Weird feeling

web-toedchloe by web-toedchloe · Sep 16, 2003 · 171 views · Journal

Ever have one of those days when it seems like you're not really doing what you're doing? Like you're just watching yourself from far away?

I think it's because I didn't go to work yesterday, I stayed home and watched The Simpsons on DVD. I couldn't sleep, but I was exhausted. I didn't fall asleep util about 1am, I was thinking about everything that happened this weekend. That's the worst: when you know you have to get up early, but you just can't fall asleep. I knew I'd have to get up at 4am to take Katie and Mike to the airport (I miss them already!) but I couldn't turn off my brain. I got a free muffin for my taxi service and got home from Newark Int'l just in time to grab a shower and drive to work. The ride seemed weirder than usual. It's like my car drove itself and I was just watching.

All day here at work I've been in some kind of haze. Has this ever happened to you? Share your drugged experiences.

I feel like that occasionally...Like I'm in a dream world or something, or my head is all cloudy

I think I've experienced this. Has been a long time tho. I wonder what causes this? Or what it really _is_

have you ever felt like when your doing something you've already done it? like you've seen yourself doing something and a couple of days later your actually doing it?

de jas vous?

I did a talk on that once; de jas vous actually has it's roots in reincarnation, so we should try not to say it to anyone that doesn't know we're kidding. I've confused a couple return visits.

Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time.
I think I've forgotten this before.

yea, that was just a few weeks ago...i thought that was interesting..thats why some people have thought they've lived another life because they feel like they've been some place they known they've never been to before.

thatdarngirl #6 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I feel like this all the time, for lack of a better term I just call it either an 'out of body experience' or being in a 'bubble'.

tesoro #7 tesoroOG 2001

yea, definatly has happend to me..it's either when i'm extremely tired or really stressed out about something and cant stop thinkin about it..i feel like i'm in a haze..

sometimes when i'm driving too, i dont feel like i'm driving..it's weird..(we just talked about this court hah)

tinser #7.1 tinserOG 2002

yeah, i know! Only i take it to a different exteme...on certain very rare occasions i forget i'm walking and feel like i'm out of my body then too

thatdarngirl #7.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I do this when driving all the time. I drove a whole road length once and just like..realized that I was on the highway without remember driving there.

fivezero #7.2.1 fivezeroOG 2003

i definitely know how this feels. all of my friends are so spread out across creation that sometimes it feels like i've spent the weekend driving. and more than a few times i've zoned out on the parkway or turnpike and i come to my senses as i pull into the my driveway and i'm like: i don't remember one second of the last 45 minites. but DANG do i sleep well after one of those zone-out dealies.

reality.......what a concept

hunkpapap #9 hunkpapapOG 2003

actually, sometimes when you are tired, really, really tired, the tiredness has a narcotic-like effect...

malibu #10 malibuOG 2001

i have pockets of time where its like i'm watching myself do something and then in my mind i'm thinking about why am i doing this? i should be doing soemthing else. i already did this.

or be someplace and not rememer how you got there or what you're talking about with a person.
