It's hard to explain, but I've had it a couple times at least. Once, when I was at Home Depot with a friend about a month and a half ago, he was fooling with something. I think I was standing there, looking at him expectantly, when all of a sudden I had this strange sensation, accompanied by fatigue, that felt like my all the veins in my body were palpitating and I could hear my breathing. Immediately, I detached from the situation by going for a walk, and when I did it stopped and I felt better.

Then last Monday, I was with my mum when we went for a walk and I was watching her inspecting something, and then suddenly I had the same sensation again. When I detached, retreating into my mind, I felt better.

This has happened other times, like when watching my parents work at cleaning as I expected them to involve me, etc.

Has anyone else had this?
