Is there a word for when you feel like you're not you, that you're on !


Question: Is there a word for when you feel like you're not you, that you're on auto pilot or something?
i get this feeling sometimes, and its weird, and id like to know if its called anything. it only lasts a couple of seconds, but it feels so weird. It feels like im watching someone else in first person, if that makes any sense.

It might be what's called a mild dissociative state, which can take the form of depersonalization or derealization.

These sites explain it a little more, and gives you a starting point to research a little deeper:

It's rather a complicates subject, so rather then me waffle on here, I thought it was best to give you some starting links.
