I spend most of my life like that. 95% + in lectures and things. hours and hours go by and ive done nothing but stare at the wall. im never fully present in anything.


It scares me a little, because I can never remember what I do during those zoned out hours and it's not pleasant.

:sadnod: happens to me a fair bit. Often when I'm walking. I was told its some sort of migraine. .. but yes it's definitely worth mentioning

It's not a migraine, that's why I wear glasses. It's different.

me neither. I don't really think about it anymore, just one of those things I guess. part of the fact I cant concentrate or really think about anything so I just constantly switch off

Firstly - IAPT - Improving Access to Psychological Therapies
CMHT - Community Mental Health Team
Psychiatrist - normally works under CMHT
It looks like the best thing has happened really - she cant tell you if you've got a PD. And if you went under CMHT and they thought you had a PD you'd be seeing a psychiatrist anyway. You being straight up saves an awful lot of crap, trust me - I found out the very, very hard way.


Thank you for your reply, felt a bitt overwhelmed

That's understandable but you're in the best position. I wish I'd been referred straight to a psych, would have prevented the most terrifying 8 week crisis and the 13 months it took to get a diagnosis. Wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Not so much anymore but I used to lose hours staring at a wall and not really remember what happened. As you said, not pleasant but I sometimes found it was better than reality, like Scary said.

Sorry I'm not really reading or responding to posts. Something's happened to my Internet - it's slower than it was and TSR is hellish to use due to so many pop-ups. Anyone know how to make the pop-ups go away? I've adjusted my pop-up blocker Internet settibgs to high and downloaded uni antivirus software, but to no avail :sigh:

download the adblock plus extension?
First session with the counsellor went well! Feeling a lot less stressed and anxious already. I'm one step closer to fully getting rid of my phobias and anxiety for good :smile:

not good at all tbh. oh well

:console: Anything I can do?


Original post by CescaD96
Does anyone else here just "switch off"? Like you're there physically but not mentally, and you stare out into the distance? It happens to me a lot, and sometimes it makes me dizzy, pale or feel ill. I can sit in class for an hour and not have any notion about what is going on.

Should I mention this at my mental health assessment this Friday along with everything else?

I do this a lot. As others have said, definitely worth mentioning :yep:

Alright :smile:

I feel so dead inside, haven't gone to uni again today so including when I didn't go in on Thursday (not in on Fridays anyway) I've missed 10 hours of teaching :s-smilie: At least I'm earning that attendance email I got :tongue: I'm desperate to leave again but can't because I've already signed a contract for a flat next year :s-smilie:


That happens to me too. Definitely worth mentioning I'd say.

:hugs: Not sure what to say but you'll be alright- having te contract signed is possibly a good thing, so that you have to think about any decision rather than it just being a spur of the moment thing? Not sure, I've possibly not explained that very well. I'm around if you want to talk though.

Hmm, you could try scriptblocker but it's a pain in the ass to use with many websites. You could try asking in the computer forum?
