More or less, do you live your life as you, directly...
...or do 'you' more like, live your life in 3rd person, in your own head, as a kind of narrator or detached observer/commentator of what you are actually doing?
This is very rough and far from exact, but maybe that is a way of phrasing it that makes sense?
Its a kind of... detachment from your identity to the point that one sense of you does and feels things, but the other sense of 'you' is... above or outside of that, and that second 'you' is the perspective most of your internal monologue or thoughts... take place from.
Like uh, 'you' are not you, 'you' are embodying and attempting to direct and control a thing that looks like you, sort of like in a simulation or game or novel.
The severity and frequency which to you dissociate into you and 'you' are important:
It is totally normal to take a step back from time to time and try to look at yourself from an imagined objective perspective, or from the imagined perspective of another, as a way of self-analysis or reflection or self-critique or attempting to sympathize with someone else...
... but if this is your default, if you are basically always doing this, at all times, 24/7, to the point like you feel more like a pilot of a meat puppet...
You may want to see a therapist.
