This has happened to me twice this week. When I wake up I feel this sense of pure unimaginable terror, dread and doom. It's as if I had been unplugged from the matrix or my soul was ripped out of my body. Words cannot describe this feeling and its as if I was in entirely different state of mind similar to a bad acid trip. I didn't know who I was, where I was, that I was human, or even my name. Just terror. As time goes on it's becoming more difficult for me to recall the experience as if my mind doesn't want me to remember it. When this happens I jolt up out of bed and run as fast as I can outside only for it to go away in about 10 seconds. I don't know what I'm experiencing and I've only really found one person online that matched exactly what I went through. https://www.reddit.com/r/Anxiety/comments/tgxyy/rant_help_freaking_out_feel_trapped As explained in that post I linked, something else happened that was very disturbing as well. The first time it happened I could not for the life of me get back to sleep. As the day went on, It felt like I had been repeating the same day over and over again with constant deja vu. Whenever somebody would say something or when I would do something I would immediately get the sense that it had happened before. I also got the sense I could predict things before they happened and it got so bad I that I would actively try to prevent my premonitions from happening. For example I would walk into a room and ask my dad something but before I would even speak it was like I felt like I had already asked him this same thing in the past, so this would prompt me to say something else or just not talk to him at all as I was afraid I was just repeating a loop. The world didn't seem real, and I felt detached from my whole body. I've felt this experience before in the past on marijuana and after panic attacks but this was on a level I had never experienced before. Time was also very distorted. The whole day felt like I was in it for a week or two, and when I try to remember past Tuesday when it happened it really does feel like a few weeks ago even though it was just last Monday. After being up for over 24 hours I went to sleep and when I woke up all of the deja vu was gone and for the most part everything seemed relatively normal. Does anyone have any idea what happened to me? I messaged the guy in the thread as it's 100% exactly what I went through and he said it was anxiety. But it just feels like something so much more. I didn't know anxiety could be this strong and make me feel and think things that I thought were never possible. I went to the hospital a few months ago after a panic attack and there was nothing wrong with me as far as they could see, had a blood test, EKG, chest-xray, urine test. The only thing they didn't check was my brain. I've called my doctor, therapist and psychiatrist and they have no idea what to make of it. This is the best I've been able to describe this experience. I'm scared and can't stop obsessing about what happened. I need closure. Please help.
This seriously sounds like anxiety.The out of body deja vu experience sounds like derealization…do you take any meds for anxiety?
SOUNDS like you may have had a severe case of depersonalization with severe panic that can be caused by chronic severe anxiety and stress.depersonalization is when you feel detached from your self and it can be mild or severe.
One thing that may give you peace of mind is by getting an MRI of the head. and yes, anxiety and stress can cause all kinds of symptoms including the ones you mentioned.
Anxiety Can cause very weird thoughts to occur including déjà vu, very negative thoughts, and fear.
The brain is a very complex organ and when it is over stressed, it will definitely let you know. My suggestion would be to see if your doctor would order an MRI, speak with a neurologist who can better explain this. that is what I did.
I have had to a lesser degree some of the things you went through. so have many other people.
you are not alone!
If you are ever feeling panicky, there is immediate relief with a short meditation on YouTube called stop panic attack now!
Follow what they say to do. I do hope you feel better soon and try to do things that relax your mind. 
i get this to.
a story ive got to tell is wired. id been having de ja vu for years but on my wedding night i had an episode which freaked my wife out. we had just gone upstairs to our hotel room after the wedding and we got changed. the room looked strangely familar to me( this was the first time id entered the room ) and as looked around my wife said il be back. i said yeah i know your going for a shower. she said how did you know that?
i said i dont know i just do. any my wife came out the shower and found me staring at a wedding basket and said are you ok, to where i said i dont know but ive seen this basket in this setting before. she said thats impossible this is your first time in this room. i then said your oldest daughter is going to walk in the room anytime now and ask for her jumper in the top drawer of your side cabnet. just as i finished talking her daughter walked in and said ive come for my jumper its cold. my wife looked at me in shock and said how did you know where the jumper was and how did you know she was going to walk in. again i said i dont know but i feel like ive been here and done this before. i suddenly got waves over my body as anxiety set in because i did not understand why this was happening. my normal bouts of de ja vu are from past memories but this one was a bit of both future and past as i felt id been here before. ive had all the tests done which all came back normal. the doctors dont know what to make of it.
That sounds like a horrible experience christopher. The way you describe it makes me think your dopamine levels are messed up somehow. I’ve had similar complaints in the past myself and found out that my dopamine levels were subpar. Have you been under a lot of stress lately or are you sleep deprived? Do you play video games a lot? Drink a lot of alcohol? Is it possible that you have nutritional deficiencies, especially vitamin B6, B12 and iron? These could all contribute to the symptoms you describe, especially if you are susceptible to anxiety.
Did your doctor, psychologist and psychiatrist offer you any help? I hope so, you sound like you could need some support, even if they have no clue about what is going on.
Try not to worry too much and get as much rest as you can, go to sleep on time and don’t exhaust yourself in any way.
Take care, and let us know how it goes.
wow
this happens to me i tell my boyfriend that i know it sounds crazy but i feel like i can come out of the matrix and detach myself from reality but its a horrible feeling like my soul is being sucked out
