Talk:What Happens When We Aren't Looking?/@comment-18736543-20131226075752

I have a true story that's scarier, but only if you've experienced it too, but its not as fun at all. But not creepy enough or weird or unusual enough to warrant a story. Or very long for that matter.

If I look into a mirror, I dread looking into my eyes in the reflection. This instantly causes intense depersonalizaiton - In an instant, my perception warps and I feel like I do not exist or am not real. I figured out how to deal with this illusion years ago, to the point where it only momentarily bugs me. But when it first happened I cannot even begin to explain the dread. its an odd feeling, being unsure if you exist.

If this has happened to you, you know what I mean. Unnerving is a good way to describe it. Luckily it is just an illuison. I shave in the shower to avoid this. the tiny cuts are worth it.
