From a young woman in the U.S.: I cannot tell the difference between things that are real and not real. My memories seem like a drunken memory (I don’t drink) and one minute I could be fine and the next I can’t tell if what just happened, actually happened. It is like my brain just restarted and I won’t know what happened.
I also feel like I don’t belong in this world or universe. I feel like I am special or that I was just meant for a different universe. It is really weird and I feel crazy. I don’t know what is wrong with me. Please help me.
A: I wish you had told us whether this is a recent problem. If so, the first thing to do is to see your medical doctor. There are a number of medical issues that can create this type of confusion. It can also be a symptom of a sleep disorder.
If your doctor says you are physically fine — or if this is a long-standing problem — then please see a therapist for a diagnosis and help. Not being able to sort out real and imagined memories could make trouble for you in the future.
I wish you well.
