Just wondering if anyone has ever got rid of the drunk/stoned, out of it feeling. Not really dp/dr but just more spaced out i think im not really sure. Im not sure if this is anxiety related but i hope so. I think i have read of poeple having it but i never read of anybody getting rid of it so im just looking for some hope. thanks everyone

hmm i dont really know i just went through an episode of dp/dr and i guess i just still keep asking myself if i feel weird or something but i think i do. Its like im kinda drunk or stoned just really out of it. I have been taking 12.5 mg of paxil for a about two months except i quit it about a week ago cold turkey. i felt like this on the paxil though so i dont think it was a side effect. Anyways i just plain feel weird or different like theres still something wrong with my perception..maybe its just because its been sooo long since i felt normal or something...hah man i dont know this anxiety stuff is to  much for me. well i was just wondering if anyone has felt this way and if they ever returned back to normal???

From what my psychologist tells me, its definitely a part of anxiety. I felt the same way for about 3 weeks. Spaced out/stoned. I am also on paxil and you just have to wait for it to "kick in". Now I feel great and I can actually go places now without feeling like a panic attack is gonna kill me.

Does anyones arms ever feel weird along with the panicky feeling? Like a numbness almost but it goes away when I calm down.

Does the drunk/stoned feeling really feel like heavy headedness or just completely out of it? If so I have been going through it in and out for a couple of days and it is always the worst at night.

yeah it kinda feels like heavy headedness and spaced out...im not really sure it feels like my head is full of something but i also feel a little spaced out..kinda like what you described enigmagirl...im not sure buts its been 24/7 for like a month or longer now....wish it would back off. Anybody ever get rid of it or did everyones just happen for a little while and go away?

I think you should really bring this up to doc you could have a few things going on but Anxiety is no doubt the culprit to begin with
STILL if I were you I would see a doc about all this ........
Take care and please keep us posted
