i overthink reality and people and how my mind works and myself. i think about how i should feel/ do other people sense the world the same way and i overthink social structures. my perceptions of reality shifts during the day a lot. and i can't find a core sense of self to rely on. it feels like life just happens and I'm watching a movie most of the time unable to live my life just observing the events in it. its freaking me out and has been on going for about a year after i stopped smoking weed. i remember i may have had similar thoughts / experiences before i started using drugs but I'm not sure of anything anymore. my memories are like snapshots of other people and i don't feel like i was present in them and over all my memory is dogshit. i just want it to end and be grounded in reality and spend time with my family and be present again because i know they want the "old me" back as well.

i think it may be depersonalisation/ dissociation that was triggered by weed because i had a traumatic childhood
