I feel like there is this invisible bubble around me, and I have a bunch of knives on hand in attempt to "pop the bubble" and be "normal". But one knife is missing from the set and if I can just get a hold of the missing knife which has the sharp capabilities to pop this stubborn bubble I'll break free. Anyone else feel this way? It pisses me off to be honest

Yes, I understand what you mean. I feel the same way, often, and it pisses me off too. I don't know if I can offer any advice though. I try to stay connected with people as much as possible, that seems to help, but on bad bubble days I can't connect with people at all and have to remain inside the bubble. (I call it AS box)
Sorry, not much help, but I've read others members here posting about the bubble/box/barrier feeling too, so maybe it will help you knowing you're not alone in this.

I have this feeling sometimes, too. What I have discovered about my "normal bubble" is that sometimes, it brilliantly protects me from having a meltdown. The door seems to shut sometimes, just before I get to the point of desperately needing to run out of the room in full meltdown status.

Yes, I feel just like this all the time. I'm always searching for that missing knife! Tell me if you ever find yours.
