Dissociation

Most of the time, I’m stuck in my head, lost in fantasy. It honestly feels more stable and easier to deal with than actually being present in real life.

What really throws me off is when that state suddenly snaps and I become super aware that I’m real—that I have a body, a past, responsibilities, and a life I’m supposed to be living. I don’t really like the feeling of having a constant “self,” and sometimes my own body just feels weird or uncomfortable.

Even when things are objectively okay, I still get this recurring sense of doom and discomfort just from being present. The dissociation and self-awareness also make it hard to focus, so even simple tasks end up taking way longer than they should.

Time feels really strange too. Sometimes it flies by, other times it drags on forever. Days can start to feel like the same loop over and over: reality → escapism → interruption → back to reality.

The problem is that escapism is starting to feel like the only way I can actually tolerate being here. Games, books, manga, and other things I used to enjoy don’t really grab me anymore or feel rewarding, so going into my head is just the easiest option.

I’m not really sure how much of this is dissociation, anhedonia, or something else. I guess I’m just wondering if anyone else goes through a similar cycle—especially that feeling of being more comfortable in your head than in your actual life.

Months of avolition/anhedonia. How do you deal with it

For the past few months I've had almost no motivation to do anything. Usually there is enough to get by things.

. Recently I became interested in medicine and read several chapters in detail, then the interest disappeared overnight. Now I can't focus for long and studying feels impossible.

The same thing has happened with everything else. I don't enjoy games anymore. I can't finish a movie without pausing it and coming back days later. Most of my free time is spent scrolling my phone looking for something engaging, but nothing really is.

Drawing is probably the thing I'm most interested in relative to everything else, but I usually stop during the preparation stage before I even begin due to lack of drive or will.

Has anyone here experienced something similar? If so, what actually helped?

[SPOILERS] What major content might I still have left to explore in Disco Elysium?

I feel like I've seen most of what Disco Elysium has to offer, but I'm curious what major content I still have left.

Across my playthroughs I've:

- Solved the murder completely, including the culprit, motive, confession, and reconstruction of the shooting.

- Found the Insulindian Phasmid and got the photograph.

- Completed the church questline and danced at the rave.

- Investigated the Pale hole in the church.

- Seen both Ruby outcomes (suicide and escape).

- Finished the Tribunal and passed the authority check there.

- Met the Mega Rich Light-Bending Guy in the container.

- Ended up with absurd amounts of net worth through shares (around a billion reál on paper).

- 360 kicked Measurehead.

- Went on the boat ride/walk with Lilienne.

- Sang karaoke.

- Collected the hanged man's armor.

- Talked extensively with Joyce and explored the Pale/world lore.

- Punched Cuno and also did the Empathy-related interactions with him.

- Played Physical-focused and Intellect-focused builds.

- Completed the Communist political vision quest.

- Got various copotypes including Sorry Cop, Boring Cop, Art Cop, Law Jaw, etc.

- In another run Harry identified himself as an ultraliberal, though Evrart basically told him he wasn't really one.

As far as I remember, I completed every quest the game gave me.

At this point, what major questlines, endings, companion routes, hidden content, or significant story content have I likely missed?
