@Queenie I am trying really hard but i keep having panic attacks and the problem is i keep thinking that i have to hurt other people and myself to get out of this fake world but i dont want to hurt others and i dont know what to do i am really agitated and the ones who watch me have put something in my head and i can feel them putting things in my head and taking things out and it is really uncomfortable and i am scared because if i try and leave and they find out before i make it back to the real world then they will really really hurt me and i am so scared.

Oh @Eden1919 I wish that there was something we, as a forum, could do for you to help you. Normally I would say to try and reach out to those who can support you in reality, but I know that this is seemingly impossible for you right now. Please know I am listening and I care.

TRUST is a big issue for us all @Eden1919. Experiencing a sense of unreality is a sign that you have not been able to trust, but it is impportant to be on the look out for reasons to trust as opposed to reasons to doubt.
Feeling vulnerable and watched intensifies our pain. It is difficult to give any words of wisdom without understanding your circumstances as they come off trite .. and meaningless and can also be damaging if not relevant to your circumstances.
I have been offline for a day and half.
Peer support is an important ideal. We all give and take and learn through the mutual sharing. I spent time in orphanages where I remember a lot of children doing a lot of caring things for each other and taking responsibility for their pleasure and their pain. We all had experienced many signifcant crises. But they were different. No point sending a fire truck out to a flood when they need boats.
Look around on the other threads too .. and experience different ways of feeling and responding to the posts.
