Answer 1

i have the same problem and i'm the same age.

sometimes when someone talks to me, and says something like 'i'm going to cvs i'll be back soon' i'll respond and be like 'kay, bye.'

but it wasn't, well it was, but it wasn't actually me.

so i'll call them and be like 'where are you?'

i don't know what it is, but i'm just not present, like you said.

Answer 2

Sounds like you don't feel real. Sometimes feeling unreal is a way to defend yourself against something you are afraid to know. It is okay to not know what your feelings are about but sometime you will start to know. just don't push yourself.

Answer 3

maybe you have ADD.

Just breath and mentally remind yourself of what you're doing and focus.

learn to live for the moment..example...your at the beach and swimming in the water but all you can think about is getting a Popsicle then you get out go  get a Popsicle and all you can think about is laying in the sun you go lay in the sun and you do something else and so on...learn to listen,feel see use your senses to enjoy...it something feels good really feel it...living for the moment
