Shrinking feeling

[Billyboyboo]

This shrinking feeling symptom... I've had for a while now, this morning I was walking to the store and as I walked, I felt as if I was shrinking felt like I was on the ground almost, anyone else have this??
Maybe it was just Anxiety, I don't know, but I felt ok once I got back home.
Thanks.

i get that when i am sick. coming down with a flu bug or fever or something. not sure if its related to my seizure disorder.

Some people get what they call "alice in wonderland sindrome"...a sense of things/self getting bigger/smaller...if you do a search of the forums on it you can compare and see if it is the same thing you are experiencing. HTH.

Hi, Billyboo,

Zoofemme is right. It's AIWS. Alice in wonderland syndrome feels kinda crazy.

When I get it my concept of body size doesn't warp, but the size of other things does. One of the things that really freaks me out is when the TV looks normal size, but the picture on it (especially printing) looks HUGE. Also sometimes time and speed goes really slowwwwwwwwwww.

Try out these strings on the forum:

Alice In Wonderland Syndrome
weird symptoms I had before I learned I had E

And try these links on the internet:

I have the feeling sometimes of shrinking into myself, not so much other things shrinking. I know, weird!

I don't know if this is the same type of thing, but sometimes before I have a sez the things in the room just don't look like they are in the right place. I think that the tv should be on another side of the wall, pictures are in different places and sometimes I feel like I'm somewhere totally different because everything just doesn't look right.

Endless, Yessss! The time feeling slow too!!! That's it.

Thanks everyone.
