Weird consciousness?

Question

Why do I always feel like I'm dreaming or something? It's hard to explain but I don't feel like I'm really "there" sometimes. It almost seems like I'm kind of daydreaming while I'm watching everyone else in their "normal" consciousness... I really don't know how to explain it

Answer 1

Thoughts are being presented to our consciousness continuously.  We just need to understand that we need not respond to these egocentric pleas.

Instead, we can choose to be aware of, rather than focused on, these thoughts, and, if necessary, relegate many of them to the background of our consciousness.

We sometimes need to focus more intently on what's going on around us, rather than only overly contemplating our current thought processes.
