Do you think you were feeling "depersonalization" or "derealization?"

Those are topics that pop up in our forum quite a bit, as well,...they're pretty commonly experienced. And no matter how seasoned we are with experiencing anxiety, any time we get those unexpected "dream-like" experiences, it can still be a little unsettling.

If you do a search on those 2 words, you'll probably be inundates with previous posts with concerns just like those you mentioned.

It's strange, kind of spooky at times, a tad unnerving, and just all around bizarre....but it is not uncommon. In that regard, many of us, including myself, are familiar with this. (I still get them).

EDIT: I'm also anemic and I also take iron pills....I have regular, routine lab work, and sometimes my iron tabs need to be taken 3 x day, sometimes 2 x day. Here's an important hint that my doctor gave me: Take them with vitamin-C for better absorption! (Whod'a thunk it?) I didn't know about that, but now,....I always make sure to take the 2 together. I've been taking iron supplements for over 2 years. (In my situation, I can tell they definitely work!)

They are scary, I understand.

I know how strange this sounds, but have you tried to let it ride out,....acknowledge them, believe in yourself, and know that these are temporary experiences and they will pass....

Like being on a carousel....everything feels mushed together,...but it does eventually stop! :)

I get that too rather frequently when my anxiety is kickin up.
One of the symptoms is to be in a dreamlike state.
I know its hard but try to practice equanmity.
