maya,
I'm sorry you are going through this, but I wanted to tell you that many of us have felt that way and have gotten better. If you feel dizzy, like you are moving or the world is moving around you, then it could be your ears. The reason you feel foggy headed and detached from the world, is because your brain is working over time to try and compensate for the bad signals it is getting from your vestibular system. Foggy headed feelings, lightheaded feelings, all of that is common with inner ear problems. Have your doctors told you it could be your ears? If so, then there is hope, and you will eventually feel better. It won't last forever. Try to get more tests, get some answers from your doctors. Good luck
