Am I overthinking???

I had a panic attack 37 weeks pregnant and had an outer body experience, I felt as though I was not real, it was scary. I googled symptoms and it came up with things like deperilisation and derilsation which some people feel like that everyday of their lives, I feel like every day since that panic attack I’m not real? Anyone else experienced this.

Show your support

I remember I had this feeling when I was a teenager , it was very strange feeling after I came back to reality...really weird

It’s horrible nastia, have you had it since

I agree with you, it was very strange and I think lasted for a while, like couple of days...I did not have it after

I had a lot of panick attacks at that time

Maybe see a doctor or the midwife to talk about it, how you feeling, what's making you feel anxious, I guess it's better to get seen earlier on for this as postpartum may add another layer of stress and anxiety, just so that you get all the support you need for you and your health and your birth too

Had this after giving birth , my girls now 2 and I do feel much better than I did , took me atleast a year to feel more in reality

What was your symptoms Sophie if you don’t mind me asking, just wanting to hear other people’s experiences x

@Nastia did it only last a few days?

I can't really remember now, it was years ago, but for sure couple of days BTW, do you take any antidepressants?

@Nastia I don’t
