Ever feel like you're watching your life as a POV movie?

The only time I feel in control of my actions is when I'm sitting on my ass on the computer, talking on the shroomery or whatnot else. When I'm out and about, walking down the street, I feel a disconnect. Anybody else?

sheekle your comments have gotten more and more meaningless lately 
At OP Yes I know exactly what your talking about, feels like my lifes on auto pilot a lot of times and I just watch stuff happen. The first time I tried a dissociative it made this feeling even more pronounced.

i might not be entirely meaningless. you know what you should do, Lizard. try and find your own meaning in things. just because you have an automatic pilot response to this common phenomenon, doesn't mean this is all that pivotal to over all point of this thread.
thread could be about some crazy shit... like how maybe when OP is not in his own domain, he "blacks out" so to speak, and goes to "the dark side", so to say... as in... his unconscious mind is becoming more prevalent in it's use and control of the body, then it is his conscious mind's control.

Yeah, it comes and goes in waves. Not many discussions I feel like contributing to as of late I think. Luckily, as I look into the ocean which contains the waves of the flow of life I can see a tsunami of sparkling excitement in my near future.

A lot of times I feel like i'm in auto pilot, and every once and a while i'll just wake up and be like "oh, well hey there parrott.." That's why I like psychedelics so much, I feel super conscious. The first time I did psychedelics was the first time I really felt like I "woke up" from my life. Ever since that point, I've been happier, more successful at just about everything, and improved myself in a ton of ways.

8 years ago when I was 18 and a freshman living in the dorms. I thought I was on a reality TV show.

I feel like im in a simulation. Like a giant computer simulation and im on metaphorical train tracks and im being guided by these tracks..sort of like the go carts at six flags. Damn things suck. When I die, I will be one with the rail road tracks again.
Another brick in the wall, if you will.

I felt like this sort of on anti depressants. Like I was a robot just going through the motions. I stopped taking them after 3 months. Never had a depression issue since.

Maybe because the drugs have rewired my brain to 'just be' thus making me feel like time is passing over me, or under me. Pick one.
As to answer the question of "how/why do drugs make me feel this way, and do I like it" is a whole different story.

well, technically, we're all "robots" with organic components. there is nothing for us outside our programming. so certainly using drugs is coping strategy for that fact, that you cannot control your own life. so you surrender yourself into the robot actions that control your willpower.

When I was a child I sometimes felt like that, especially when doing boring stuff. It was funny because I'd pretend like I was watching my life on TV and then critiquing it.
like:
"Dawks is walking to the bus-stop again. Seems like another repeat, wish they'd make some new episodes already" 
Good times.
