Numb

It only takes one sentence, one word to 'trigger' me. Most of the time I do not even notice until its too late. I start off feeling fine, then a few hours later I begin to feel tired, which quickly changes to exhausted. I then attempt to go to sleep, but am usually left just laying awake. People ask me if I am okay, to which I respond yes...but really I don't know. How am I feeling? Who am I? Where am I? What am I? I feel like an alien, the body I am currently in does not belong to me. I feel distant. I feel alone. I feel cold. I feel numb. My arms and legs seem to be working, and it appears like I exist, yet I no longer feel present. This feeling can last anywhere from a few hours to a few days. I just wait...and wait... then all of a sudden I am back wondering where I went and I just move on like nothing happened. People ask how I am feeling. I am alone, cold, and numb.
