Depersonalization

Subjective feeling of detachment or unreality regarding one's own self, thoughts, feelings, body, or actions. A person may feel like a robot, an outside observer of their life, 'not in their own body', or that their emotions are blunted/do not belong to them. Often occurs together with derealization as part of a dissociative experience.
