Everything is getting so WEIRD

hey, I've been on a medication lately, but things have gotten a lot more weird than before, I feel like I'm always unconscious, I don't know how to describe it, but I also feel like I'm not the same person since a month or two. And also, things like T.V shows, or other stuff that I've known for a long time feels unfamiliar, and as a matter of fact, almost everything feels unfamiliar. I just hate feeling like this, and it's really, really *****.

Yeah, definitely talk to your doctor as soon as you can.  it sounds like you are experiencing some depersonalization.  This is a common effect anxiety has on people.  If you type in the search bar in Medhelp 'depersonalization' you will come up with tons of posts about it.  You can look through and read some of them and it may help or comfort you.  It could be that this medication isnt for you, or it could be that it just needs more time to regulate in your body.  Good luck!

How long have you been on the medication and what is it?
I strongly advise talking with your doctor. Most meds come with some side effects and we all react differently. Sometimes a particular medication just doesn't work for us and we have to try another. Read some posts and you'll see that many of us have been in your shoes. Please do not just stop whatever you are taking.........see your doctor and discuss your options.
I wish you the very best
Peace
