Thanks for sharing your story as well. I mentioned my version of this in a sibling comment, and seem to have experienced some aspects of both experiences, but it took longer for me to snap. Recovery has been gradual, and I have much work to do, but one thing that I’ve found really helpful is directly examining what it means to be conscious. “Waking up” by Sam Harris was the start of a rabbit hole for me. This exploration gave me tools to reframe certain experiences as “the contents of consciousness” and helped me start to step outside outside of myself for the first time in my life. It’s no silver bullet, and YMMV, but I’ve found it incredibly helpful.
