    I have this exact thing here and there and n ever think you're going crazy because you aren't and you wont. I'm not just saying that either i have been thinking that at work for about an hour and was worried i would be lost in my mind but the good thing is it always passes and the more you convince your self that you're normal and your not crazy, its hard but over time. i hope you get something figure and maybe i helped a little but you can do it!

    anxiety can absolutely do that! It’s similar to derealization. that’s where anxiety causes a person to feel like nothing is real or familiar. it’s actually where your brain is trying to protect you from the outside world when you have anxiety. It will pass.

    your reaction to it is very important. Try to have a relaxed attitude when it happens. Tell yourself it’s not harmful, it will pass,. The more you worry about it the more it will happen. You’re going to be OK. I’ve had that many times. Do you things to relax your mind and stay busy.
