I felt like I was being totally in a movie,
like I was desensitized, I was depersonalized at work
and I was watching everything sort of happen around me,
and I was just thinking, "This cannot be normal.
This has got to be a stress reaction.
Something else is going on here,"
and it just got to the point where I felt like I was
really retracting, not just physically, I guess,
but somehow mentally I was getting to the point
where I was hiding that way as well.
So I was physically avoiding things,
but I was starting to mentally sort of avoid things
and I felt like I was sort of, I don't know
who will understand this, but I felt like I was sort of
hiding within myself, and only about 30% of me
was actually participating in anything any more,
I was just that full of anxiety.
