Sometimes I feel like a ghost--as if I already died years ago--and that the world around me doesn't actually exist. It's hard to put into words. Does anyone else know this feel? The clouds in the sky look painted on. The trees move as if they're following a script.
it's called derealization, the feeling like you don't exist is depersonalization. I had it in highschool

Yeah, I feel like this rather often.
sort of like the feeling of living with one foot in the grave
you cheated death and you can feel him wising up to the scam
you've got the underworld vision and it's overlaying the corporeal

Indeed, it does feel like I am in the "underworld," or a separate layer of reality. I never thought I'd see someone articulate that feeling before. But it's nice to know I'm not alone.

you are living in a simulated reality
they don't even bother keeping the graphics consistent for you though. you aren't worth it to them
You die twice in your life. One time is when you stop breathing and the second is when no one says your name.

That's a pretty fantastic claim. I've thought about it, but it seems like a delusion. Although, neither science nor religion offer an adequate explanation for creation, and the complexity of the human mind proposes more questions than it answers. Sometimes I wonder if we're a god divided into billions of different consciousnesses. But that's just speculation. All I know is none of it feels quite right... but I'm too skeptical to look very far into it.
