[wh...] Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 For half a year I've had the Sensation that every day my physical awareness gradually reduced itself to the Point where I barely percieve anything except that I am aware. My brain ist functioning Like I haven't slept in a year. I can barely read, process what somebody days or Just instead of fully Processing what ist Happening I can Only process Like a very tiny Bit & this has been progressive I feel awake and completely asleep at the Same time. I did Not know where to Post it but has anybody ever read something Like this? As it's Not Just a minor issue but it literally affects absolutely everything I do & I have no Idea why IT IS Happening and doesn't Seem to Stop progressing.. This is so beyond what I thought is possible Has anybody an Idea? Been on benzos for 1,5 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Fo...] Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Hi A search of benzo and cognitive issues gives you this. Can you see a life without benzos??

[wh...] Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 Hi, I've Seen the study before. But for me it's Not merely cognitive. My whole awareness is affected. Like I can barely See Details or my brain is automatically Filtering Out cars, time perception & Other people when I am Out, which never happened before. Also I am barely aware of the weather or anything outside me when I am inside.. I thought this is Just derealization but it progressed Like 100x over the last 6 months, it severely affects my functioning because I my information Processing ist 1/100 from what it used to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Fo...] Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Do tell your doc won't you? Could be withdrawal but other things can do this. Best wishes Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[se...] Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 i have the same sensation but i am on klonopin as well as suffering from a brain injury so i can't say it's the same reason as yours. it could be either thing or both, but i do know what you mean, it's hard to explain the lack of awareness feeling. you're just there. not really actively involving yourself in the environment around you. your eyes are open, but you're not 'looking'.
