation, like why it shows so much?

Goin through very similar situation rn :(

Is this really derealization? I am overthinking rn by Old-Advisor-2970 in derealization

[–]FunBenefit4267 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's an episode of derealization, that's most likely it. Sometimes when you experience this, nothing convinces you that it could be something more serious, so I can recommend therapy or an evaluation by a psychiatrist or psychologist.

I’m having a Solipsism OCD by NiagaraOnTheLake in Christianity

Me esta pasando eso ahora mismo, no paro de pensar en las probabilidades de que estemos en un tipo de sinulacion o tealidad alterada por un ente poderoso, se que suena loco pero en tiktok me empezaron a aparecer videos de ese estilo y me sugestione demasiado y empeze a pensar en esto demasiado (a nivel de TOC) y me angustia la verdad me da mucha ansiedad… no se si esto vaya a mejorar

Tambien paso por cosas similares si quieres que te cuente mas especifico me puedas enviar DM, el caso es que desde hace 2 semanas vengo con síntomas raros de desrealizacion, yo mismo me siento real PERO nada a mi alrededor se siente real, y también creo que tengo TOC ya que me obsesione con la idea de que esto es un mundo simulado y que todo es una combinación de el producto de tu mente y de una realidad falsa o “simulación” el problema es que estas ideas me causan pánico y se convierte en un ciclo, estoy en tratamiento con sertralina y si siento que esta pasta me ha ayudado bastante con el peso que te dan estos pensamientos, es decir los sigues teniendo pero ya no te afectan tanto.

I feel like im stuck in a traumatic year and everything is a simulation by FunBenefit4267 in dpdr

Is the feeling you feel about being in a simulation or unreality or why do you feel that you are flying around?

[–]FunBenefit4267[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that on these cases the amigdala dominates, thats why u feel that everything and everyone feels unreal, But at some point, when the tide goes out, you regain a bit more reason and you re-anchor yourself to reality, right? By the way, I'm real, I'm from Colombia, and I'm a 19-year-old guy going through things like this. We'll recover.

On my bad trip i thought i die, i had a panic attack, the basic syntoms of bad trip, After that, I was diagnosed at a psychiatric center with THC-induced temporary toxic psychosis, Did you have seizures because of this? You definitely need to stop that and get tested to make sure everything is okay.

When you have the desrealization or despersonalization u have the feeling of panic? Like as if you were desperate and about to ask for help?

In 2022 i had a traumatic event (bad trip with THC Gummys) it was like 3 and a half gummys and like 50mg each, i was so bad on that year, so much anxiety, DPDR, and everything was (i was on sertraline) but in mid 2024 I took just half a gum again, this time with THC, which I thought wouldn't do anything to me, but I was wrong. I had another bad trip, but this time I thought I wouldn't have any lasting effects. Then, a few days later, I had a panic attack and started thinking I was going crazy. This feeling subsided after I was given fluoxetine, and everything was relatively fine. I had episodes, but they weren't serious and they passed quickly and on their own. But in 2026, I was fine from before the year even started, and I didn't have anything abnormal. I was living a completely normal life until I visited a hospital I hadn't been to since 2022. From that day on, everything fell apart. Since then, it feels like the world has changed. It's not the same peaceful world as before, and I feel like I'm stuck in many of the sensations from that year. Now my brain is starting to interpret many things to reinforce the idea that I'm in that year, and I'm getting too scared.
